JPE @ 99 to Korina: I Am Worried For This Country & Its New Generation

Who is the eldest prominent Filipino you know to still be alive? There is only one answer!

Who else? 99 year-old statesman Juan Ponce Enrile is all game about the dinosaur memes online about how long he has lived on earth. It means he is famous. And it’s true! 

Korina Sanchez-Roxas & Juan Ponce Enrile

You can imagine what a century old politician, lawyer and businessman has to say about every topic you throw at him: 
  • How has he lived this long and stayed as sharp as he still is? 
  • What did he tell his classmates when they called him “bastardo”? 
  • Is Philippine politics today better than before? 
  • Is this country moving forward? 
He worked as a yaya. A fisherman. A farmer. A salesman. A construction worker. Was tortured by the Japanese. Escaped. Lawyered. Worked with 6 Philippine Presidents. 

What worries him about the country and the next generation? He is worried. Did he meet Adam and Eve? The entire interview room laughed. The hour wasn’t enough —-but there’s a Part 2!

It is a term you do not want to be associated with your or to anyone in your family. They are simply a nuisance in our society, foreseen by many as wasted life and of no purpose. Pio Balbuena However, 2 years ago a hopeful young man who was born in Manila had a vision to give these so-called "low lives" a new hope and better purpose in their lives. This is because once upon a time during his dark, younger years; he used to be part of what our society refer to as "Tambay". But our hero for today's feature gives the Pinoy term "Tambay" a whole new meaning and reason why they deserve to be given a new shot in life.
