The second edition of the Philippine Empowered Men and Women for 2019 was a huge success. The annual awarding ceremony was held last March 13, Wednesday at the iconic Music Museum. The place was literally full packed with the awardees, guests and media.
Organized by RDH Entertainment Production led by their hard working President Mr. Richard Hinola, he said that he conceptualized the PEMW to give recognition to those individuals who made a mark and excelled in their respective chosen fields and vocations. He further explained that behind the glitz and glamour of the awards is the pure intention of the organization to reach out and help the less fortunate children who were suffering from serious illness.
They have a diverse set of awardees this year, ranging from actors, politicians, entrepreneurs to philanthropists. Leading the list of awardees are former Vice-Mayor of Manila Iskho Moreno, thespians Roderick Paulate, Giselle Sanchez and Amy Perez, former PNP Chief Bato Dela Rosa, businessmen Dante Salamat, Wilbert Tolentino, film maker Joel Lamangan beauty queens Sharifa Akeel, Nette Hernandez, Samantha Mae Bernardo and Myla Tsutaichi, ace photographer Raymond Saldana, Mother of all Pageants Ovette Ricalde and many more.
The event also introduced two relatively young talents, Yumi Chung, a twelve year old Filipino–Chinese singer based in Hong Kong. She started singing at the age of 6. She idolized Ariana Grande, Lea Salonga and Sarah Geronimo among the present crop of singers. She was featured in two films in HK. During the awards night she belted out the Christina Aguillera classic “Reflections” from the animated film Mulan and Alicia Key’s “If I Ain’t Got You”. The other talent is Gabri Victoria Panlilio. She is part of the illustrious Panlilio clan. Gabri as she called by her peers is a young singer and composer with a degree in Music at St. Scholastica College. She is being managed by Corner Stone. One of her most memorable performance was when she was featured as a guest singer at Santori Theater in Japan. She admires Moira and KZ Tandingan among the local singers. Gabri loves classical piece and performed in some of the Repertory Philippines productions.
Richard Hinola was thankful to all people and entities that made the event a huge success. He is looking forward for a bigger and better third edition of the annual awards night next year and to continue his advocacy of helping less fortunate children and indigent people in the country
