    The history of the Philippines is believed to have begun with the arrival of the first humans using rafts or primitive boats, at least 67,000 years ago as the 2007 discovery of Callao Man showed.[1] The first recorded visit from the West is the arrival of Ferdinand Magellan, who sighted the island of Samar Island on March 16, 1521 and landed on Homonhon Island (now part of Guiuan, Eastern Samar province) the next day. Homonhon Island is southeast of Samar Island. Before Magellan arrived, Negrito tribes inhabited the isles, who were subsequently joined and largely supplanted by migrating groups of Austronesians. This population had stratified into hunter-gatherer tribes, warrior societies, petty plutocracies and maritime-oriented harbor principalities which eventually grew into kingdoms, rajahnates, principalities, confederations and sultanates. The Philippine islands were greatly influenced by Hindu religions, literature and philosophy from India in the early centuries of the Christian era.[3] States included the Indianized Rajahnate of Butuan and Cebu, the dynasty of Tondo, the august kingdoms ofMaysapan and Maynila, the Confederation of Madyaas, the sinified Country of Mai, as well as the Muslim Sultanates of Sulu andMaguindanao. These small maritime states flourished from the 1st millennium.[4][5] These kingdoms traded with what are now called China, India, Japan, Thailand, Vietnam, and Indonesia.[6] The remainder of the settlements were independent Barangays allied with one of the larger states. Spanish colonization and settlement began with the arrival of Miguel López de Legazpi's expedition on February 13, 1565 who established the first permanent settlement of San Miguel on the island of Cebu.[7] The expedition continued northward reaching the bay of Manila on the island of Luzon on June 24, 1571,[8] where they established a new town and thus began an era of Spanishcolonization that…

    Singapore airlines (SQ) are one of the best and most famous airlines in the world with great service and great airplane with airbus and superbus. Singapore airlines began in 1947 with Malaysia airways. On 16 September 1963, the Federation of Malaysia was born and the Airline became known as Malaysian Airways. In May 1966, it became Malaysia-Singapore Airlines. In 1972, Malaysia-Singapore Airlines split up to become two entities - Singapore Airlines and Malaysian Airline System. That change was used to launch a new, more modern service approach on the airline. To house a special fleet of B747s, B727s, and DC-10s, the new Singapore Airlines also boasted a new airfreight terminal and a B747 hangar. In the1980s, the Singapore Airlines fleet continued to grow, in impressive and historic ways. It had the first A300 Superbus, the B747-300 Big Top, the B757 and the A310-200. We were also the first airline in the world to operate an international commercial flight across the Pacific Ocean with the 747-400 Megatop. In the 1990s, Singapore Airlines revolutionized inflight communications and entertainment through the KrisFone - the first global sky telephone service - and KrisWorld offerings. In 2000, Singapore Airlines placed 19 A380s and B777-200s in 2001. In 2004 Singapore Airlines was the first to operate the world’s longest non-stop commercial flight between Singapore and Los Angeles in February .In 25 October 2007, The A380, the world's largest commercial plane entered service with SQ. In 2010, Singapore Airlines was the first to offer free drinks and complimentary headsets. More recently, we pioneered inflight telecommunications services and unparalleled inflight luxury. In 2007, Singapore Airlines celebrated its 60th Anniversary and we are the first to put the world’s largest plane into service. This essay will discuss SWOT analysis from Singapore Airlines.

He had graduated in accountancy from the London School of Economics in 1987 and started working as Financial Controller at Virgin Communications London for two years, Senior Financial Analyst at Warner Music International London for three years, and returns to Malaysia and became the youngest Managing Director of Warner Director at Warner Music, as Regional Managing Director, ASEAN from 1996-1999 and Vice President, ASEAN until 2001 at Warner Music South East Asia. When Time Warner Inc. merged with America Online Inc., he quitted his job and starts his journey to fulfill his childhood dream. This idea is generated when he was studying in England and wanted to go home during term break but was rejected by his father because the flights tickets that time are expensive. Later, he started a company under the name of Tune Air Sdn Bhd to take over Air Asia, Malaysia’s second national carrier with the tagline “now everyone can fly”.…
