He was born from the rich clans of Henson, Suarez and Tayag in Pampanga. He is the president of Mother Earth, one of the pioneer meat processing firms in the region. But unlike other meat processors, Mother Earth stands up to its name.
Renato “Abong” Tayag Jr. or simply Tatang Abong as we dearly call him is not only an entrepreneur but likewise an environmentalist, agriculturist and advocate of development. I cannot remember a single soul who can say bad thing against Tatang Abong. This is because he is very kind, industrious and generous.
His numerous advocacies for environmental protection and agriculture speak of his leadership in various organizations in the region. These include Advocacy for the Development of Central Luzon (ADCL), PAMPRO, Taguete Foundation Inc., Regional Development Council, Metro Angeles Chamber of Commerce and Industry (MACCI) and Pampanga Chamber of Commerce and Industry.
Tatang Abong is almost 60. Of all the things that I have learned while working with him, the most prominent is his idea on the empowerment of the middle class. Tatang ABong believes that the middle class sector is the hope of the Philippine nation. This sector, he said, has the power to change the corrupt system of government because the middle class controls production and therefore has economic independence. The middle class can choose efficient and new breed of leaders.
And the biggest number of people that could become middle class as the farmers and fisherfolk. Tatang Abong said that given more opportunities, support and capital, the huge number in the agriculture sector can spin our country’s economy and eventually change politics and government.
Tatang Abong is just one of the many philanthropists in the country who are truly concerned on the general welfare of the public. He is one of the few who truly understands the dynamics of the local economy.
