Another history that will make us Filipino proud of. Congratulations to Western Union for successfully  achieving the world record for the Largest Coin Mosaic and acknowledge and confirmed by Guinness World Records.
In celebration of its 25th year of service in the Philippines, Western Union created the World' largest coin mosaic and the total value of the coins used in mounting the said mosaic, will be part of Western Union's Technology Aiding the Nation's Youth to Accelerate Growth Program of TANYAG. The company tapped the Knowledge Channel Foundation in providing both the hardware and content of the multimedia libraries with each of the 25 public schools receiving a multimedia package.
Confirmed by Guinness World Record judge Jack Brockbank, Wester Union's record breaking coin mosaic is indeed the world's largest ever made in terms of surface area. Wester Union's mosaic forms the image of the company's 25th anniversary logo with the image of a rising sun to represent hope and a brighter future while the abstract of a dove symbolizes the company's ambition for the young children who will benefit from this project. The logo celebrates and reaffirms the company's commitment towards bringing a better life for the Filipino through Financial Progress.
Other highlights of the 25th Anniversary celebration includes the printing of special anniversary stamps by the Philippine Postal Service (Philpost), specially designed and freshly minted commemorative medals by Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas and the Heroes for better campaign, a program launched to recognize and celebrate Filipino heroes from around the world who have dedicated their lives in serving their fellow Filipinos without anything in return.
Western Union started operations in the Philippines in 1990 and has expanded to more than 8,000 locations nationwide. Across the globe, Western Union has over 500,000 agent location in over 200 countries and territories.


It was my first time to witness from the time of attempting the world record to the final announcement that Western Union Philippines made it to Guinness World Record, it was a great feeling and thankful to Western Union that Philippines is acknowledged and brought the title that Filipinos can be proud of.
