DITO Telecommunity Joins Forces with Team Liquid to Power Filipino Esports on the Global Stage

What happens when world-class esports meets homegrown Filipino heart? You get a powerhouse partnership that’s all about talent, passion, and pushing boundaries. DITO Telecommunity, the country’s fastest growing telco player, proudly announces its partnership with Team Liquid Philippines, in a move that places Filipino gaming talent front and center on the global esports map.This is more than just a team-up. It’s a shared mission: to empower the next generation of Filipino gamers, dreamers, and digital champions.

As part of its GALING DITO movement, a platform dedicated to uplifting Filipino creativity, grit, and excellence, DITO is backing one of the world’s most respected esports organizations to showcase what true Filipino galing can achieve.

A New Era for Filipino Esports

On June 1, Team Liquid PH made headlines after an unforgettable 7-game showdown against defending world champs Onic Philippines to clinch the MPL Season 15 crown. Now, they’re setting their sights on the Esports World Cup in Riyadh this July–August, carrying the Philippine flag with them.

And they’re not jumping into the fight alone. They will have a solid and reliable wingman, the #1 Rated Mobile Network in the country, as awarded by Ookla.

With DITO Telecommunity fervently behind Team Liquid, this winning partnership aims to amplify not just the wins for their motherland, but their stories—the long hours, the dedication, and the Filipino “galing” that makes them more than just players, but heroes of the nation.

“This partnership with Team Liquid is a powerful statement of belief in Filipino excellence. As heralded by our GALING DITO platform, we’re investing in the dreams and talents of Filipino gamers who are ready to take on the global stage. Through this collaboration, we aim to showcase our homegrown talents and to truly show the world what “GALING DITO” truly means,” said Jasper Evangelista, Brand Management Director of DITO Telecommunity.

With the support of DITO’s cutting-edge 5G network, the team will have access to blistering high-speed, low-latency performance most especially when they are competing globally or grinding ranked games at home. This partnership isn’t just symbolic; it’s powered by technology designed to perform at the highest level.

Galing from here. Greatness for the world.

Behind the jerseys are familiar names: KarlTzy, Sanford, Sanji, Oheb, and Jaypee—players who’ve become legends in the MLBB scene, and inspirations to millions of young fans. But Team Liquid isn’t stopping there. Their Women’s Team, fresh off a strong finish in the Athena League, and their MDL (development league) squad are also ready to make waves globally.

This collaboration with Team Liquid perfectly mirrors the spirit of GALING DITO: a movement fueled by Filipino pride, local excellence, and global ambition.

Shared Vision, Shared Values

At its core, “GALING DITO” symbolizes Philippine pride and excellence in its two inherent meanings: “TALENT HERE” and “FROM HERE.” It’s a celebration of Filipino creativity, whether you’re on stage, on screen, or in the heat of an esports battle.

And Team Liquid? Their global vision of inclusivity, passion, and individuality perfectly mirrors that. They believe that “cool comes from creativity,” and that in their world, “being a little weird and different is a strength.”

That kind of energy? It’s exactly what GALING DITO was built for.

Fueled by DITO 5G

DITO’s robust 5G Standalone (SA) network provides the ideal platform for modern gaming, enabling ultra-fast speeds, ultra-low latency, and seamless online play. For Filipino gamers, streamers, and esports athletes, this technology turns aspirations into action. This allows for competitive play from living rooms to global arenas.

This is Just the Beginning

With GALING DITO and Team Liquid joining forces, Filipino gaming talent is poised for its biggest year yet. Because when Filipino talent shines, the world watches.

SM Book Nook Launches Nationwide Book Donation Drive

In celebration of its 40th anniversary, SM Supermalls, through its flagship literacy program SM Book Nook, is calling on communities nationwide to help spark the joy of reading by donating pre-loved books as part of the SM Book Nook Book Donation Drive, starting July 7, 2025 in all SM malls across the country.

SM Book Nook and the National Library of the Philippines formalize partnership for Book Donation Drive, joining forces to expand access to books and promote a culture of reading nationwide.

With a big smile and a stack of stories, a young story seeker drops off her pre-loved books at the SM Book Nook—spreading the magic of reading one tale at a time.

Anchored on the theme “Under the Same Sky: Share the Magic of Stories,” this initiative encourages mallgoers, tenants, partners, and communities to donate quality books that will benefit children, families, and readers from all walks of life.

A portion of the books will be turned over to the National Library of the Philippines and its affiliate libraries, while others will support the expansion of SM Book Nook reading hubs to more SM malls and partner institutions nationwide.

“SM Book Nook was created to be more than a space—it’s a movement. With every book donated, we create ripples of knowledge, imagination, and inclusion. We believe that stories can bridge generations and uplift communities,” said Ms. Shereen T. Sy, pioneer of the SM Book Nook program under SM Cares.

A group of friends dives into their favorite reads at the SM Book Nook—where every page turns into a shared adventure.

Two young bookworms exchange smiles and stories at the SM Book Nook—proving that every book gets better when shared.

The campaign aims to collect 40,000 books in line with SM’s 40th anniversary milestone. Each SM mall will serve as an official drop-off point, where specially designed donation boxes will be placed in strategic in-mall locations. Starting July 7, 2025, mall communities are invited to drop off pre-loved books in good condition—complete, clean, dry, and free from major damage.

Empower Communities Through Your Book Donations

Accepted books include fiction and non-fiction titles, children's books and young adult literature, academic and reference books, as well as magazines and comics in good condition.

Beyond donations, the campaign also highlights SM Cares’ long-term vision to make every SM mall a hub for inclusive learning, community engagement, and shared hope—especially for young readers and future leaders.

This initiative supports the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), particularly SDG 4: Quality Education, SDG 10: Reduced Inequalities, and SDG 17: Partnerships for the Goals.

A young boy brings tales to life as he reads to two curious little listeners at the SM Book Nook—creating moments of wonder and imagination through every page.

Visit. Drop Off. Share a Story.

Gather your pre-loved books and bring them to the SM mall nearest you. Through this collective effort, we aim to nurture a culture of learning, promote literacy, and inspire future generations—one story, one reader, and one community at a time.

Celebrating 40 Super Years of Evolving with Every You

SM Supermalls—one of Southeast Asia’s largest mall developers and operators with 88 malls in the Philippines and 8 in China—marks four decades of growing with Filipinos and becoming a trusted space where diverse lifestyles and generations connect, while continuously redefining the malling experience through sustainability, innovation, and a deep commitment to shaping the future of retail and urban life with inclusive and meaningful experiences.

PLDT Enterprise Rallies Businesses to be Their own First Line of Cyber Defense


In today’s digital-first landscape, where cyber threats evolve just as rapidly as the technologies designed to combat them, PLDT Enterprise, the corporate arm of PLDT, and ePLDT, PLDT’s ICT subsidiary, are reinforcing their commitment to cybersecurity. Championing efforts to educate, empower, and inspire proactive action toward a safer and more secure cyberspace, the group is urging its clients and customers to transform every employee and leader into a “Human Firewall.”

According to Alexis Bernardino, Field CISO and Cybersecurity Product Head of PLDT Enterprise and ePLDT, respectively, “Fraud schemes like phishing, smishing, vishing, and other similar scams, continue to increase in the Philippines. Given all these dangers, we continue to empower our clients’ workforce to become the first line of defense against cyber threats.”

A Snapshot of the Threat Landscape

The Philippines is one of the most active digital markets in the world and with it comes heightened exposure to cyber threats. Phishing, SMShing, and vishing attacks continue to proliferate, with scammers impersonating executives, hijacking QR codes (quishing), and sending fraudulent messages through messaging apps. These attacks continue to grow with cybercrime economy projected to hit $10.5 trillion globally by 2025, reflecting how valuable digital data has become.

Now, these threats have become local realities: fake CEO messages, spoofed HR announcements, and urgent payment requests are targeting Filipino businesses more frequently. But many times, a simple call to verify a suspicious message can help a company avert a major breach.

#CommittedToCybersecurity: From Awareness to Empowerment

PLDT Enterprise and ePLDT continue to promote a culture of cyber resilience through practical education. By simplifying technical topics and emphasizing everyday action, they provide essential cyber hygiene tips:
  • "Pause, Check, Protect" before clicking on links or responding to unusual requests.
  • Verify identities using trusted communication channels.
  • Use Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) to secure logins.
  • Separate work and personal device usage to prevent crossover risks.
  • Avoid oversharing on social media, which scammers use for reconnaissance.
“At PLDT, we are committed to providing secure systems and building a digital community where vigilance is second nature,” Bernardino shared.

Securing Systems and Strengthening Trust Through Innovation

To support this, PLDT Enterprise, together with ePLDT, delivers comprehensive cybersecurity solutions that include protecting employee devices and data, providing professional services to improve organizations’ security postures, and offering AI-enabled managed solutions that identify, analyze, and prevent cyberthreats.

With a proactive cybersecurity strategy shaped by decades of experience, ePLDT’s certified experts lead threat intelligence, detection, and rapid response initiatives, equipping customers with tools, tailored insights, and 24/7 protection from real-world attacks.

From advanced threat detection to real-time incident handling, ePLDT works closely with customers to assess risks, close vulnerabilities, and stay one step ahead of evolving threats.

In addition, PLDT Enterprise, the first and only telco in the Philippines to receive the GSMA Open Gateway API certification, empowers businesses with Silent Authentication, an innovative solution that enhances customer protection by enabling secure, frictionless digital transactions. This eliminates the need for traditional passwords and OTPs by allowing merchants to verify identities directly with the telco network via the Application Programming Interface.

This kind of human-plus-technology approach ensures that cybersecurity involves both the systems in place and the people who use them.

A Shared Responsibility for a Safe Digital Philippines

Cybersecurity is not just the responsibility of IT departments. Everyone has a role to play. “You can't outsource vigilance,” Bernardino emphasized. “Every organization must embed a cybersecurity mindset into the very grassroots of their organizational culture.”

This vision aligns with the broader agenda of sustainable development of the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals by enabling safe digital access, promoting inclusive education, and protecting economic activities.

“Cybersecurity has now evolved from a technical task to a shared responsibility. Our mission is to embed that cyber-first mindset into every Filipino business, and there is no better time to start than today,” Bernardino said.

TBA Studios’ Historical Biopic ‘Quezon’ Coming Exclusively to Theaters on October 15


TBA Studios has announced that its historical biopic film “Quezon” will premiere exclusively in Philippine theaters on October 15, 2025.

“Quezon” marks the much-awaited conclusion of the film studio’s cinematic “Bayaniverse” trilogy, a series of films based on Philippine history that includes 2015’s “Heneral Luna,” the Philippines’ highest-grossing historical movie of all time; and 2018’s critically acclaimed “Goyo: Ang Batang Heneral.”

Jericho Rosales plays the title role of Philippine President Manuel L. Quezon. Jerrold Tarog returns to the TBA Studios Bayaniverse as director.

Filming for “Quezon,” which is expected to follow the life of Quezon, who became the President of the Commonwealth of the Philippines—officially wrapped on June 10.

Reprising their roles from “Heneral Luna” and “Goyo: Ang Batang Heneral” are Benjamin Alves as Young Manuel L. Quezon and Mon Confiado as Emilio Aguinaldo. Iain Glen, known for his portrayal of Jorah Mormont in the hit American fantasy television series “Game of Thrones,” joins the cast as Leonard Wood.

The film also stars Arron Villaflor (who also returns to the TBA Studios “Bayaniverse” as Joven Hernando), Cris Villanueva (who plays the adult Joven Hernando), Romnick Sarmenta (Sergio Osmeña), Karylle (Aurora Quezon), JC Santos (Manuel Roxas), and Jake Macapagal (Manuel Nieto). Bodjie Pascua, Angeli Bayani, Jojit Lorenzo, Joross Gamboa, Therese Malvar, Ana Abad Santos, Ketchup Eusebio, and Nico Locco complete the cast.

“Quezon” is produced by Daphne O. Chiu-Soon with the support of TBA Studios’ Chairman Emeritus Fernando Ortigas and TBA Studios’ CEO E. A. Rocha. Jericho Rosales served as co-executive producer, with Margie Navarro-De Guzman and Atty. Rod Vera as associate producers. Jerrold Tarog and Rody Vera co-wrote the screenplay. Behind the camera, Tarog is joined by Pong Ignacio (Director of Photography), Monica Sebial (Production Design), Immanuel Verona and Fatima Salim (Sound), and The Post Office (Visual Effects).
