Guam Manpower Resources

MBJ: Manpower maneuver New group steps into Guam HR field

A new company - a local partnership with international relationships - is positioning itself as a player in the labor market for the coming military buildup. Equally, partners told the Journal, the company is bringing its resources to bear in the local human resources area and arranging strategic partnerships. Guam Manpower Resources' partners are Manu P. Melwani and Paris J.M. Blas.

Melwani is president of Pacific American Title Co. and has other business holdings that include Bedrock Construction, Safety 1st and Rainbow Paint Supply; Sherwin Williams Paint and Frazee Paint & Wall Coverings, part ownership of United Pacific Collection Agency, and the Star Building. Blas, previously the office manager at Executive Typing and Employment Services, said the buildup was a factor in the partners' decision to launch the company.

They will draw on the resources of InterAsia Outsource Inc. in the Philippines and ACS Global of Perth, in Western Australia. Guam Manpower opened its doors on July 1 in the Eva Building, which Melwani owns.

The business already has clients, varying in size from Continental Micronesia to Guam Copy Center. It has about 60 registered potential employees and has placed seven individuals in employment as of July 24.

The company has discussed a placement service with a Guam organization and is preparing to sign a Memorandum of Understanding with that organization for its graduates.
