Lifebuoy and Philippine Red Cross Push for 4 Point Hygiene Agenda

Sunday, November 14, 2021


Even before this arrived in the mail, I must say, I've grown an affinity to the soap brand trusted by families around the world, that's Lifebuoy. As various businesses are going back to normal, I'm sure people are raring to go outside but of course, we shouldn't forget how to protect ourselves from an unseen enemy. The government offices and doctors recommend hand washing, cleaning and disinfecting, which the good folks at Lifebuoy have done quite well doing during these very difficult years.


Honestly, I know there are tons of soaps out there that actually have the same features, but the way they make Lifebuoy these days, just smells amazingly good. Last year, they campaigned for proper handwashing.. that really helped a lot of individuals who struggle and ask themselves if its enough. Filipinos want something easy, something that really works. Lifebuoy has Aciv Silver+ technology that helps fight 99.0% of germs.

They want to help even more this year so together with the Philippine Red Cross, they're pushing for a 4 point hygiene plan so you could be empowered especially the youth. They call it #4TheFuture, and it's easy to follow!

1. Wear that mask. It has proven to lessen the spread of the virus, and even if government restrictions has eased, please be kind, protect yourselves, your loved ones, and other people.

2. Practice social distancing. You may be innocently just buying grocery, lining up in a government agency, or riding public transportation. No matter where it ease, the distance makes it hard to spread the virus so again, be kind.

3. Get that jab. It has been proven that vaccines work. It also has lessen deadly effects of the virus so be a responsible citizen and get that vaccine.

4. Wash your hands and do it regularly. The easiest way to get rid of the virus is quite simple, and we have to do it regularly. There are a lot of things we can get in surfaces and if you're prone to touching your face often, that's not going to be safe. Make sure you do!

Filipino Actor LEO CONSUL Takes Indonesia by Storm and Releases Single NO PUEDO

Saturday, November 13, 2021


Leo Consul is making waves again in Indonesia. The man who hosted in Eat Bulaga's Indonesian franchise is now doing acting roles. He is part of Terpaksa Menikahi (Forced Marriage) and Love Story. He's also gone doing movies in our ASEAN neighbor. Aside from that, he just released a song this year entitled "NO PUEDO". 

Leo Consul is a native of Bolinao Pangasinan and he pursued a career as an English teacher in an international school in Indonesia. His passion being in the entertainment industry was really a calling, he started doing auditions and made the cut.

He says "It took me a couple of years to learn Bahasa. I had to learn it fast because of Eat Bulaga Indonesia. English wasn't widely use, it takes a while but I understand everything now. Before I did the series, I just had a few sessions. I learned theatre from school. I also watched Korean dramas, which it was patterned from. I did shows, which I also hosted. I have also been given shows wherein I didn't have to auditioned anymore because they trusted me with what I do. I tried to join around 2007, I used to host a travelling show in a regional ABSCBN show. I also auditioned for Starstruck, Pinoy Dream Academy. Honestly speaking, when I came to Indonesia, I was really appreciated, but it worked out in the end... because I was probably meant to be here at first. If I didn't get opportunities in the Philippines, I was lucky to be in in Indonesia. I do get compared with Piolo and Inigo Pascual, and I am honored when people tell me that."



 

Ladies, he's single... and says "Yes we just broke up, we couldn't cope with the distance. What helped me a lot was doing the series, I just focused on it and everything was good. I hope the next one is the serious one, I'm not getting any younger anymore and I hope we have the same goals, and not that complicated anymore."

If you want to see his work, go stream his single NO PUEDO in streaming sites worldwide. You can also see his music video on YouTube today. He's raring to have his own Filipino career and with Cornerstone by his side, it'll be possible.

It was a celebrative mood over at Huawei Philippines as they launch TECH DAY 2021 last November 11th. It was a time to see how companies are spearheading ICT innovations as they continue to build more digital infrastructures in the Philippines.

The digitalization was forced because of the pandemic, but it has done that 10 years ahead in the Asia Pacific according to management firm McKinsey. They attribute survival to resilience and having more of it especially in complex businesses in the country. Huawei's Director of Enterprise Business Department Todd Liu says "Digital trasnformation is vital in office work, next is production and third is its effects in enterprise. This is also the same goals that DICT holds and Huawei wants this to be the same ideals that we want our partners and loyal customers to have as we cooperate and build digital structures that power a more digital Philippines."

We recently published an article showing the Intelligent World 2030 report a few months back. It contains that we'll have 200 Billion connections by that year. Huawei will continue to innovate as long as there is something to be sensed, connected and have something to do with AI. Union Bank's CIO Dennis Omila who also spoke at the event says that this is one of the reasons why they chose to partner with Huawei with their UnionBank Innovation Campus. More companies will partner with Huawei together with other industries in the Philippines.

MIKOY MORALES Renews Ties with GMA, Gets Milestones in Career and Lovelife

Looks like good man Mikoy Morales is getting a lot of good things in his life as her renews ties with GMA Artist Center just this week. For starters, he's got several shows which he appears in regularly and during the presscon, he divulged that he's in a relationship with a non showbiz person. He's also got several things in the pipeline which has something to do with music, I've been watching him stream quite often and I'm equally excited for him.


He was asked what else would he want to do now that he's stayed with the Kapuso network and says
"I wanna do a historical film, someone interesting. That's on top of mind. I am happily in a relationship now. I was clearing up a lot of deadlines and other work, going home and resting. Sometimes I am amazed at how GMA actually likes me, I'm not a conventional artist and I used to only just get an email when I renew but now have to do these interviews, so I'm really happy. Being in Bubble Gang is really a great experience, I'm kinda an insecure guy, but I feel I could power through things because of humor. At this point I don't know if my fans don't know me anymore, because I've been pretty open and also I want to do a lot of things that are outside of my comfort zone. Right now, I want to work with my personal friends Juancho, Mikee, and those that I've been able to have workshops with. Also Rocco, Mike Tan, I wish to do things because we have different projects and I hope we get to see each other on set. It's really a different kind of fun when we're together. Not just classmates, but really serious actors that I adore."

You can continue to see him in Pepito Manaloto, Bubble Gang, Lolong and other productions. He will also make music, mostly for films that will be using it for their soundtrack. That's just the tip of the iceberg, and we can't wait for more things to happy to one of our favorite boys in showbiz!
