    Atty. Irineo F. Martinez, Jr. was named the Father of Community Relations (COMREL) in 1985 by the Personnel Management Association of the Philippines, while he was employed as Personnel and Administrative Director of the Davao Union Cement Corporation in Ilang, Davao City. He presented a paper entitled The Pagtambayayongay of Davao: A COIR Model which was eventually published by the International Labor Organization (Community Organization and Industrial Relations: The DUCC’s Approach to Community Development, 1985). The paper discussed grassroots approaches in setting up COMREL programs that influenced other PMAP members nationwide to organize corporate foundations in an attempt to neutralize the socio-political environment. Atty. Martinez was inspired by the business philosophy and teachings of the late Mr. Ernesto O. Escaler, Mike Magsaysay, and Ting Paterno who were instrumental in organizing forums where the experience in DUCC and the PHINMA group of companies were shared in a storytelling mode. Rene as he is called in the communities was also a faculty of the Evelio B. Javier Foundation Inc., an NGO with a special focus on political education. Rene holds a degree in Political Science from the University of the Philippines, Diliman, 1970.
