Since the year 2002, Emi has been working in close coordination with the Sinulog Foundation, upon the request of Cebu City Vice Mayor Michael Rama, to ensure that the Sinulog Parade would finish on time based on the planning process by the Sinulog organizers.  Calling her his eyes and ears as to the progress of the parade, VM Rama placed his trust and confidence in IPP Emi to manage the flow of the parade and iron out discrepancies and problems that may hinder or worse, would make the parade end earlier than what is the projected appropriate time for it to end, which could dampen the mood of the festival followers for the fireworks display that would follow.
