Because of recent events, and since I’m being asked daily, I wish to express my thoughts on the issue surrounding the casting of my uncle in Blood vs Duty, and the current situation hounding the Senate.
Growing up, my tito Robin was kind to me and my family. I will be forever grateful for this. But as our careers flourished and took different directions, with him entering politics, our personal encounters have become scarcer. Our ideologies also differed.
I do not live close to my uncle. I haven’t seen tito Robin until we shared the same call time last Friday. Before then, I saw him 3 years ago.
My uncle being cast in the show was neither because of my influence nor my being part of the cast. I was cast in December. He is a recent addition to the show. This decision is purely the prerogative of the executive and supervising producers of the show.
My uncle’s political affiliation has nothing to do with my personal beliefs and convictions. We are related but we manage to agree to disagree. I remain grateful to his kindness, but I also maintain an independent and personal sense of being in charge of my career, choices and convictions.
The Love of Siam is always a beautiful memory from almost twenty years ago. 🙏🇹🇭

Ito ang problema ng maraming mambabatas.
Hindi nila alam ang batas. Our lawmakers are the law breakers.
Mula sa Bawal Bastos Law hanggang sa Anti-Plunder Act o Anti-Graft & Corrupt Practices Act. Kaya bastos na, ang marami - magnanakaw pa.
If the honorable congressman thinks those remarks belong in the halls of Congress, one can only imagine what passes for normal conversation in private, especially when women aren’t in the room.
What followed was even worse: intellectual dishonesty and refusal to engage with criticism. The familiar playbook of strongman politics that seems to be spreading everywhere these days.
Dear @flyPAL,
Your group check-in at @newnaiaph is taking forever. Waited in line almost 30 minutes only to find your ground staff opening another lane for group check-in. In effect, those who came later than us got ahead.
