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!

Moira Dela Torre for Maria Clara Sagria Virgin

T he media launch today we attended is extra special for me. It's quite special in a sense it brings back childhood memories of a favourite drink in my family,  Maria Clara Sangria.  Growing up, I was not allowed to try and drink it because of the alcohol content of the drink. But that's all in the past now. Today, we witnessed that   Distileria Limtuaco and Co. Inc. launches a non-alcoholic drink called, "Maria Clara Sangria Virgin". Moira dela Torre for Maria Clara Sangria Virgin It is the non-alcoholic version of the classic  Maria Clara Sangria we all know. Aside from containing zero percent alcohol, the newest sangria is fruity and flavourful we will surely fall in love with.  "Maria Clara Sangria Virgin" can be enjoyed chilled or served with ice. What is also beautiful with the latest variant of Maria Clara Virgin is that it has very minimal sugar content - for those watching their sugar intake.  Moira dela Torre for Maria Clara Sangria Virgin The la...
