I’ve worked in construction, in a factory sewing clothes. I also sold flowers and doughnuts - just odd jobs to try to make 10 pesos, which is equivalent to 20 cents.

I would only spend a week or two in the Philippines, most probably the week during my birthday because I am planning to give away Christmas gifts to the poor people of General Santos just like what I did last year.

Human anger does not produce the righteousness that God desires.

Faith is my motivation to win.

If you don't have God in your life, you are nothing.

I'm doing this for my family and my country.

I grew up in the Philippines, and I don’t think there is a problem with the typhoon. It’s normal for us.
