Joining Kiko and Diego in this powerhouse cast are Eula Valdes as Ruby Perez, Claudine Barretto as Diamond Labrador, Cindy Miranda as Amber Castillo, Mon Confiado as Don Silvio Castillo, Mark Anthony Fernandez as Stanley Rocco, and Gold Aceron as Onyx, Billy Villeta as Dustin, Andrew Muhlach as Jett, Christine Bermas as Amethyst and Sapphire, and Angelica Hart as Pierra—each delivering compelling performances that elevate the series’ gripping narrative.

“The success of Totoy Bato is a testament to the incredible passion of the production team and the stellar performances of the entire cast. We thank everyone who poured their hearts out to bring this story to life. It was their dedication that turned every episode into a memorable journey that we all shared with the audience,” shared TV5 President Guido R. Zaballero.

Don’t miss the thrilling final stretch of this heart-stopping action saga that kept viewers on the edge of their seats night after night. Totoy Bato airs weeknights at 8:00 PM after Frontline Pilipinas on TV5’s TodoMax Primetime Singko, with simulcast on ONE PH. The series can also be streamed on-demand via the Cignal Play app, available for download for free on both Play Store and App Store.

Goodday Takes Over the Season with Its ‘Summer All’ Campaign

Tweet

When you look at your socials during the summer, blink, and your feed is already packed with beach sunsets, island-hopping clips, and out-of-town escapes that look straight out of a travel vlog. It’s the season of getaways, and as the posts keep coming, it’s hard not to pause and think, “Sana all!”

But summer doesn’t have to look like everyone else’s highlight reel. While some are off chasing waves, others are finding joy right where they are—spending the season in the city, discovering simple pleasures, and creating their own kind of fun. It’s a reminder that summer can be just as meaningful and memorable, even in everyday moments.

The season can manifest itself in many different moments, big or small. This can show up in small pauses in between busy days, where you just go for a walk or go on a quick merienda break. This can also be those fun little after-office hangouts that stretch into the evening, or basking in the sunset during golden hour, just as the city starts to slow down.

Summer is not just a season of fun and excitement; it’s also a season of relaxation and a great time to meditate, reflect, and rest in the midst of busy months and seasons.

These small moments—unplanned, everyday, and shared—are where summer truly lives.

This season, Goodday invites Filipinos to rediscover that feeling through its “Summer All” campaign, a celebration of the idea that summer isn’t a destination. It’s a vibe you can find wherever you are.

When it comes to helping you make summer truly yours, Goodday helps you stay ready for the spontaneous and simple shared summer moments. Together with Cloud 7, its ambassadors, Goodday brings “Summer All” to life by cherishing the little moments that turn the season into something memorable. Whether you’re out exploring, unwinding after a long day, or simply enjoying a quick pause, you can own summer in your own way.

Summer is all about unwinding and feeling refreshed, and every sip should match that vibe. With its cool, fizzy burst, it’s like being transported to the beach, soaking up the sun, and letting your worries drift away.

It’s also the perfect companion for all kinds of summer moments, whether you’re cooling down after a busy day at work with your officemates, taking in the golden hour view, or relaxing after a spontaneous weekend adventure.

However you choose to enjoy it, Goodday is there to remind you of those fun, carefree summer celebrations, and that refreshing feeling of a tropical escape, anytime you need it.

With every sip of Goodday, which contains paraprobiotics for immunity support, ensures that you stay healthy during the warm seasons and enjoy your summer moments hassle-free. Whether it be a quick sip during a summer adventure or as your drink of choice after a meal, Goodday helps you stay refreshed.

Sometimes, summer isn’t about relaxing vacations and exciting getaways; it’s knowing that summer can be experienced and celebrated even in the simplest of moments.

Find out more about how you can celebrate Summer All with Goodday via Facebook and share the enjoyment with your buddies.

Beyond the Mirror: Dr. Ruthlyn Pecolera-Salvosa and Verde Creatives Redefine Beauty, Resilience, and Inclusivity at the 2026 BlogCon

Tweet

Dr. Ruthlyn Pecolera-Salvosa, ENT-Facial Plastic Surgeon and founder of RPS Aesthetics

Aesthetic and functional rhinoplasty specialist Dr. Ruthlyn Pecolera-Salvosa, shares a deeper look at aesthetic care. At the intimate bloggers conference held yesterday, April 15, 2026 hosted by Verde Creatives, Dr. Ruthlyn Pecolera-Salvosa, ENT-Facial Plastic Surgeon and founder of RPS Aesthetics, shared that "most patients who seek cosmetic procedures are not chasing perfection but looking for a renewed sense of self-assurance."

This year 2026, Verde Creatives' Bloggers Conference hosts and gives us a diflerent kind of conversation on beauty, featuring Dr. Ruthlyn Pecolera-Salvosa - a surgeon whose philosophy is rooted not in vanity but in the "Psychology of Confidence".

As the Philippine acsthetic industry moves away from purely cosmetic alterations toward a more holistic understanding of self-image, Dr. Salvosa has emerged as a pivotal figure in this transformation.

In a strategic partnership with Verde Creatives, the event will serve as a focal point for social media influencers to document Dr. Salvosa's mission to elevate the standards of beauty and self-confidence in the Philippines.

The "Nose Fairy" and the Genesis of a Vocation

Dr. Salvosa's profound sense of service began at age four when she witnessed a doctor solve her sister's two-year medical mystery involving a foul-smelling nasal discharge by removing a foreign body. This carly encounter with the "magic'" of surgical resolution steered her toward medicine.

Today, she leverages her rigorous Otorhinolaryngology (ENT) training to seamlessly balance acsthetic form with internal respiratory function. Her technical precision and ability to fix complicated revision surgeriesprocedures where previous surgeries by other doctors had failed carned her the affectionate moniker of the "Nose Fairy" from her patients.

The Architecture of Confidence: Core Principles

Challenging the "copy-paste" formulas often seen in modern cosmetic surgery. Dr. Salvosa champions "Natural Look Aesthetics". She proves that the most successful surgery is the one that is "visually undetectable". Her practice, RPS Aesthetics, is governed by several core tenets:

• Customized Care: She rejects trendy designs, ensuring every procedure honors an individual's unique bone structure, facial symmetry, and identity so they wake up feeling as though they were "born that way".

• The "Morning Mirror" Effect: Her practice prioritizes the powerful feeling of self- assurance patients experience when they like their bare reflection, recogizing that mental health and self-image are inextricably linked.

• Ethical Transparency: Employing a "friendship-first" philosophy, she dedicates 30 to 60 minutes for initial consultations to assess emotional readiness. She sets a striet cthical benchmark by refusing surgery to those with unrealistic expectations.

• Functional Integrity: Utilizing specialized ENT surgical tools and techniques, she ensures that any aesthetic modification to the nose enhances functional respiratory outcomes alongside aesthetic ones.

Resilience in the Face of Adversity

Dr. Salvosa's rise to the top of a male-dominated surgical field was forged through immense personal and professional resilience. Early in her career, she frequently met with skepticism due to her young and petite appearance. Rather than being deterred. she let her calm demeanor and technical precision in the operating room serve as her primary advocate, turning doubt into 
national admiration.

Her journey is also marked by pro found heartbreak: during a high-risk pregnancy with triplets. she tragically suffered the loss oftwo ofher babies. Supported by her husband, Don, this period of deep reflection strengthened her dedication to her surviving son and her vocation, teaching her to balance the demanding roles of mother and surgeon.

A Strategic Synergy for Inclusivity

This narrative of resilience and dignity perfectly mirrors the advocacy of Verde Creatives. Founded by Ms. Bemz Benedito. a recipient ofthe Global Transgender Hero award, the agency is celebrated for championing "All Kinds of Love." LGBTQIA+ inclusivity, and community support for marginalized areas like Payatas.

 Ms. Bemz Benedito, Verde Creatives Head and Founder

Together, Dr. Salvosa and Verde Creatives are educating digital influencers to shift the narrative of acsthetic surgery away from surface-level vanity toward a deeper understanding of how these procedures contribute to a person's overall quality of life.

Looking Ahead: "Bigger, Bolder, and Brighter"

Reflecting Dr. Salvosa's vision of integrated care. RPS Aesthetics has evolved into a multidisciplinary "one-stop shop" employ ing dermatologists and other surgeons to address comprehensive beauty and wellness concerns. The clinic's operational excellence extends globally, offering a comprehensive 14-day protocol and medical travel clearances for international patients-such as those traveling from Canadato ensure full healing and support.

Having captivated audiences across League Magazine, the Philippine Daily Inquirer, the Philippine Star. and a milestone national television feature on Rated K, Dr. Salvosa's story continues to inspire. Attendees at the upcoming conference will gain exclusive insights into the future of RPS Aesthetics, which Dr. Salvosa promises will be "Bigger, Bolder, and Brighter."

Luzon Institutional Partners lead the charge toward a digitally inclusive Philippines at GCash Digital Excellence Awards 2025

Tweet

The 5th GCash Digital Excellence Awards (GDEA) drew the curtain on another milestone evening for Philippine governance, spotlighting the local government units and national agencies that are actively reshaping how Filipinos access public services faster, safer, and entirely cashless.

Held at the Grand Hyatt Manila in Bonifacio Global City, Taguig, the ceremony gathered awardees under this year's theme: "Recognizing Digital Pioneers: Empowering the Public Sector for a Modern, Inclusive Philippines." Of the 45 awardees recognized nationwide, 32 came from Luzon, a testament to the region's growing commitment to digital governance and financial modernization.

Through the digital payment infrastructure of GCash, these institutions have made tangible strides in building government services that are not only efficient but accessible to every citizen, regardless of location or circumstance.

Leading the charge in the Ilocos Region, the Bauang Public Market of the Municipality of Bauang, La Union, was honored for championing sustainable financial digitalization across public market transactions, making cashless payments a daily reality for vendors and buyers alike.

In Cagayan Valley, the Metropolitan Tuguegarao Water District earned recognition for improving citizen access to water-related services through secure digital payment channels and streamlined online service options.

Central Luzon emerged as a strong cluster of awardees, with five institutions receiving citations: the City of San Fernando in Pampanga, the City Government of Baliwag and its Baliwag Public Market in Bulacan, the Municipality of Morong, and the Provincial Government of Bataan. Across urban centers and provincial communities alike, these LGUs have rolled out digital payment systems for local fees, utilities, and market transactions while expanding their online service footprints.

Also recognized for Digital Transformation Excellence in Utility Efficiency was the Metropolitan Naga Water District, underscoring how utilities are embracing digital tools to improve service delivery. Meanwhile, CALABARZON contributed four recognized institutions to the roster: the City Government of Santa Rosa in Laguna, the City Government of Imus in Cavite, the Municipality of Tanay, and the Pililla Water District in Rizal, each implementing traceable, citizen-friendly digital systems that simplify access to government services.

Rounding out Luzon’s awardees are the Municipality of Mauban, Quezon, and its Mauban Public Market, the City of Lucena, and the Provincial Government of Quezon, and Antonio L. Raymundo, Jr., President of the League of Municipalities of the Philippines – Bataan Chapter, who were recognized for their efforts to expand online payment channels and digitize public services across provincial towns—bringing modern governance closer to the communities that need it most.

The ceremony also recognized several national government agencies for advancing digital transformation and financial inclusion in public service. The Department of Transportation – Metro Rail Transit Line 3 received the Digital Breakthrough Growth Award for expanding digital payments in commuter services. The Land Bank of the Philippines, Department of Social Welfare and Development, and the Philippine Crop Insurance Corporation were named Champions for Digital Advocacy and Connectivity for widening access to digital financial services. The Home Development Mutual Fund (Pag-IBIG Fund) earned the Leader in Sustainable Financial Digitalization Award for its long-standing digital initiatives, while the Securities and Exchange Commission, the Philippine Statistics Authority, and the Bureau of the Treasury were cited as Catalysts in Financial Inclusion for strengthening digital access and transparency in public financial systems. The Department of Trade and Industry also received the Excellence in Digital Transformation Award for integrating digital platforms into services that support Filipino businesses.

Mynt Chairman Ernest Cu credited the partnerships that made progress possible across these communities. "2025 was truly a year where GCash doubled down on its commitment through partnership with the government in advancing digitalization in our country. We are moving beyond ear access to delivering world-class innovations that people use daily. We could not have reached these heights alone. Together, we have brought strengthened fiscal management, streamlined disbursements, and connections to the LGU," he said.

GCash VP and Head of Public Sector Cleo Santos also added, "We are one with the government in the mission to serve every Filipino. Everything we do is anchored in our shared vision of finance for all. Every leader here tonight is a testament to the belief that no Filipino should be left behind in the digital economy,"

The GDEA's award categories were designed to meet institutions where they are in their digitalization journey. First-year adopters were recognized through the Digital Breakthrough Growth Award, while the Excellence in Digital Transformation Award honored agencies that have demonstrated sustained growth in digital transactions from 2022 to 2025.

Sector-specific recognition was given through awards for Digital Transformation Excellence in Healthcare, Education, and Utility Efficiency, while the Catalyst in Financial Inclusion Award celebrated programs that meaningfully expanded financial access for underserved Filipinos.

Long-standing partnerships were honored through the Leader in Sustainable Financial Digitalization Award, which is reserved for agencies with at least five years of collaboration with GCash. The Leader in Sustainable Financial Digitalization for Public Market pushes for governments' call for cashless payments and payment options. These Public Markets maintain at least 70% active vendors using GCash as a payment option to its customers.

The numbers underscore the momentum. The Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas reports that over 97% of government-to-government and government-to-employee transactions are now digitally processed, while retail digital payments now account for more than 57% of total transaction volume nationwide.

Setting the bar for what digital transformation must achieve, Anti-Red Tape Authority (ARTA) Director General Ernesto Perez stressed that results must ultimately be felt by citizens.

"Digital excellence within government rests on tangible results experienced by individuals and enterprises. It is seen in faster transactions, simplified requirements, dependable payment channels, and platforms that reach communities regardless of geography or circumstance. Through this initiative, GCash and ARTA continue to champion the goals by promoting ease of doing business, enhancing digital payment systems, and fostering stronger collaboration between government and the private sector," he noted.

By putting the spotlight on Luzon's digital trailblazers, the 5th GDEA reinforces that the path to a modern, inclusive Philippines is already being built, one LGU, one transaction, and one empowered citizen at a time

realme marries aesthetic design with premium quality in its upcoming Number Series

realme is set to launch the newest addition to its Number Series, the highly anticipated realme 16 Series 5G. With a focus on tactile materials, refined aesthetics, and upgraded portrait capabilities, this Series is set to be one of the most iconic lineups yet in the Number Series.

Nature-inspired Design Aesthetics

At the core of the Series’ design update is the Urban Wild Design, created in collaboration with renowned Japanese designer Naoto Fukasawa. The concept blends the raw, organic feel of nature with sleek urban aesthetics.
