WOW Philippines

I was watching the news early today and I cant believe my eyes about how different Philippines now from five years ago. I've lost so many years and have been detached away from my country because of an opportunity that have been offered to me by a global company. Although I have been away I am still a proud Pinoy by heart and missed home "PI" every single day.

PI is now one of the most developing country not just in Asia but in the world. She is literally a sleeping giant waking up on the right side of the bed. By 2008 PI will be a country full of opportunities not only for the locals but to the neighboring countries and around the world. Employment is rising sky high from small and big businesses and from foreign investors.

Although I am far I know I have huge responsibilities toward my home country. I am not turning my back away from my country ever, not because She has grown beautiful and successful over the last decade but undeniably because She is. I have been to most of the corners of the world and the Philippine culture on most aspects of life is still the best there is. I am a proud Filipino (bisdak ni bai).

Calzaghe adds Kessler's WBC, WBA crowns to WBO, Ring title

Undefeated Joe Calzaghe added Mikkel Kessler's WBA and WBC super middleweight titles to his own WBO and Ring crowns early Sunday, unanimously outpointing the previously undefeated Dane.

The 35-year-old Welshman improved to 44-0, closing with three standout rounds at the Millennium Stadium to unify the three titles in front of an announced 50,150.

"To win the four major title belts, to be the unbeaten champion and 10 years a champion it's just amazing and I'm so proud," said Calzaghe, who said it could well be his final fight at 168 pounds before he finishes his career as a light-heavyweight. Full Article.
