Gary Valenciano has unveiled a brand new song “Pwede Pang Mangarap”, released under Universal Records. It’s the type of buoyant, morale-boosting track that transports listeners to a much-needed ray of hope as we dare to rise above the seemingly dream-crushing effects of the pandemic.

The pandemic may be making its way out of our lives slowly but its aftereffect is still felt by many, especially amongst those who have been striving to stay afloat in the world of the Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises. Some have had to stay closed for two years, while others have just had to shut down indefinitely. Thus, this uplifting track from Mr. Pure Energy came to life.

“Pwede Pang Mangarap” was made possible with the cooperation of The Association of the Filipino Franchisers Inc. (AFFI) and it’s the official TVC of BUYanihan, a known collective of brands, retailers, and MSMEs that aims to empower the Filipino entrepreneurs and help them highlight their world-class products. (WATCH THE OFFICIAL MUSIC VIDEO HERE)

“We’ve all heard of the light at the end of the tunnel, but I believe more in the fact that when our hope is fueled by our faith, God can become our light no matter where in the tunnel we may find ourselves in. Yes…I strongly encourage you to start dreaming once again,” says Mr. Gary V. about this powerfully crafted song.

Truly, life can’t always be easy, we all fall short but what’s important is that we don’t lose hope and become stronger versions of ourselves. Always keep your dreams alive. Stream “Pwede Pang Mangarap” on your favorite digital streaming platforms today.

After two long years of staying at home, many are raring to make the most out of this year’s summer and have the best of fun with their family and friends. Many have booked their dearly missed trips to the beach to have some outdoor fun under the sun, troop to the mountains to get some fresh air and awesome natural views, or enjoy a relaxing staycation to chill and catch up on the latest chika.

No matter how you plan to spend your summer, make it more fun with your favorites from Mang Inasal.

“We know how much our customers missed their ‘Summer Sarap at Mang Inasal’ food trips and we are all excited to safely welcome them back to our stores with all their Ihaw-Sarap favorites plus our best-selling Extra Creamy Halo-Halo,” said Mang Inasal business unit head Jojo P. Subido.

“With enhanced safety protocols, we want all families and friends to enjoy their best summer ever by indulging in everything that makes them happy wherever and however they like it – whether in-store, takeout, or via delivery. Mang Inasal will always be there for our customers,” Subido added.

To level up the fun, Mang Inasal treats its customers with a summer ‘phygital experience’ wherein they can enjoy not only physically while eating in-store but also online where they can enjoy exclusive promos and share their family and squad moments with fellow Mang Inasal fans on digital.

#SummerSarapAtMangInasal Groufie Challenge is now open for photo entries from April 1 to May 31. Just dine-in, take a groufie with your family and friends, and share it in the official promo post on Mang Inasal’s Facebook page for a chance to win Mang Inasal gift certificates.

Summer is arguably the favorite season for many. It’s the time of the year when Filipinos enjoy trips to the beach, long vacations with friends and family, or simply more time relaxing at home. All of these could only mean one thing—summer is the season for eating. Yum!

What’s a summer outing without equally exciting food? After all, a huge part of bonding during summer activities is the salu-salo. While grilled fish and hotdogs are staple favorites during summer outings, Ajinomoto Philippines Corporation has curated recipes that you can try on your next trip to make your salu-salo experience more fun and memorable.

These four recipes are not only delicious and easy to prepare, they are less in sodium too, so it’s good for you and the family.

● Simple Lemon Herb Chicken

Rich in protein and great for quick cooking, this recipe is perfect especially when you’ve got kids (you can’t go wrong with chicken when youngsters are around). Quick and easy, you’ll be done in less than 30 minutes with a savory dish made yummy with AJI-NO-MOTO® Umami Seasoning. Check out the full recipe here : Simple Lemon Herb Chicken Recipe

● Thai Pork Barbecue

A must-try recipe to level up your barbecue experience. Not only is it easy to prepare, BBQs are ideal for outdoor cooking and get-togethers because they aren’t messy to eat and people can just grab a stick or two before diving back into the water again. Full recipe here: Thai Pork Barbecue Recipe

● Kalabasang Okoy na may Hipon

If you’re into seafood, here’s a recipe that should excite you. The regular okoy already tastes great, but adding this twist should bring the dish to another level. With the kalabasa providing a layer of crunchiness and sweetness, this simple dish should be a nice addition to your summer-ific menu. Kalabasa which contains Vitamin A and beta-carotene not only helps maintain healthy eyesight but also helps strengthen immunity. All you need to do is mix AJI-NO-MOTO® Umami Seasoning to the batter, stir in beaten eggs, kalabasa, bean sprouts and shrimps. Mix well, and fry. Voila! You’re done. Learn the full recipe: Kalabasang Okoy na may Hipon Recipe

● Lumpiang Baboy at Carrots

Amongst all Lumpia variants, Lumpiang Baboy at Carrots, or what we commonly known as Lumpiang Shanghai, will always be a crowd favorite. In fact, this dish is almost always present during birthdays, fiestas, or even during summer outings. They’re easy to make, carry around, and don’t spoil easily. You can pre-make the lumpia at home (or even cook it there). Try this less sodium version with AJI-NO-MOTO® Umami Seasoning, which helps turn this rather ordinary food item into a bestseller on your summer outings. Click here for the full recipe: Lumpiang Baboy at Carrots Recipe

In its pursuit of helping Filipinos achieve a healthier lifestyle without sacrificing their hearty diet, Ajinomoto Philippines Corporation (APC) Group recently launched its BawAsin® or Bawasan ang Asin campaign, an effort that encourages consumers to reduce their sodium intake without sacrificing the deliciousness of their meals. Ajinomoto has created a BawAsin® section in its official website. It provides information that reducing sodium in a diet is not difficult or will result in bland food. The site features 100 less sodium creative recipes that help individuals enjoy meals that contain less sodium yet enjoy the same deliciousness. According to the World Health Organization, a “reduced salt intake can blunt the rise in blood pressure that occurs with age and reduce the risk of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease events and congestive heart failure.”

The BawAsin® or Bawasan ang Asin campaign is a reflection of the brand’s “Eat Well, Live Well” promise, which aims to help families improve their health by providing ways on how to prepare healthy and delicious meals.

Shanti Dope has dropped an astounding new single titled “Maya”, a song written with the goal of becoming a strong anthem for the new generation in mind.

Clocking in just a little over three minutes, “Maya”, is an exuberating rap track with a hypnotizing hook that only the young Rap Phenom along with producer Lester Paul “Klumcee” Vaño can deliver.

It is in fact Shanti Dope’s tribute to his generation: a new class of Filipinos breaking barriers, conventions, and what it takes to be who they want to be. It is an anthem of defiance, where each “Ey, kamusta?” is met with the assurance that Shanti — and all who share his relentless spirit — can only go bigger, higher, and stronger.

The bravely-executed hip-hop masterpiece song was inspired by today’s youth, who’s never shy to hustle and to be much more progressive and liberal in their own little ways. Just like the bird “Maya” which is of course ubiquitous here in the Philippines, the song firmly believes that the youth of today have unrelenting determination to soar higher and value their freedom.

The infectious song details how Millennials and Generation Z alike can stand out and prosper in life since they prove to be the more enlightened and free-thinking generations compared to the older ones. Its lyrics are direct to the point and technically brilliant, reminding listeners that we should not doubt the capabilities of the young ones. We should feel hopeful and root for them instead because they have lots of things to prove, especially in the face of adversity.

Shanti Dope and the rest of his crew knew that they wanted the music video to be a no-brainer interpretation of the whole idea of the song. Better watch out for it soon.

It doesn’t hurt that its triumphant horns, memorable hook, and Shanti’s signature flow make “Maya” a banger of a song that can rock a sold-out stadium or the next big revolution happening in the streets.

You can now stream “Maya” on your favorite digital streaming platforms right now!

Receiving a handful of coins and bills as change can be pretty inconvenient, especially if you need to carry them around as you go about your day. Sure, you can stuff them neatly in your wallet or coin purse, but as they pile up, there should be another solution to hold your endless barya.

And who hasn't encountered the perennial "meron po ba kayong exact amount" question when paying at the cashier?

The good news now is there is e-sukli! Digital financial services leader PayMaya and the Philippines' largest department store, The SM Store, launched this innovative solution to make receiving change more convenient for shoppers. e-sukli allows customers to receive a change of up to P50 directly to their PayMaya accounts instead of taking bulky coins and bills from the cashier.

Now available in over 60 The SM Store branches nationwide, E-sukli makes receiving change much easier and eliminates the need to find a smaller bill for your purchases. It is also a great way to accumulate funds in your PayMaya account so you can use it when paying cashless the next time you go shopping, dine at your favorite restaurant, or pay bills.

Not only is using e-sukli easy and convenient, but just like any PayMaya experience, it can also be rewarding. From April 1 to 30, 2022, those who use e-sukli in any of The SM Store branches will get an additional bonus of P5, P10, or P25 on top of their actual change. Be sure to avail yourself of this unique promo by SM and PayMaya for a hassle-free shopping experience that can help you earn a little extra for yourself!

E-sukli can be used at the checkout counter in The SM Store by simply asking the cashier to send your change via PayMaya. On your PayMaya app, tap the icon in the upper-left corner and tap the QR code beside your name. The cashier will then scan your PayMaya account QR code and transfer your change.

The e-sukli initiative with The SM Store is just among the many programs and innovations that PayMaya is rolling out to its enterprise partners to encourage more Filipinos to adopt digital payments for their everyday transactions.

Hybrid office work is here and it’s a great way to gradually transition into a more dynamic, post-pandemic situation. While allowing office workers the opportunity to pursue work-life balance, the hybrid lifestyle does have its own unique set of challenges. As with managing any changes, however, the key to thriving in the hybrid era is adaptability. For achievement-oriented office workers, this means ensuring they are “fully-equipped” to deliver an excellent job regardless of whether they work from home, or the head office.

For hybrid workers, a major handicap when working from home is the lack of access to a high-quality printer – especially one that can do volume printing. It’s one of those things you are not expected to have at home. But seriously, these days you often consider getting an office-grade printer for the household. Afterall, having to use the printer should not be reason enough to drive all the way to the office when you have one at home! Why, even your homeschooling high school and college kids will appreciate having such a workhorse inside the house. Now, if only there’s such a trusty printer affordable enough for household use.

A quick scan at available market options show the HP Smart Tank 750 wireless all-in-one printer could just be what your home needs to boost your family’s hybrid lifestyle. Considering what it can do and the convenience it can bring for you and the kids – not to mention the amount you save on time and gasoline on the drive to the office and back – you could actually consider it a bargain.

First off, it’s an “all-in-one”, which means it gets you covered as far as printing, scanning, and copying jobs are concerned, which in itself is already good value for money. Now, when it comes to doing professional-looking, volume printing jobs, you’d probably never want to work anywhere else, except for a change in scenery.

Designed not just for family use but for small businesses, it can do professional-grade printing at large quantities and at low cost – up to 12,000 pages in black or up to 8,000 pages in color using the original HP ink included upon purchase (which can go for 3 years without refill for non-heavy users).

While a true workhorse, this printer was designed for easy use thanks to its simple mobile setup, 35-page auto-feeder, automatic two-sided printing, backlit smart-guided buttons, and low ink and paper sensors. It also boasts of the HP Smart app that makes it easy to print from anywhere.

One feature that home-based hybrid workers who do a lot of printing will surely enjoy with the HP Smart app is that you can use it to eliminate steps in repetitive tasks using customizable shortcuts.

The HP Smart Tank 750 also boasts of having faster, more reliable connections using dual band Wi-Fi® which has self-healing capabilities – meaning it can automatically detect, stop, and recover from any malicious BIOS attack or corruption. To top it off, it also has HP Wolf Essential security embedded in its system, safeguarding your documents and memories with critical protection against cyber-threats, thus making IT security concerns one thing you don’t need to worry about.

For those on a tighter budget but still want a seamless and versatile printing experience without compromising quality, there’s HP Smart Tank 720 and HP Smart Tank 670 to choose from. They exhibit most of the same features and functionality with minor variations.

In terms of sustainability, HP’s entire Smart Tank 700 Series is made from over 25% recycled plastic. Its ink bottles are also recyclable through HP Planet Partners, consistent with the company’s vision to reduce the amount of virgin plastic used.

To know more on how to upgrade your family’s hybrid lifestyle with the HP Smart Tank 750 wireless all-in-one printer, visit your nearest Authorized HP Reseller store or check the HP Official Stores in Lazada at https://bit.ly/HPLazadaFlagshipStore and in Shopee at https://bit.ly/HPShopeeOfficialStore.

When was the last time you were asked for your details and documents? I'm sure most of us took about two years, and that's because of the pandemic.

As for me, a mom of two kids will probably be asked about my documents because of my children. But, the recent fortunate thing that happened in our lives will be a different story for me. Yes, it's because of my husband we will be getting all of our documents like the birth certificates and marriage certificates from the Philippine Statistics Authority or PSA. I think our last documents taken from their office were when they are still called the National Statistics Office or NSO. That really took us a long time to get our personal documents.

Anyway, we're going to get our birth certificates and marriage certificate because my husband is now working again and we all know that when entering a company you'll be required for different documents proving your background and your work experiences.

The problem or the hassle of getting your documents from PSA at this time of pandemic is that you'll need to file your appointment online, go to their office on the scheduled date, and leave from work or give time for the whole process, which is really hard and time-consuming.

The good thing with today's technology is that we have the internet and the process. There are companies, like the PSAHelpline (http://www.PSAHelpline.ph), that provide the services, which we all need in this time of pandemic or even when it is not. We don't have to go through all the hassle, all it takes is your computer or mobile phone, your connection to the internet, and details about the documents you are going to request. 

What's great about us, Filipinos is that we find a solution to every problem and situation. Thankfully there's http://www.PSAHelpline.ph that will help you in getting your personal documents.

So, I'll be sharing my step-by-step process on how I was able to use the services of PSAHelpline. From filing it online until you receive it.

• Decide first on the document you'll be requesting and for what purpose, whether it is a birth certificate or marriage certificate, but if I were you get them both because you'll never know when it is needed. It is best to keep one. 

• Once you have decided, visit the website www.PSAHelpline.ph. You'll land on their front page where you'll see different "order now" buttons. Of course, before doing anything else always read the details and other things that you think are important to know. By the way, whatever button you click, you'll end up on the "order now" page.

• On the order page, you'll have four (4) options - BIRTH, MARRIAGE, CENOMAR, and DEATH. Since the platform only allows one transaction at a time, pick what you need most. Don't forget to tick the "I accept the Terms and Conditions and Privacy Policy," then click "Continue".

• You'll be asked if you're requesting your own Certificate or Someone Else's. Then, click again the "continue" button.

• Since you're requesting for own certificate you'll be requested to prepare the following information below for easy reference. It is better that you have them with you when filling up the information. 

 

1. Your name, sex, birthday, and a valid government-issued ID.
2. your name as it appears on your birth certificate
3. Your father's name
4. Your mother's name
5. Your birthplace
6. Late registration (if applicable)
7. The purpose of your request
8. Legal proceedings (if applicable)
9. Your delivery address and contact information

• After preparation, you're all set to fill up the information needed. Make sure that all the information you provide is correct, especially the government-issued ID because they'll be asking for that ID when you receive it from the courier.

• Once completed, you'll be asked to check if all are correct. Then, you will select the number of copies that you want to have and its price is Php365.00 per copy. Confirm and continue.

• A list of payment options will be presented. You'll have the option to pay the requested document to the following:

• Credit Card
• GCash
• PayMaya
• 7-Eleven
• Bayad Center
• Palawan pawnshop
• Bancnet

• After paying the amount required for the requested document, a receipt with the details of PSAHelpline being the agent for the said transaction will be provided.

• Wait for the delivery. Sometimes it may take time but the good news is that you don't have to go through the hassle of getting your copy. In just 2-3 days you'll have your document delivered to you.

That's how simple it is on getting your documents.

C-Lium Fibre, the leading Psyllium fiber supplement ¹ underscores   the benefits of Psyllium fiber in its 2022 campaign, that tackles the importance of gut health in achieving overall wellness.   

DUAL CLEANSING ACTION 

Sourced from the Plantago ovata’s seeds, Psyllium fiber has two kinds of fiber: soluble and insoluble.2 Soluble Fiber helps remove excess fat, sugar, and bad cholesterol, while insoluble fiber gently sweeps them out of the digestive system.3   

GUT HEALTH IMPACTS OVERALL HEALTH 

With these actions, Psyllium fiber helps cleanse the body of wastes and toxins and   relieves constipation.  It also aids.in lowering blood sugar and cholesterol levels, and assists in weight management 4 along with proper diet and exercise.   

Psyllium Fiber also feeds the gut's good bacteria (also known as probiotics), ⁵ which support the immune system.6 Given all these benefits especially to the gut which helps prevent certain chronic diseases, Psyllium fiber plays a key role in achieving overall health and wellness.7   

NATURAL SOURCES 

Although fiber can be found in natural food sources, it is usually a challenge to get the required 25 grams8 we need daily.  To supplement your daily fiber requirement, there‘s   C-Lium Fibre in regular husk and capsule formats. It is made from 100% natural psyllium with no preservatives and no artificial colors.   

START EVERY DAY RIGHT  

Psyllium fiber is best taken at the start of the day9 thus the brand’s message of “starting every day right”.  C-Lium Fibre can be taken before or during breakfast.   

SOLENN HEUSAFF AND HER HEALTHY LIFESTYLE

Fitness enthusiast, artist, and mother of one Solenn Heussaff, who has been taking C-Lium Fibre long before she became an endorser, could not agree more on the benefits of fiber supplementation and   on taking it at the onset of each day.   

The multi-faceted fitness enthusiast says: “Because I am always doing so many different things, I do my best to be healthy." Heusaff adds: “Adding psyllium fiber to my daily diet promotes gut care, which is essential to my overall health." That’s why I take C-Lium Fibre every day”.   

C-Lium Fibre is available in all major drugstores nationwide and at PascualLab’s flagship Shopee and Lazada stores. It comes in capsule and husk formats as well as in flavored variants (Mango, Dalandan, and Pineapple). Join our FB community @C-LiumFibre to get updates on the latest in health and for promos.

Staying true to its commitment to bring innovative and high-performing smartphones to emerging markets, and providing support to Filipinos, one community at a time, premium smartphone and AIoT brand, TECNO Mobile, recently concluded its first couple of CSR activities in the Philippines for 2022. These events are part of TECNO’s ongoing CSR program, which kicked off in 2021 with the City of Manila, the Ina ng Lupang Pangako Parish in Payatas, and the scholars of Project Malasakit as its beneficiaries.

The project is in line with the launch campaign of POVA Neo, TECNO Mobile’s latest smartphone offering, which celebrates everyday heroes who power on with their day-to-day tasks in order to serve the community. For this year’s CSR activities, TECNO Mobile partnered with Grab PH, plus a few of the country’s up and coming content creators, to reach out to local communities once again, and inspire people and make a difference. Through this initiative the brand also hoped to motivate more people to participate in community outreach programs, and make them see that it isn’t about the size of the donation, but the sincerity to help others.

TECNO Mobile Gives Back to Grab PH Riders and Drivers

Grab PH riders and drivers have been lauded as true heroes of the pandemic over the last two years, helping make day-to-day life easier for thousands of Filipinos by making things accessible, even from home. These drivers face various challenges each day they spend on the road, but they never stop moving, and continue to provide their much-needed services to the community.

Recognizing their efforts, TECNO Mobile celebrates the everyday contributions of Grab PH by giving back to the company’s hardworking drivers and delivery riders. The meaningful collaboration between TECNO Mobile and Grab PH is reflective of the positive message that the POVA Neo campaign aims to impart.

Grab PH’s Papugay Awardees received a brand new TECNO Pova Neo smartphone that will help them navigate the busy streets of Metro Manila and power them all day long.
