Kathryn Bernardo shares how she's making her Christmas more special and 'panalo'

Tweet

Fresh from the blockbuster success of her recent movie, "Hello, Love, Again," TNT KaTropa Kathryn Bernardo is looking to make Christmas extra special by spending the holidays with her family.

“Ang importante naman ay ‘yung makakasama mo sa Pasko. We’ll keep it very simple, so you’re hopefully surrounded with love and good energy, and sana ‘yun yung makuha ko this year. This will be our first Christmas in our new house so nandito kami Christmas at New Year,” she said.

Kathryn revealed that this Christmas will be all about a simple dinner, exchange of gifts, and a family photo shot in their first Christmas in their new home.

“Hindi na kami makikipagsabay sa mga umaalis na tao this year. The past few months medyo dire-diretso ang work ko so I just want to stay home, get some rest, and then bond with my family. We’ll keep it very simple,” she said.

Kathryn’s ideal Christmas would not be complete if she couldn’t get hold of her friends and loved ones abroad, so she relies on her phone to easily stay connected through messages, impromptu catchups via video calls, and sharing of photos and videos real-time.

"We're very lucky dahil using our smartphones, it's so much easier now to get in touch with our KaTropas and loved ones to share the warmth of our love this Christmas - anytime and anywhere," Kathryn said.

"Sa simpleng pag-share ng greetings, stories, video messages, pwedeng gawing panalo ang Pasko kasama ang mga mahal natin sa buhay," she added.

Now, TNT subscribers around the country also have more reasons to connect with their KaTropas this Christmas because the more they load up TNT SAYA ALL 99, the more entries they can earn and accumulate in the ongoing TNT Paskong Panalo Raffle Promo.

TNT subscribers have until Dec. 28 to join the exciting promo for a chance to be among the 5 lucky winners of Php1 million each in the grand raffle draw (TNT will draw one grand winner each from North and Central Luzon; NCR; South Luzon; Visayas; and Mindanao), making their Christmas extra special and memorable. To join, TNT subscribers may simply text “RAFFLE” to 5858 and load TNT SAYA ALL 99.

Mondelēz International Honored at IABC Triple P Awards

Tweet

● Snacks company receives award for Excellence in Environmental Sustainability

● Actions on carbon emissions reduction and plastic waste management recognized

Mondelēz International in the Philippines has been awarded the prestigious IABC Triple P Award for Excellence in Environmental Sustainability in the Food Manufacturing Category. This recognition highlights the snacks company’s dedication to driving practices that prioritize Sustainable Snacking: covering carbon emissions reduction, plastic waste management and community engagement.

Health, Safety, and Environment (HSE) Lead for the Philippines Jasser Morales (center), and HSE Engineer Leandro Nero (center-right) receive the IABC Triple P Award on behalf of Mondelēz International.

Known for beloved snack brands like Oreo, Toblerone, Tang, Eden Cheese and Cadbury Dairy Milk, Mondelēz International is guided by its vision of empowering people to snack right, by offering the right snack, for the right moment, and made the right way. This is reflected in its Sustainable Snacking strategy, which places emphasis on resource efficiency, waste management innovations, and supporting the circular economy of plastics.

Accepting the award on behalf of the organization was Jasser Morales, Health, Safety, and Environment (HSE) Lead for the Philippines. “As the global leader in snacking, we understand our unique responsibility in leading by example in environmental stewardship,” Morales said. “Our progress in sustainability reflects a commitment that goes beyond compliance. We are taking bold steps to ensure that snacking goes hand in hand with the environment and community.”

The organization’s achievements at its 61-year old Sucat manufacturing plant underscore the tangible outcomes of its sustainability efforts. The company has successfully implemented 100% renewable energy sourcing in its plant, by utilizing hydropower, solar panels, and biomass boilers, all of which have also drastically cut down carbon emissions by 96% since 2018. Additionally, the Philippine site also achieved 19% reduction in water consumption and 50% reduction in food waste, respectively, as it maintained certifications for Zero Waste to Landfill and Zero Water Discharge, further distinguishing it as a top-performing facility among Mondelēz International sites in Asia.

“Our efforts, especially at the Sucat plant, have been transformative. We continue to achieve milestones in reducing our emissions and resource consumption, demonstrating our dedication to minimizing our environmental footprint while continuing to champion mindful and sustainable snacking,” Morales explained.

Moreover, Mondelēz International has also recently concluded its flagship sustainability program called “Trash Right.” The initiative, facilitated in partnership with Plastic Flamingo and Save Philippine Seas, was designed to engage school communities in plastic waste awareness, and collection and segregation activities. As of October 2024, the campaign has already collected almost 10 metric tons of plastic waste from twenty-seven public elementary schools in Parañaque City, where its operations are present.

Caitlin Punzalan, the Corporate and Government Affairs Lead of Mondelēz International, emphasized the program’s importance in reinforcing the company’s sustainability goals. “We believe that sustainability is a shared responsibility. The Trash Right Program aims not only to collect plastic waste but also foster environmental awareness within the communities involved.”

“Through these efforts, we aim to engage the youth in sustainability,” Punzalan shared. “By equipping the youth with knowledge and practices to help address marine pollution, we are supporting the future stewards of the environment.”

As Mondelēz International continues to take significant strides toward more efficient, eco-friendly processes and practices, this award is a testament to its commitment to environmental stewardship and its role in leading the future of snacking. Through its holistic, multi-stakeholder approach to sustainability such as the Trash Right Program, the company remains dedicated to creating a lasting impact on the environment and the communities it serves.

Grab Offers Free Shuttle Rides for Homebound Filipinos

Tweet

The Grab Be Present Bus assists passengers in getting home this holiday season, helping them avoid potential challenges with accessing regular transport options and ride-hailing services amid peak in travel demand

Grab Philippines, in partnership with the New NAIA Infra Corp. (NNIC) and OneAyala, is providing free shuttle rides for Filipinos arriving at Terminals 2 and 3 of the Ninoy Aquino International Airport – the busiest terminals this holiday season.

The Grab Be Present Bus provides convenient point-to-point transportation for Overseas Filipino Workers and other domestic travelers, connecting NAIA Terminals 2 and 3 directly to the OneAyala Transport Hub.

Ride-hailing platforms in the Philippines are facing increased pressure this holiday season as surging demand collides with persistent challenges such as traffic congestion and supply-demand imbalance. Grab Philippines’ historical data shows that the number of ride bookings grows to as much as 45% in the second and third weeks of December, directly impacting the reliability of the existing fleet of Transport Network Vehicle Services (TNVS) drivers to render their services.

With the Grab Be Present Bus connecting passengers from the airport to a hub that houses other mass transit options, these concerns are effectively mitigated – ensuring more Filipinos can reach their destinations this season.

The Grab Be Present Bus free shuttle services will be available from December 12 to 14 and December 19 to 21, 2024, operating daily from 1:00 PM to 11:00 PM. Passengers who wish to avail of the service can find Grab marshalls stationed at the arrival halls who will be ushering them to the pick-up point. 

They can also directly proceed to the pick-up points located at Terminal 3 (Bay 4) and Terminal 2 (Bay 5). To board the bus, passengers simply need to register and present their Grab app to the marshalls.
