Anticipation rises as countdown to Kapusong Pinoy Vancouver and Anaheim begins


With only a few days left before the Kapusong Pinoy fever hits Canada and the US, Philippine Comedy Queen Ai-Ai delas Alas together with Christian Bautista, Alden Richards, Jonalyn Viray and Betong Sumaya is busy preparing for GMA Pinoy TV’s Kapusong Pinoy Vancouver and Kapusong Pinoy Anaheim happening this weekend.

“Mga Kapuso sa Los Angeles at Vancouver, malapit na malapit na po tayong magsama-sama para i-celebrate ang 10th anniversary ng GMA Pinoy TV! Ngayon pa lang po ay mag-tweet na tayo at mag-post using the hashtag #Sampuso,” says Ai-Ai, who currently stars in the romantic-comedy series Let the Love Begin.

The returning Kapuso is looking forward to bringing the Kapuso experience to her kababayan abroad as they commemorate GMA Pinoy TV’s ten years of touching hearts across the globe.

“Wag kayong mawawala diyan dahil sabay-sabay nating mae-experience ang saya bilang proud Pinoy at proud Kapuso!” she adds.

Rehearsals are underway for the two shows that both promise to be as memorable as they are entertaining.

Christian Bautista, who stars in the upcoming Kapuso drama series My Mother’s Secret and regularly appears in GMA’s variety program Sunday All Stars, is also filled with excitement for the upcoming show. “After the long wait it’s finally here! We’re excited to finally go to Canada and the US for the GMA Pinoy TV shows. I’m also very excited to perform with Ms. Ai-Ai again. So get ready! It’s gonna be fun!” he exclaims.

Meanwhile, Kapuso leading man Alden Richards is equally pumped up to perform before his fellow Filipinos. “Ilang tulog na lang at makakasama na namin ang ating mga Kapuso sa Vancouver at Anaheim. We’ve been preparing for the shows and are very excited to give them a fun-filled Kapuso concert experience!” shares Alden, who recently joined the country’s longest-running noon time show Eat Bulaga as one of its hosts.

As GMA Pinoy TV pays tribute to its loyal subscribers over the past decade, audiences will be treated to a night of non-stop fun, laughter and music. There will also be games and surprises, as well as a meet and greet session, where fans can have their photos taken with the Kapuso artists, following each show.

PCG: China’s bullying in West Philippine Sea undermines international law --- Ghio Ong - The Philippine Star

MANILA, Philippines — Letting China sustain its aggression in the West Philippine Sea would make other countries doubt the strength of international law currently being asserted by the Philippines, Commodore Jay Tarriela of the Philippine Coast Guard (PCG) said. “Allowing China to blatantly disregard the established rules-based order threatens the very foundation that we all depend on,” he wrote in a post on X last Tuesday. He added, “If we permit this, countries worldwide may forget why this order was created in the first place. Nations could begin to doubt the significance of adhering to international law if powerful bullies can easily violate it.” Tarriela also said defiance of other countries to a rules-based order would result in the prevalence of cruelty. He wrote, “This could lead us back to a time when might makes right, undermining the global structures that keep human greed, savagery and barbarism in check. Such a scenario would not only invite challenges from aggressive ...

Social media seen as cause of rising intermarriages --- Helen Flores - The Philippine Star

MANILA, Philippines — The Commission on Filipinos Overseas (CFO) sees social media as the main reason for the rising number of Filipinos marrying or becoming partners of foreign nationals. In 2022, the CFO recorded 6,854 marriages or partnerships with foreign nationals, a 40.1 percent increase from the 4,891 “intermarriages” recorded in 2021. “First of all, what we see in the increase in the marriage rate of Filipinos or Filipinos with foreign partners is because of social media, (that) is number one; matchings; letters, introduction of their friends,” CFO chairperson Romulo Arugay said at the Bagong Pilipinas Ngayon public briefing yesterday. Arugay said the agency has been registering a high number of intermarriages since 2007, but the figures went down during the COVID-19 pandemic. From over 6,500 Filipinos who married foreign nationals, only 600 are men, he said. Most of them are married to Americans, Japanese, Germans, Canadians and Australians, Arugay said. Arugay warned Fi...
