He has been published / anthologized in several countries and some of his poems have been translated into several languages, including Spanish, Italian, Arabic, and Hindi. His unpublished book of poems Murtami was translated into Hindi entitled Premanjali and released in the New Delhi World Book Fair in 2013. He is a board member of the Philippine PEN and currently a commissioner for the Pangasinan Historical and Cultural Commission.
