One time game show contestant, oft-time urban roamer. I have nothing much to say, I'm the quiet one...which is probably why I take photos too much.
Merdeka 118, the world's 2nd tallest building afte Merdeka 118, the world's 2nd tallest building after Burj Khalifa, is not yet open to the public, but it is already an imposing presence in the Kuala Lumpur skyline. It is said that its design takes inspiration from the pose of Tunku Abdul Rahman when he declared the independence ("merdeka") of Malaya (before it became Malaysia) in 1957. So here's my attempt to do the same, declaring my own "merdeka" from fear, hopefully, on this special day. Thank you to all your birthday greetings! It means a lot to me! Terima kasih!
Okay, back to business...sort of. 😁 See you in Okay, back to business...sort of. 😁 See you in a while.
Never in my wildest dreams I get to do this again. Never in my wildest dreams I get to do this again. But I’m grateful that I was at the very least given the opportunity to take part in this historic milestone in Philippine television. More so, I’m grateful that I ended up becoming the “champion of champions” (and I honestly cringe being called as such). Thank you @david_celdran , Jennie, Gen, Bong, and the rest of the @bilyonaryoquizb team for bringing intellectual programming to television again and I wish the best for the program’s success. Thank you to @bilyonaryoph for supporting and promoting the program despite the slight scheduling snafu. Thank you to Orion and Oliver for their support despite being friendly competition for this game. Thank you to all who have supported and looked up to me even though I try to downplay it at times. To be honest, I’ve avoided promoting myself to be the “Millionaire” winner for so long because I’ve felt I don’t deserve too much adulation and I don’t want people to expect too much from me. But being invited to be part of this episode made me reconsider that I’ve actually inspired people to seek new knowledge and ideas. I hope in my own little way, I’ve been able to inspire more people, especially a new generation, to be passionate about learning and knowledge. Padayon at maraming salamat!
