Profile

Manuel V. Pangilinan (born July 14, 1946 in Manila, Philippines), also known as Manny Pangilinan and MVP, is a Filipino businessman. He is the Chairman of the Philippine Long Distance Telephone Company, from 1998 up to the present. He is also Chairman of TV5, Philex Mining, and Metro Pacific Investments Corporation (MPIC).

Pangilinan spent his elementary and high school days at San Beda College. He graduated cum laude from the Ateneo de Manila University with a Bachelor of Arts degree in Economics. He received his MBA degree in 1968 from the Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania.

Current investments

Pangilinan chairs the Philippine Long Distance Telephone Company (PLDT) which at the close of 2013 remained the most valuable company in the Philippines with a market capitalization of PHP 575.14 Billion or some. USD12.8 Billion. Pangilinan is himself more popularly known by his initials MVP, adding mystique to his already established reputation as tycoon, sports patron, and Philippine civic leader.

Pangilinan founded First Pacific in 1981 and served as its Managing Director until 1999. He was appointed as Executive Chairman until June 2003, when he was named CEO and Managing Director. Within the First Pacific Group, he holds the positions of President Commissioner of P.T. Indofood Sukses Makmur Tbk, the largest food company in Indonesia. He was named Chairman of Philippine Long Distance Telephone Company (PLDT), after serving as its President and CEO until February 2004.

Because of the nature of MPIC as an infrastructure development company under First Pacific Company Limited and based in the Philippines, many of Pangilinan's investments have to do with the management and operation of some of the country's important utilities that includes Meralco (Electric Distribution), Maynilad (Water) and Manila North Tollways Corp.

Pangilinan's MPIC earlier obtained control of the Manila Metro Rail Transit System and set some $350 million budget for an upgrade plan. Such plan is however pending given uncertainties in government policies over the privatization of the mass transit line.
