A very good day Sir!

I am very excited to finally meet the man behind the ship line empire that made a history in bringing the greatest cruise line frontier in Anglo-American and Eurasian Coast by 2011 up to succeeding years. It is in addition to the fact that you are a Filipino who made us all proud.

Speaking of which, Palm’s View People’s Magazine will really appreciate it to feature your story in our anniversary issue by October this year. I’m sure, many people would be very inspired by your dedication, wholeheartedness and courage to surpass all those hardships up to the tragic loss of your wife, and bouncing back again. I am wondering what really happened? It is a part of you that you never let the whole world to keep up and know.
