Good Afternoon, Friends.

People will always say what they want to say. And especially nowadays, people ALWAYS have something to say. Everything we do is always given some shade or color. I feel we have lost the joys of being spontaneous. We have lots the right to make choices without people having opinions about them.

But this afternoon, I do not care. I do not care what people may think or what motives they think I have for this gathering. As far as I am concerned and from the bottom of my heart, I am simply welcoming home a dear friend who have missed. That is all there is to this luncheon that gathers us all together this afternoon.

We are all friends welcoming back in our arms somebody who was not with us for reasons beyond control or explanation. And we are not here to make a stand except for one important statement: Bong Revilla, you are our dear friend...and we are happy that you are back.

There is no greater treasure than appreciating the blessing of friendship that has been given to us. Have a good afternoon.
