Yes, it's still happening and of course this is after the Department of Public Works and Highways, the Department of Transportation and Bases Conversion and Development Authority pushed through with the government's Build Build Build program and made it a priority. Part of these include major roads, highways, bridges that would make every community in different parts of the country accessible when projects are completed. It's one of the reasons why the demand for Bria is on the rise because pretty soon, their property values would skyrocket and it'll be a wise time to invest in the real estate market.
Right now, there are several BRIA communities in different parts of the country and as they continue to build and provide high-quality yet affordable house and lots, and restrictions are reported to ease, more people from the metropolis are flocking to properties outside so they can go to less crowded, but fresh air laden communities.
There's a BRIA Homes community in Mariveles, Bataan which you can later access via the Bataan-Cavite Interlink Bridge. This actually connects the municipality of Mariveles to Naic, Cavite which originally would take hours to travel. Aside from that, there's a BRIA Homes property in Alaminos, Laguna which you can later access via the Alaminos-San Pablo City Bypass Road which is also a lengthy travel from Quezon to Laguna. When they finish the MRT 7 project in Quezon City, it's going to be easy to get to and from BRIA San Jose del Monte, a very promising commune in the North. There will be more roads and projects in these areas soon and that's going to help boost economic growth in these provinces, which likely will happen soon.
If you want to know more about these communities and what place you can invest in, give their official site www.bria.com.ph a visit or their social media channels Bria Homes, Inc. on FB, Twitter, IG, YT, Pinterest, Spotify, Viber, Telegram, Kakao Talk, LINE or WhatsApp. You can also call them on mobila via 09398879637 so they can help you with inquiries.
Century Pacific Food Incorporated just launched unMEAT, their plant based meat alternative which is now available in Swift Meat E-Tindahan outlets and in Shopee and Lazada. If you are looking for branches, you may find them via bit.ly/unmeatshopee and bit.ly/unmeatlazmall or in Kitchen Marks bit.ly/unMEATxKMShopee and bit.ly/unMEATxKMLazada.
CPFI is a global company with a Philippine footprint. We are aware that there are players in this place, but we are offering an alternative. Price is close to actual meat, the look and taste of meat without any preservatives. At Century, they have some of the most variety of products. Unmeat is plant based, protein rich, has fiber, and has the same benefits as with other plant based burgers. Our r&d worked hard to make this the tastiest but with less than ten ingredients.
Their production has been done in Wenger Manufacturing Inc. and their goal was to find something that had texture, the feel and flavor of actual meat. Century Pacific met with them and found how good they had. In 2008, they were already attending plant based proteins and wanted to have something that has the flavor of meat, but with all plant alternatives. They use NON GMO soy products for these. Symrise Flavor decode, design and deliver flavors that would work for the consumer. It also lasts 9 months under frozen conditions. They cost it quite nicely too at Php 135 for the unMEAT Burger Patties (226g). The unMEAT Sausages (225g) cost the same while the unMEAT Nuggets (200g) is at Php 120 and the unMEAT Giniling (200g) is at Php 120 which means it's all quite affordable.
So, will you try this out and cook your usual dishes with it?
This morning was one for the books as popular online shopping app SHOPEE finally unveiled their latest Shopee ambassador. It was actually very obvious as it wouldn't really make sense if he wasn't one because his hit prime time variety show has always delivered help to the masses, who else but Willie Revillame aka KUYA WIL. Wowowin on GMA has been a platform for Filipinos to not only find entertainment, but relief from the stresses of everyday life. What's more is that Willie Revillame has been doing this for years now and it has benefited countless Filipinos of mostly poor and underprivileged parts of society, and he hasn't stopped til now. When he did stints for Shopee, the unbelievable response to the app's promos and giveaways showcased why he's been the trusted by everyone, and the live sessions are proof for it.
Shopee Philippines Director Martin Yu introduced him and says "Thank
you for your unwavering support for Shopee. Last year it was a
transformative year for eCommerce. From a commercial, we go to a more
social experience and it will have a key role in doing business. We will
keep driving growth and this 2021, payments, logistics and digitization will be part of that. Today, you can do so much more with
Shopee pay. We have growth in food, health and home sectors. More brands
are coming in, about 3x increase than usual. Businesses had to adapt so
they can grow their presence online. Shopee live made sellers able to
showcase their products wherever they are in the country. Our 3.3 and
4.4 MEGA shopping Sale of the year include cashless festival, flash
deals sale, payday sale, and mega free shipping sale. The 3.3 and 4.4
sale is also supported by our partner brands, and we will have 3.3
Shopee Milyonaryo TV Special on GMA 7 and Shopee live! But that’s not
all, today we are officially welcoming Willie Revillame!”
To get the press a little entertained during the event, he got one live audience (from us entertainment media) and one from those who are covering online. He got us to play his hit game choosing between a mystery box and a couple thousand bucks. Well, I think he and Shopee went a little generous and gave the winner a huge surprise. I wished I got picked, but it didn't happen LOL. Congratulations to the winners though!
Oh by the way, Willie is spearheading the sale that's going to happen this 3.3 and 4.4 as their Mega Shopping sale will have Shopee Pay 1 peso deals, Free Shipping and 20% cashback on several products on the app. Well in fact, they've got a whole calendar full of events so you can save from discounts that tons of stores from the app get enabled only on these dates, plus the payday sales, and the things that stores offer on the platform. So you see, there's really a lot of things you can save from the app. I actually get coins and discounts myself which I use for me next purchase on the Shopee app.
Now I don't want to tell you things you wouldn't want to know, but it was also a different experience seeing the Wowowin dancers live during the event.
Aside from that, they also got Bugoy Drilon, Michael Pangilinan, and one of my favorite performers Kris Lawrence to do some RnB numbers, man I was seeing sparkles and doves during this portion. These guys are good, it was crazy good!
To a more serious and not serious note, we sat down with Kuya Wil after the event amd got to ask him a few questions about this endorsement. He answered why he's not stopping helping people and why he's not asking for anything more. He also worries about the people who work for him during this pandemic, it was nice to see how he answered it unrehearsed, the man has a good heart.
Kuya Wil will be appearing in several print, digital and TV commercials so you're bound to see him a couple of times from February to April. He also sees this partnership last a long time, so stay tuned for more of Shopee in Wowowin too!
If you haven't yet, go download the Shopee app on Google Play and the App Store. What Kuya Wil said about trusting the app is substantial, if he trusts the people behind it, you should too. Follow their social media accounts too for some of their promos are going to be listed there.
By the way, I'm going to come out with a vlog with my experience during the press conference this morning, so please subscribe too on YouTube.com/kumagcow okay?
New year, new show, and that means there's room for some new artists on GMA. The show is called "Babawiin Ko Ang Lahat" (I will get everything back!) which is top billed by Pauline Mendoza who's done several shows like Little Nanay, That's My Amboy, Alyas Robin Hood, My Love from the Star, Kambal, Karibal, Cain at Abel, , Love You Two and One of the Baes. Needless to say, she's worked her way up and 2021 is her year, which means you're going to see her star shine even more.
The vibe I got from this blogcon was so nice, the whole cast became extremely close during the locked in taping and when they did meet again during our press conference, the jokes were thrown from all directions. The experience of shooting during the pandemic had them be together with other artists as room mates, so even after the long day, they got to eat, tell stories and talk about how their day went.
As you can see, there's no shortchanging in the looks department as artists like Therese Malvar (who plays Lala), Kristoffer Martin (who plays Joel Espejo), Manolo Pedrosa (who is Justin Roxas) and Dave Bornea (who plays Randall Madrigal) will also be in the show. They will be involved in Pauline's character Iris as what she believes was a perfect and contented life with her family, suddenly would fall into shambles as Carmina Villaroel, Tanya Garcia, John Estrada will put their past troubles on the shoulders of their daughters. Watch out for the character of Liezel Lopez named Trina Espejo because she'll be the one you'll despise in this show.
Here's our short chat with them a few days ago. You'll love "Babawiin Ko Ang Lahat!"
Show starts February 22 and will air weekdays. It can be watched on GMA Pinoy TV too if you're not in the Philippines, so please ask your cable provider.
