Description and symbolism:

The merlion is the historic representation of Manila where the Armiger was born. The fountain and leaf reflect his aspiration for health and environment preservation. As a physician and pharmacist, the Armiger believes in the sanctity of life.

Blue, particularly royal blue is the Armiger’s favorite color. White alludes to the coat he wears as a healthcare provider. To the Armiger, blue is a reminder of God’s sovereignty and wisdom just like the color of the sky above and the water below. Green is often associated with life and nature generally, and the academic hood of pharmacy and medicine, the Armiger’s fields of study, are shades of green.

The motto is the Latin translation of the meaning of the Armiger’s given name, meaning “The Lord will provide”.
