I only knew of her passing today while I was updating my resume and thought about the RONPAKU Fellows. I did not know her much except for her occasional appearances at DOST while she was finishing her Ph. D. in economics under the JSPS-RONPAKU Program which I supervised that time. She always had that happy smile and cheerful attitude. She was the most active among the scholars while we were organizing the creation of the RONPAKU FELLOWS. She gave me a gold-colored tie that she bought from Japan so I can wear it to conferences when she learned I am leaving my post to pursue graduate studies.
