Talent manager at online show host Noel Ferrer pinangalanan sina Bam, Vico bilang People of the Year 2025




Hinirang ng talent manager at online show host na si Noel Ferrer sina Senador Bam Aquino at Pasig City Mayor Vico Sotto bilang Level Up People of the Year 2025 dahil sa kanilang hindi matitinag na paninindigan para sa transparency, integridad, at mabuting pamamahala.

“In a year where leadership is often defined by words, Mayor Vico Sotto and Senator Bam Aquino stand out for turning actions into tangible progress. These two leaders have shown Filipinos what it means to serve with integrity and courage, making them deserving of being the Level Up People of the Year 2025,” sabi ni Noel, host ng online show na “Level Up”.

Pinuri ni Noel si Sen. Bam, na pumangalawa sa 2025 senatorial race, sa kanyang matibay na koneksyon sa kabataan at sa kanyang pagtutok sa makabuluhang reporma sa pamamagitan ng mga batas tulad ng Blockchain the Budget Act.

“With a campaign fueled by young voters, he translated that momentum into impactful legislation. From pushing for educational reforms to championing the Blockchain Act, Bam underscored transparency in government and paved the way for innovations that benefit everyday Filipinos,” diin ni Noel.

Aniya, ang pagtutok ni Sen. Bam sa pagbibigay-kapangyarihan sa kabataan at sa mabuting pamamahala ang dahilan kung bakit siya maituturing na lider ng kanyang henerasyon.

Para kay Noel, pinatunayan ni Mayor Vico na ang pananagutan ay isang makapangyarihang kasangkapan para sa pagbabago matapos ilantad ng Mayor ang malawakang katiwalian na inuugnay sa mga kontrobersyal na contractor na sina Sarah at Curlee Discaya.

Nauwi ang hakbang na ito ni Mayor Vico sa malawakang imbestigasyon sa isa sa pinakamalalaking iskandalo ng korupsiyon sa Pilipinas.

“His (Vico's) bold move didn’t just highlight his commitment to clean governance— it showed citizens that transparency can lead to real justice. Through his actions, Vico has become a symbol of hope for those fighting against graft and corruption,” ani Noel.

Binigyang-diin ni Noel na ang mga ambag nina Mayor Vicor at Sen. Bam ay higit pa sa pulitika, dahil hinihikayat nila ang buong bansa na manindigan para sa pananagutan, yakapin ang transparency, at maniwala sa kapangyarihan ng progresibong pagbabago.

“For their relentless efforts in shaping a better Philippines, they are truly the most inspiring leaders of 2025,” pagtatapos niya.

Purple Hearts Foundation Brings Joy Through Year-End Gift-Giving Outreach for Neighboring Barangays





The Purple Hearts Foundation successfully conducted its year-end outreach program titled “Purple Hearts Foundation Gives Back” at Kryzl Farmland, where 150 households from nearby barangays were blessed with assistance, joy, and meaningful fellowship. 




Each household was represented by the entire family—parents and children—reflecting the Foundation’s belief that the true spirit of giving is best felt when families are together. The program began at around 10:00 AM and concluded at 1:00 PM, carried out in an organized and compassionate manner for all attendees.

The initiative was led by Love Kryzl and her siblings, who personally planned and actively participated in the gift-giving, games, and communal feast. As an expression of gratitude for the continuous blessings they receive through Purple Hearts Supplement Products, they chose to share their success with the community in a heartfelt and personal way.

As part of the outreach, families received grocery packages, while children were given toys. The event also featured games, raffle activities, and a shared lunch that strengthened the spirit of unity and thanksgiving among participants. 





Alongside the outreach, Love Kryzl also premiered her new music video titled “Opo, Thank You Po,” a song that emphasizes love and sincere gratitude. The message of the song deeply resonated with the attendees and added emotional depth to the occasion.

The success of the program was made possible through the collaboration of the Purple Hearts Foundation, Purple Hearts Production, and the staff of Kryzl Farmland and Kryzl Gamefarm, who worked together to ensure a smooth, safe, and joyful experience for everyone.

The program concluded with a prayer of thanksgiving, reaffirming the Purple Hearts Foundation’s commitment to remain a continuing channel of love, compassion, and service to the community.

This week, Love Kryzl’s latest single, “Opo, Thank You Po,” will be officially released along with its music video on Love Kryzl’s Facebook page and YouTube channel.  



The song is currently available for streaming on Spotify worldwide.

A Musical Homecoming: SB19 and Acer Team Up for the Heartwarming #AcerTahanan Campaign










They say home is where the heart is, but it's also your safe place you'd want to return to after being away. In this ever-changing world, where technological advancements are rapid and people are always glued to their screens, they still long for home.



This season, Acer is that tahanan, the Tagalog word for home, rooted in "tahan," meaning "be comforted" or "be at peace." Digitally, Acer Aking Tahanan is a space of warmth, creativity, and togetherness. Through technology that adapts, empowers, and feels personal, Acer helps make every moment a homecoming.



The music video shows Acer brand ambassadors SB19 in Kaohsiung, Taiwan. Each member is in a different location in Kaohsiung on their respective creative journeys, but connected through their Acer devices, their “digital tahanan.” There are special moments, like Justin revisiting a warm memory and Pablo’s brief check-in call.



Pablo sends a new song idea to Stell, Justin, Josh, and Ken, and they begin making their way toward one another. Their paths finally lead them to the Kaohsiung Music Center, where they reunite in person, underscoring that home isn’t a place but a special connection you carry with you.



For the MV, Acer Philippines worked with the Kaohsiung City Government to assist with filming at key locations, including the Kaohsiung Music Center, the Dragon and Tiger Pagoda, and Pier2 Art Center.



"The song #AcerTahanan captures how we feel about our home, or Tahanan, as we Filipinos call it. We will always return to our Tahanan because that is where we feel most comfortable. It may take years or even decades, but we will always come home. We at Acer are happy to be your digital Tahanan, where you can get the best gadgets for your needs," said Sue Ong-Lim, Acer Philippines Managing Director.



Acer consumer notebooks are designed for everyday tasks, including productivity, entertainment, and communication, offering a balance of performance, portability, and value for money. Acer and Predator gaming laptops elevate your performance with modern AI and graphics.

In Latest Collaboration with Manulife, Erwan Heussaff Puts Spotlight on Longevity

 For Manulife Philippines brand ambassador and content creator Erwan Heussaff, living better and attaining longevity boils down to one thing: intentionality. In a video he produced in partnership with Manulife Philippines, Erwan looked back at his experience speaking during “Time to Move: the Manulife Longevity Symposium” in October where he and other industry experts tackled how Filipinos are approaching health and aging in the lens of longevity.  


 
 

 

“Today's world moves so fast. And so do the choices we make about our health, our habits, and our future. Longevity isn't just about living longer. It's about living with intention,” ErwanHeussaff said in the video posted on his Instagram account.

 

The symposium served as a platform for discussions on how physical, mental, and financial health impact longevity. Heussaffshared the stage with Manulife Global Chief Sustainability Officer, Ariel Kangasniemi, in discussing living healthier and making sustainable choices, particularly in the food we eat. 

 

“When we think of food, we think of something that we eat, and something that keeps us going. I always say just do things with intent. When you do something, know why you're doing it, and that you shouldn't let guilt eat you up. So, if you want to eat fast food, I can't stop you. For the other things that you're eating, maybe just make a conscious decision of what you're eating, it really has to start with you,” Heussaff said.  



 

 


His work as a content creator traveling around different parts of the Philippines and his passion for food, he said, have made him realize more that even small steps count in taking care of our health and our communities. 

 

 

“Through what we decide to do every day, we can create change for ourselves and also for our direct community. But it really has to start with you—with the decisions that you make every day. Even the small ones, they all count and lead you to a bigger goal,” he said. 

 

“We are thrilled to continue shining a spotlight on these very important conversations with Erwan,” said Sonali Verma, Chief Marketing Officer, Manulife Philippines “Through his content and our other platforms, such as the Longevity Symposium and ManulifeMOVE, we aim to inspire and empower Filipinos with practical insights and actionable steps, helping them make intentional choices that lead to healthier, more sustainable, and ultimately better lives.” 

 

This latest collaboration between Heussaff and Manulife follows his previous features that centered around healthy eating and the impact of protecting the environment to communities such as Manulife’s partnership with Haribon Foundationwhich continues to benefit residents, farmers, and micro-entrepreneurs in Quezon Province. 

 

This initiative builds on Manulife’s commitment to longevity and is exemplified by the recently launched Manulife Longevity Institutewhich is a global platform that seeks to drive action to help people live longer, healthier, and more financially secure lives by 2030 – in Asia and around the world.
