I wanna believe that what happened to me last weekend was just a dream - flying out of the country for the first time to see Kuala Lumpur via the first flight of Zest Air on that lovely city m- oh, it was super amazing to be real. But looking at the pictures that I took after accidentally catching the arrival of AirAsia flight with billionaire Sir Richard Branson aboard on it, who is all dressed in red blazer and red skirt just like the rest of AirAsia flight attendants, oh, that is not a dream! That was a real fun!
It was said that two years ago, Virgin Group CEO Richard Branson and AirAsia CEO Tony Fernandes had a bet on an upcoming Formula One race in Abu Dhabi. Unfortunately for Branson, his team was left behind, making the Fernades team leads and gave him the chance to won the bet.
And with that, a special AirAsia X charity flight left Perth, Australia last Sunday, May 12, and landed on Kuala Lumpur, Malysia's Low Cost Carrier Terminal (LCCT) with Sir Richard Branson all smile while strutting his red outfit.
With a lot of different government and non-government organizations endorsing the guy from Zambales, I wasn't really shocked to know that the most in-demand actor nowadays, Mr. Richard Yap a.k.a "Sir Chief" of ABS-CBN's Be Careful With My Heart, is endorsing and actually campaigning for the guy who is a son of "our guy", Ramon "Jun" Magsaysay, Jr.
I had a wonderful chance last day, together with some local media personalities, to talk to these two lads who share same interest - to bring goodness into every Filipinos lives. And though it was too early, I must say that they managed to perked me up due to their really light mood that brought delight to everyone who attended.
With or without this press conference, I'm admitting that Senator Jun Magsaysay is on my list of senators to vote this coming May 13, 2013 election. A guy who is a son of a president who served his country wholeheartedly, if there's one more reason why I'm okay with political dynasty, Senator Jun Magsaysay is one of them.
