Remarkable Growth: DigiPlus Set to Establish SG Based Global Office

Bullish is a big word but we think it's the apt one to describe the folks from DigiP|us Interactive Corporation as they are all set to establish an international hub in finance hub Singapore. They are the premiere digital entertainment corp in the Philippines and the plan is to put up DigiP|us Global Pte Ltd or DigiP|us Global which will be based in the merlion country.

It will be a center for their talent acquisitions, partnerships which is part of their overall strategy, something that they hope to do for the long  term.

Their Chairman Eusebio Tanco sees this an ideal place for their goals of hiring more professionals, and enhance their international presence especially in the ASEAN region where they are based at.

Currently DigiP|us operates various brands Bing0P|us, ArenaP|us, GameZ0ne and are based in the Philippines. DigiP|us Global will be their base for corporate functions and operations which means they will not engage in any gam|ing operations to follow SG regulations.

DenJen Movie "Everything About My Wife" Touches on 7 Year Itch, Marriage and Deceit

I've seen the Korean film which this was based from (All About My Wife, 2012), but felt even if this may have been based on that... this Filipino romcom movie carries its own weight. This adaptation Everything About My Wife by Director Real Florido takes on a whole Filipino premise, and talks about that 7 year itch that a lot of married couples go through. Dennis Trillo and Jennylyn Mercado play a couple named Dominic Brizuela and Imogen Karuhatan (Dom and Imo). Also in the film is real life cassanova Sam Milby who did absolutely amazing in this story of love, getting tired of it, relationships, and trust.

For starters, it's not a full on romcom because much of the scenes felt like a drama, something that both Dennis and Jennylyn would know like the back of their hand. It's a slow burn, but the elements are there, something that you would probably enjoy because those fun DenJen moments you see on social media will have a LOT of it in this film. It's their personal touch, which I'm sure you'll all adore when you get to see this in the silver screen. 

Also in the film are the fun characters of Carmi Martin and Ms. Nova Villa. There's small pockets of situational comedy which you'll enjoy in Everything About My Wife. You'll get most of it with Dennis Trillo's character, and you'll never see sunflowers the same because of it. Joyang is also fun to see, she's got that spunk even if she's a newbie in PH cinema.

 Much of the first half of it will involve them establishing the issues they are encountering, like being tired of the partners, and how they approached it with another problem, like seduction and connivance. It may feel slow, but bear with it. It's going to get better, funnier and more interesting in the second half. I'd give this 8.5/10 cows 🐮ྀི🐮ྀི🐮ྀི🐮ྀི🐮ྀི🐮ྀི🐮ྀི🐮ྀི

This is already showing on theaters, so if you're planning to have a fun day with your family and friends, who are fans of Dennis, Jennylyn and Sam, you should definitely watch this. This is produced by GMA Films and CreaZion Studios.

MARCO GALLO and HEAVEN PERALEJO CompleMints Each Other with Doublemint

I've seen them several times during press conferences and interviews, but now they're representing a brand that's been with Filipinos for years now. I'm talking about Marco Gallo and gorgeous Heaven Peralejo, and the ever dependable Doublemint, yes, that cool, fun and minty chewing gum.

Adored by their fans as #MarVen, they're super excited to have more fun loving folks to enjoy the iconic gum brand with them and its long lasting fresh flavor. Since it's February, those date nights would be the perfect time to not have emergencies in the most opportune times. Throw in their latest Couplemint campaign and you are bound to be secure and more confident in getting to first base with it. 

Heaven says "Doublemint is something I grew up with, something I'd note to be similar with my personality. I'm so happy to be part of the Doublemint family!'

Marco on the other hand was equally happy and says "I am so thankful for the trust, I've always been a fan of the brand, and hope to share the same youthful energy it brings to MarVen fans across the country. We complement each other, like how we are on and off screen."

They're also looking forward to more projects as a pair, and hope the CompleMints that each of them brings would translate to more movies, series and shows together. They have always shown support with each other's projects, so if you're a fan go watch their new My CompliMint series they made with Doublemint! (Go follow their social channels for it!). It's available in leading stores, supermarkets and groceries nationwide!
