“Mang Inasal loves Filipino culture and music, especially our very own OPM. We believe that helping promote our own brand of music and artists is a part of our responsibility as a corporate citizen,” explains Mang Inasal Marketing Manager Enri Luzuriaga.

“Giving our new artists their much-deserved break is an inherent value to Mang Inasal. We as a company has also a humble before becoming one of the biggest fastfood chains in Philippines today,” adds Luzuriaga.

Mang Inasal Mang Aawit will be funding the recording of two promotional songs for every artist and the production of one music video that will be played heavily in close to 400 Mang Inasal stores nationwide. A compilation album of all these original songs will also be released within the year.

“The Mang Inasal Mang Aawit music advocacy program comes at a time when OPM needs it the most. It is one big step to reviving our local music industry that was what was once the most influential in Asia,” related Mang Aawit Project Director Chris Cahilig.

“I have no doubt that many of the eight breakthrough artists will soon become the most prominent OPM artists. And it would be good to remember in the future that they all started from Mang Inasal Mang Aawit,” adds Cahilig.

Just have fun !



Life is what we make it. We are the only ones who can make ourselves happy or sad. If we allow others to give us reason not to enjoy life, it will be our fault. Happiness is a choice as they say. And i believe that.  


Me, I don't want to regret what i did in my life , but i will definitely regret what  i did not do. That's why , at my age, i still go out , go to places i want, enjoy being with friends, family, people with happy disposition in life, and continue to walk with them in this journey called Life!  Have Fun ! 













A Wish

You're so close yet so far.

At times like this I wish upon a star.
I wish you were here and not there,
Yet life is hard as yet unfair. 

All I can do is wish and wait,
Until we meet again for that is our fate.
Until the day I hold your face,
Kiss your lips within a candle lit place, 

Hold you close and feel you near,
Kiss your cheek, whisper in your ear.
Feel your skin beneath my hand,
Feel your energy inside expand. 

I'll wish for that moment as I always do,
And I've wished upon a star, it will come true.

Loving Wonderful Life !

Life is short , but it is beautiful
sometimes happy, sometimes sad
sometimes fun, sometimes crazy
sometimes exciting , sometimes boring

full of surprises, and of wonders 
many times a mystery , sometimes a fantasy
everyday challenges, often with changes 
somethings unknown , somethings yet to be shown

there is always hope, above our fears
it is giving and it is taking
at times made of hurts, full of tears
always confusing, but then reassuring

that life can bring grace and bring us to safe
life is loving, life is caring 
life is amazing, life is great 
life is ...you ... life is with loving people

life is prayers, life is blessed
always joyful , always wonderful 
life is just me...
Amazing,  i love God !  ....and i love  this Life   !
