Teen queen Nadine Bornilla admires Mayor Abby Binay

-


Miss Philippine Youth 2018 Nadine Bornilla is one of those young people who has nothing but admiration for Makati City Mayor Abigail "Abby" Binay.

During her courtesy call to the mayor's office last Feb. 5, Bornilla thanked Binay for supporting the youth of Makati City.

Bornilla, 15, presented a plaque of appreciation to Mayor Binay. She also met Makati City Vice Mayor Monique Lagdameo.


"Thank you so much for everything that you have done for the youth of Makati," Bornilla said. She was accompanied by her father Dr. Jumel V. Bornilla, Manix Genabe and other friends from the media.

Mayor Binay smiled and replied: "Kulang pa."

Sought to give message to Bornilla, Binay said: "I would like to congratulate her for representing the city for this event. Hopefully you will use this opportunity to help other people."


"I feel excited meeting her for the first time. I've been a citizen of Makati ever since I was five years old. My parents enrolled me in schools here with teachers who are very, very good," she said. "When I came here I speak Bicol pa. I didn't understand Tagalog pa or English."

Bornilla also asked the people to help the victims of the explosion of Mayon Volcano in Albay in Bicol.


"We are all in this together. We are actually planning to have a medical mission there to help the people who were affected by the explosion of Mayor Volcano. I think there are sicknesses there right now due to the explosion of the volcano," she said.

Bornilla has just arrived from Japan where she and other students of Colegio San Agustin in Makati City won bronze in the choir competition in Kobe.

Now in Grade 9, Bornilla said that she wants to take up pre-med in Australia soon. Later, she will pursue medicine in London. "I am ready to be independent." - ROBERT REQUINTINA

Kapamilya star Diego Loyzaga has admitted that he is reaching out to his father chief operating officer of Tourism Promotions Board Cesar Montano but he doesn't know if his dad knew that he was making the move. "Oo I am. Pero I don't even know kung alam n'ya. During the Christmas party of ABS CBN last year, I was with Tito Bayani (Agbayani). E magkapitbahay silang dalawa. And even Tito Bayani was telling me hindi na n'ya nakikita si Erpat. Lagi s'yang busy. Sinabi ni Tito Bayani, 'why don't you just text him?' "said Diego, when asked if he's reaching out to his father, during an interview on "Tonight With Boy Abunda" on ABS CBN. "Sabi ko, 'why not?' Nanghihinayang ako eh. Kung kelan ako sobrang seryoso na sa ginagawa ko sa showbiz na 'to, I wanna learn so much. I'm taking workshops with Tito Pen Medina at kung sinu-sino pa. Why not my dad? Why not my father?; "Nanghihinayang lang ako. Sa kont

"Construction in my upstairs neighbor’s condo is driving us nuts! It’s been about a year na," said Cuneta on Facebook. Her complete post: "We are sleep-deprived & the noise is stressful for me, my husband and and my children when we are home, that living in a beautiful building that has its own hotel and restaurants (and that cost more than what I sold our Wack-Wack house for!?!) still makes us all want to move out and check into a nearby hotel or transfer to a house or another condo!; "I understand how uncomfortable it is for a homeowner to have to do some construction in his own property and know he’s inconveniencing and bothering neighbors; "I am usually very understanding.
