Former Congressman Monsour Del Rosario pushes for “Healthcare Heroes Card” benefit for frontline healthcare workers

Monsour Del Rosario, a former Makati City congressman who drafted and delivered 292 bills and resolutions during his term (2016-2019), has seen how the pandemic impacted the country. In particular, how it put pressure on the Philippine government to act fast and address the immediate needs of the people in this very unfamiliar situation. 

In a meeting with a group of Rotary Clubs from Makati and Parañaque, Del Rosario expressed his intention of proposing legislation that would help improve the lives of Filipinos. The meeting, which was held virtually on November 12, aimed to educate voters with the various issues that the country faces and to call on voters to choose leaders whose hearts are in the right place to serve and prioritize the needs of the people in the coming 2022 national  elections.

Filipino hip-hop group 8 BALLIN’ tackles love in its varied forms on new single “DI NA”

8 BALLIN’ explore exciting new grounds with the release of “DI NA,” their debut single under Def Jam Philippines.

With its minimalist beats and uniformly gentle guitar licks, the Filipino rap crew’s crossover anthem allows the group to set an acoustic-tinged blueprint for local hip-hop, and infuse it with a contemporary-sounding approach to production. 

"Di Na was produced by zp3nd,” says the all-star ensemble. “What we really want at that moment was to give off an LA/West Coast sound with a mix of early 2000s feel. zp3nd did a great job mixing and mastering the track and made the most out of our unique voices.”

Lyrically, the track tackles love in its many forms and iterations, rejecting stereotypical presentation of the usual subject with something that is sincerely inclusive yet whose appeal remains universal.

REVIEW - One True Pair The Movie

Jollibee Studios has indeed made memorable short films called "Kwentong Jollibee" which also serves as another way of promoting the brand with stories that are so relatable. Many of which have moved many viewers to tears. And after years of showcasing stories set for various seasons, they now gave a new story that is bigger and brings in one of biggest loveteams in Philippine cinema.

Yes I am talking about John Lloyd Cruz and Bea Alonzo which made blockbuster films and memorable teleseryes. Now Jollibee Studios presents "One True Pair The Movie" which is the longest so far they have made. Though it's not a long as the usual films, it wants to remain with the balance close to the other Jollibee shorts yet long enough to give a meaningful story and character depth.

Directed by JP Habac, it's something new for the two yet also works as their dynamic as a loveteam is what bring people to watch them. Given the pandemic set-up, the premise is simple as well as the cast that will focus more on John Lloyd and Bea playing actors who are also a love team and goes on a conversation about life, love, and their past. Going around the city, walking, sitting, driving, and yes, going to Jollibee.
