“AN ACT GRANTING PHILIPPINE CITIZENSHIP TO HSI PIN LIU”

EXPLANATORY NOTE

Mr. Hsi Pin Liu was born on December 5, 1968 and came from the Fujian Province of China. His
Parents were LAU, KAM MUK and HUANG, CHUN CHIAO. He has a younger brother named
LIU, HSI LIEN and together as one family, they all arrived here in the Philippines sometime in
June 1978.

His parents enrolled him at Davao Central High School where he commenced grade school
studies and his parents deliberately requested the school that he starts at Grade One, so that he
may become well-acquainted with the Filipino norms and Philippine-based academic system. His
enrollment at Davao Central High School helped Mr. Liu of becoming acquainted with the
Filipino culture and values. He also learned the Filipino concept of “bayanihian” and has deep
regard with Philippine heroes, such a Dr. Jose Rizal.

Subsequently, he took up his degree of Business Administration Major in Marketing at Holy
Cross of Davao College and committed himself to the service of the local community by
undergoing training with Davao Volunteer Fire Brigade, a non-profit organization. Ultimately,
he became a distinguished fireman and was able to help many Filipino families and communities
in his line of service. His noble deeds as a fireman was extended by helping others during the
time of calamity and other emergency cases.

In 1994, Mr. Liu married a Filipina named Belinda Y. Liu. Both Mr. Hsi Pin and Mrs. Belinda
adopted a Filipino child named Anika Margaret Liu.

At the same time of performing his community service as a volunteer fireman, Mr. Liu ventured
into business and started his trucking and hauling logistics services with the prestigious shipping
line, With due diligence and industry, Mr. Liu was able to invest in other line of businesses and
was able to own several establishments such as Fountain place Entertainment Plaza, Dream
Home Furniture Center, leased out commercial buildings to the public, Keizzenng Trucking


Corporation, a trucking company with 32 truck units, hauling shipping lines container vans
delivery to various cities. He is also engaged in the business of packaging products and thrived
at specializing disposable materials in his packaging items supplying various supermarkets,
hotels, restaurants and household clients. Mr. Liu engaged in a resort business in Samal Island,
which was named Sun Rise View Resort and was open to the public for ideal relaxation.

Furthermore, these businesses were placed under his wife's name, who was a natural-born
Filipino citizen. At present, he has under his employ a number of 130 Filipino workers, who are
provided with utmost benefits and privileges to serve as a way of giving back to the Filipino

community.

Aside from the closeness to the Filipino culture and community, back in December 03, 2012, Mr.
Liu personally went to the affected areas and victims of typhoon “Pablo” which devastated the
provinces of Agusan and Compostela Valley. He assisted in those areas and distributed relief
goods. He also initiated and sponsored a rehabilitation drive to effectively help the Filipino

communities in those places.
At present, he continues to perform his volunteer-fireman work despite his thriving businesses
in the country. He remains socially active in the community and is very dependable when it

comes to helping Filipino communities in times of great need. Thus, it is most respectfully
requested that Filipino citizenship be given to Mr. Hsi Pin Liu.

For the foregoing reasons, the immediate approval of this bill is earnestly sought.
