U.P. Law Dean Carlo Vistan and the U.P. Law LL.M School hosted the comprehensive presentation of Asian Development Bank (ADB) Anti-Corruption and Integrity Director Lisa Kelaart-Courtney on strategies to prevent corruption, before a full-house  audience consisting of judges, prosecutors, professors, banking lawyers, private practitioners, and U.P. Law students.

The cross-continent discussion yesterday over a virtual platform — the speaker addressing the lawyers from Australia — turned into a lively exchange with Dean Carlo Vistan posing  the interesting question:

— of whether or not the companies listed and published as de-barred ever sued the ADB.

The resource person also fielded thought-provoking questions on modern-day case studies and investigation procedures from the audience.

Matcha Green Tea Latte,

hot or cold: For a big, cold glass, dissolve one stick (see photo below, it’s placed beside a familiar strawberry packet so you can see the scale) in a small amount of room-temperature water, add a half-glass of vegan milk (you can use any kind of milk you like — i use almond milk, unsweetened ), don’t add sugar anymore because the ingredients list says “sugar, green tea”, (that’s all, just those two, no preservatives) … then fill the rest of the big glass with cold water. Then, stir, siempre.

It’s a refreshing, light drink with the aroma of tencha tea leaves from far-away mountains of cold climes.

It was delivered here by Grab Starbucks, one pack of five sticks (or five servings) at P315 with a P100-off discount or promo from Grab today for certain merchants (food outlets) so that’s only P43 or P63 for each serving of a big glass, in less than 30 minutes.

If you order via Lazada or Shoppee, it’s P399 for four servings with delivery fee on non-sale days delivered in three days. Take your pick — i’m sipping my matcha green tea from cold highland forests now.
