MEN WHO MATTER


Mr. Cesar Purisima
-Secretary of Finance-
"When you succeed, always share the credit with the people you work with. Remember that in the professional life, you will live and die as a team. Look for ways to make your teammates better, because that will ultimately make you look better. In many activities, even cooperatively, there will be winners and losers, and some will be better at certain things than others. It is important to learn how to manage your team’s talents so that everyone comes out better."

Mr. Carlos Celdran
-Performance Artist-
 "Best thing about living in the Philippines is our often unappreciated freedom."
Mr. Erik Cua
-Entrepreneur-
"When it comes to innovation, you do it constantly, you can never rest on innovating and thinking of newer better concepts, it's a constant work in progress."
Mr. Jing Monis
-Hair Stylist & Founder of Jing Monis Academy-
" " You have to listen to your customers, that's the most important thing. And then try to give what they want and what they have in mind, but of course according to your guidelines."

Mr. Archie Rodriguez
-President & CEO of Global  Restaurants Concepts Inc.-
" We choose restaurants based on the emotional experience they stir up. There has to be an emotional attachment. There has to be love. It's a matter of falling in love with the brand and wanting to share that experience with fellow Filipinos."
Mr. Bernie Liu
-President CEO of Golden ABC-
" We are all stewards in this life, and we are all given the opportunity to showcase our talents."
Mr. Jude Turcuato
-Head of Fox International Channels Philippines Media Guy and Sports Fan-
"There's a misconception that TV is all 'sexy.' What people see on-air is really a manifestation of a lot of different things. It's a science and an art of strategy, numbers and ratings."
Mr. Hideo Muraoka
-Model-
"When I left everything behind, I learned that life is constantly changing. Most people are afraid of change."

Mr. Anton Sandiego
-Editor in Chief of Philippine Tatler-
"What I realized with dreams is that they’re very tricky. Once you get your dream you can’t say ‘This dream is mine, and no one else’s,’ and just hold on to it. You have to let go to God or to the universe, and be a good steward of what you have received."

Mr. Richard Yap
-Actor-
"It’s all worth it when you fight for the right person, for the right love." 


Mr. Cristino L. Naguiat Jr.
-PAGCOR Chairman-
"Critics always have their agenda. If you're afraid to make mistakes, the company will not move. There will always be risks in all decisions. It's not a perfect world."


Mr. Keifer Ravena
-Athlete-
 "One of my best joys as a basketball player is being able to share my talent at a young age and seeing other youths grow up to be equally good players."
