FLASHBACK<<<<<<< REWIND
VOLUME 35
402 January 24, 2014 Arturo had to leave and Kute struggles with the thought that her father might have failed her again.
Ayun, committed na sa lihi si Mahal. At huminto sa balut…nice touch, mahal. Parang totoo.
Welcome home Nikki. Sermon si lola about dieting…hehe
Tawag si ghel mahal to NT. load-an ang tablet at ipapadala ang ultrasound
Mag-tri-treat daw si lola sa mga bagets. Kailangan na lang ng funding for nursery project instead of treat. turning Abby’s room into nursery. Abby to stay in Nikki’s very large room
Gulat si kute na nakaalis na pala si ta. hindi pala namalayan ang paalam ni ta.
Ayan, moving furniture na into new nursery. “This should keep me busy for now.” sabi ni Nikki. Luke says “para make move on?”
Good payo from older brother. Relationships need a lot of sacrifices.
Ayan na sila Dad!!!
Things are glum at chibugan. text si nt kay ta kung nakabalik na ba SN.Mmukhang everybody misses ta, pati guests and lino tahimik.
Tuloy-tuloy lang text ni nt kahit no reply.
Okay, may load na ang tablet!
Nikki sees cutey pa2T ultrasound while having lunch at veranda with whole family. Ayan naka connect na SN and anti polo! Facetime yata. Pinakita si baby bunso sa SN family. Ayan, warning na ba si baby bunso about best actress family. Si kute ayaw magpatawag na tita.
tvc for glade sabel joma boy mahal and abby
Yehey andito na pala sis pippin to update hehe
Hhindi ako nakabangon kaagad kanina kasi bumungad tvc ni joma “When it’s this foamy, things can happen.” tapos pinakita bumubukadkad na bulaklak ni Maya then mahal says, “minagik mo ang magiklog ko”. waaaahhhhhhh!!!!
#SexSells
#OrIsItJustMyDirtyMind?
Ayan, ghel mahal asking for blow by blow update on quiz bee
Don’t forget barya in shoes, that’s what varried me thru.
Naku, uncomfortable silence when talk turns to ta who is still not present in SN
Bhoy mahal and his mommy heart to heart sa veranda. Ma compliments son on how he’s handling Maya’s pregnancy. Admits that he didn’t correct Maya when she started assuming na naglilihi siya. Even if it’s just psychological if it keeps her in good health, no harm done. Mama says hirap to pretend for long.
Kute wala pa rin electric fan, paypay paypay kay Cho. nt suggests calling ta, ayaw ni kute. sanay naman wala siya… sad naman, sana makarating si ta!!!!
Page 202 na pala tayo. saan na kaya si sis tiny? Buti na lang na-immortalize na si Beetle sa thread na ito. nag-disappearing act na!!! hindi pa natin nakikita si luke mag-drive ng beetle!
Bhoy mahal, kagigising. pretends to be still asleep when ghel mahal comes out of bathroom. Galing ng bagong gising acting ni bhoy mahal. Sari-sari bilin ni ghel sa home remedies.
Punta sa kitchen magluluto for mahal.
SN preparing cho for quiz bee. check pati barya in shoes. Maya calling with lots of bilin. pati kute & lola nanay dami bilin. Hanap ni cho si lolo tatay.
Maya, wala pa si tatay? Tinawagan na ba?
Kute, ayaw tawag, all weekend ni hindi nag-text. away tayo pagtinext ni Maya.
Mischa…tulong-tulong din. dami ko na-mi-miss yata.
Sige babasahin ko lang yung sayo if may kulang I’ll add up nalang. dami ko rin kasing phone calls ngayon kaya di masyadong nakaconcentrate.
Ayun Maya alagang-alaga kay Ricky. May bunos kiss pa si Ricky
Bahala na si sis mared sa bonus kiss. sarap ng boses ni “bagong gising” na mahal.
May kiss talaguuuuh?! Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah ako na nga bahala dyan.
Cho & kute leaving for quiz bee. longing for ta to be there. it hurts kute to hear him with so much expectation.
Tells Cho about pangako na napapako.
NT calls ta but cannot be reached.
Sakay na rin sa tricycle lahat sila punta sa quiz bee
Ricky leaving. dami baon padala si ghel mahal. ibaiba para kung ano ang ma-crave. medyo taas kilay na si mama.
Teaser: bhoy mahal kaya kayo nagkakagulo kasi hindi kayo nag-co-communicate
Mama asks bhoy mahal hanggang kelan magpre-pretend. admit it na hanggang maaaga. si bhoy mahal ayaw hanggang nakakatulong daw to keep maya’s mind off her own lihi, ok lang.
Mischa…sablay ako sa teaser. bahala ka na.
teaser:
Tumawag din si Maya kay TA ayun kakarating lang ni Ta sa airport anong oras na daw. makakapunta daw sya sa quiz bee.
Maya tumatawag kay kute sabi ni kute nasa stage na si cho, gusto sabihan ni Maya na makaratong si TA si kute ayaw makinig sa sasabihin ni maya. pero nasabi parin ni Maya na darting at ayun nakita ni kute sa gilid na andun na si TA kakarating lang. (kala ko gulo na naman buti nakarating si TA)
Mansion: dumating na si Maya and Ricky gulat sila DE ang aga daw nila. Sabi ni Maya medyo masama daw pakiramdam ni Ricky. Sabi ni DE are u sick? Sabi ni Maya naglilihi po.
Insert na yung kay sis pippin na yung pag-uusap nila DE and Ricky na sabihan na si Maya sa totoo.
Yung pasimpleng sumngit si Lino sa may likuran
Pairalin na naman ang pride
Pride ang dahilan kaya nasayang ang 15 years
Change venue ang nursery
Iba na pag madaming rooms ang bahay
Di kaya ang makapanalo kay cho eh yung plasma?
Yun din ang nasa isip ko since out of the blue yung review question na yan.
Share ko lang from starstudio Mag Feb issue mas clear angle sa sharing of mic during solidarity concert
Hhhmmm… may nakapuna din kaya sa kanilang reel sweetness?
#HabaNgHairMoJods

Tanong ko lang… Iniwan ba si Maya habang kausap ang mga taga SN sa skype? Biglang nag iisa na lang sya sa table ng bandang huli..
At ginawang alkansya ang sapattos ni Cho..
dinig na dinig ang kalansing ng mga barya… (tama ba yong terminology?)
Kalansing, sis! Baka kasi kapag mas marami sis, mas malakas maka-build ng confidence!
Bentang benta kay Jods ang Whoops Kiri ni Chenes!!! Sabagaaaay. Ang saya saya talaga ng Cebu trip nila!
Mabuti umabot si TA. Nahabol kaya ang mga magnanakaw? Sabagay, can’t completely blame Kute rin for having little faith! Baka turning point na ito ng super ng relationship nila.
Saw that earlier, sis sa pagsilip sa updates. Thought ano kaya iyong plasma na banggit. Then napanood ko ang episode! Iyon pala iyon. Out of the blue nga!
Naku Ricardo, you’re courting disaster.. wag ganyan..
lagot ka kay mischief este Mrs. Chief pala…
medyo over the top din ang pag aasikaso ni Mrs…
Simon, dinalaw mo na ba si Edz?
Akala ko nga nalimutan na nila yung plasma na state din ng matter eh. Medyo field ko din kasi yan kaya aliw ako kapag nagrereview si Cho, can relate!
Oo! Grabe nga. Pati naman talaga sa pagpapahiga? baka gusto nya lang to make bawi dahil sa mga puyat ni Ricky sa canton!
Yong ginagawa ni Maya kay Ricardo ay form ng paglilihi.. di nya napapansin..
Ayun na nga, the whole paglilihi phase nya yata, yung asawa nya ang paglilihian nya! Ang gwapong chinito nyan! Hihihi
Hmmm, saan nga kaya hahantong ang pretend lihi na ito!
Baka lapit ng lumabas si Simon sis.
Me naman sis, super rusty na diyan! Pero can relate din sa quiz bees!
More on Math ako than Science eh. Wala lang choice ngayon kasi I teach the subject kaya kailangan alamin
Grabe, sobrang anticipating ako dito…. naging stagnant ang EdMon… ako pa naman ang dakilang pusher ng LT na ito! Simon, balik na sa San Nicolas!!!
Saan na si sis pippin, lumalabas na naman iyung favorite niyang white t-shirt.
Favorite kong outfit ni SC, iyong powder blue (ba iyon) na long sleeves shirt na suot niya sa Baywalk date nila ni Maya!
Aanhin kaya ni Ricky bhoy yong pagkaing pinabaon sa kanya… dami nun ha.
di kaya si Ricky naman ang bumilog nyan sa dami ng pinapakain ni Maya?
Baka susunod nang in the works iyan sis since mukhang malapit ng ma-resolve ng husto ang kina TA and Kute!
I hope so. Baka magulat na lang tayo, si Edz at Simon na pala. Hindi na lang pinakita yung ligawan…
Lapit na Valentine’s Day!!!! Ano kayang gimik ng mag-asawa?
enjoy si Jodi este si Mayang maglihi..
Mukhang enjoy na enjoy nga nung dalawa every step of the way!
#SinongDalawa
#EhDiKungSinongNakikitaNyoSaScreen
Pare pareho lang naman ng suot si SC everyday layp, kulay lang naiba. Ako mas gusto ko siya pag naka shirt lang. Ayuuuuuuuun!
Siyempre, sis, dapat mas super bongga than their ‘friends’ date last year, and super sweeter than we have been seeing so far, since Mr. and Mrs. na sila!
Panahon na rin na magka-lovelife si Simon. Medyo matagal na rin naman siyang super family friend ang role!
Pwede silang mag-babymoon… nauuso yun lately. Sa beach naman…… or sa baguio, para malamig, masarap ang may ka-hug.
How would they top their ‘friends date slash friendly intimate dinner’ sa mansion ano? Me likey sana kung susuungin naman ni Ricky ang traffic and hassles, maidate lang ang mahal nya sa labas! Tapos syempre iba pa yung pag uwi nila.
Inayos muna ang negosyo nila.. kasosyo si Mercedes?
Oo nga pala! Hahahaha!
Baka pagbalik ni Simon hindi na owner ang sasakyan. Hindi na rin nakat-shirt, naka-business suit na. Chos!
Pero long overdue na talaga ang lovelife ng paborito kong martir. Hahaha! Malapit na ko mawalan ng faith sa manghuhula na sinabihan sya na mai-inlove sya muli.Hahaha!
Kakaloka talaga tayong mga adik..
lahat ng characters sa BCWMH tumatatak sa puso natin..
ito lang yata ang teleserye na hinahanap ng televiewers ang mga characters… regardless of the role… napamahal na sa sila sa atin…
Tara, hanapin natin yong mang huhula..
Saan ba kasi sya nagpahula?
True sis. Si sis lunar iyong naghahanap kay Chona di ba, matapos ang letter ni TA about the lipstick if I am not mistaken. Nag-appear siya kanina pero di ko napansin ang lipstick!
Nang mapanood ko nga ang ‘Ekstra’ na movie, sis, tuwa ako sa mga nakita roon na nag-appear din sa BCWMH, maliban kay Doris at Dr. Isidro!
Hmmm, parang maganda iyang Baguio sis fanney, since memorable sa kanila iyan.
Pero sis mared, dapat kapag sabay ng Valentine’s Day , kakaiba and iyong super romantic talaga. Maganda rin that Ricky will eat his words na ayaw niyang lumalabas ng mismong day, for his mahal na reyna’s sake! Of course, unlike last year, iba na ang ganap pag-uwi ng house this time!
Kung matutuloy sila sa Panagbenga ano? Kaya lang post Valentines na yun plus malaki na siguro ang tyan ni Maya by then.
Yeah, yun nga gusto ko mangyari. Yung mag effort si Ricky, magpareserve, sumuong sa traffic, mag abala sa chocolates, flowers, the works! Tapos ibang usapan na pag uwi
Sana by that time showing na si Maya, sobrang romantic lang na HHWW sila habang namamasyal with that tiny bump.
In fairness sa Time Airways, tuloy ang bawat request ng bakasyon at day-off ni Maya ah.
HHWW sa Baguio at sana makita uli nila yong babaeng nag fli flirt kay Cardo nung nasa Baguio sila..
Oo nga sis, considering na hindi na talaga siya alone this Valentine’s Day gaya ng sine-senti niya dati, di ba!
Parang in real life, kapag around three months, di pa masyadong halata, sis. Not sure din. Baka depende rin sa built.
Dapat doon din sa place kung saan sila naglakad dati! Awwww, tapos malamig pa!
Sis koffie, baka himatayin na sa inggit iyung flirt ghel na iyon kapag nakita sina sina Ricky and Maya!
Sis fanney, mabait na kumpanya ang Time Airways!
Speaking of, hindi pa masyado na-explore iyong training ni Maya as international FA!
Yeah! Saka bawal ang help ng kids, Ricky ha? Wag ka madaya
So. That is assuming na real time talaga ang pregnancy ni Maya? Excited pa naman ang isa dyan na makitang malaki ang tyan ni ghel!
Nabawi kaya ni TA yong mga inipong regalo?
I just want to share this.. Susko RY! Dumadami na ang videos ng pagsasayaw mo

Yup. Pati nung ginawa si Baby Bunso.
Bilib naman ako sa pagresearch mo…
pati kay baby bunso..
So, di pala kinakain ni SC yong pabaon ni Maya..
Pag may inantok sa LAS, alam na..
Baka may Hapon na naging antukin.

Ikaw ang kumain sa niluto ni Maya?

#GumilingKaPinakaGwapongChinito
Good morning klasmeyts! Hope Jodi’s feeling better na! Sana rest lang ang katapat!
Oh, I’m sure with all the well-wishes pati na ang pagmamahal sa kanya ng guwapong… bata, lalakas na sya.
Sana. Saka sana di na sya maging sakitin, kakaworry eh.
Oo nga.pansin ko lang sakitin talaga sya.
I dunno what Chenes do or takes kasi yun, di masyadong nagkakasakit eh, sana share niya.
Meron talaga na sakitin talaga. Baka weak immunity system. Madali sya kapitan ng sakit. She really need to take care of herself more.
I’m also sakitin.Me umubo lang ang bilis ko mahawa.
Sabagay. Ako naman, hindi. Wala naman akong ginagawa. Pero madalas lang ang simple cough and colds, dahil sa weather, plus yung rooms namin sa skul, ang lalakas ng aircon, paglabas mainit naman.
Bagay talaga sa kanya yung White pants
Lalo kung wet ang white pants….dahil galing sa beach
Di ba napagtripan ng mga adik yung outfit nya: white pants & hawaiian shirt. ..suot nya nung outing & bday ni Maya. Wish natin nun it was wet.. Hihihi..
What if…
Si Minerva ang makaisip kung paano mapapaamo ng Sir nya ang nagta-tiger mode na misis nito?
Sa halip na magalit si Mayabels sa pagpapanggap ni Ricardo eh bigla syang matuwa rito?

How is your co-star Jodi Sta. Maria?
For someone who’s been acting for so long, she’s very down-to-earth. We get along well. She’s very funny. Though she doesn’t want me to say this, Jodi is a very good singer.

Ser Chief admires Jun Magsaysay, Henry Sy, John Gokongwei and Chris Tiu
WILL SOON FLOURISH By Wilson Lee Flores (The Philippine Star) | Updated January 26, 2014
Richard Edison Yap is more popularly known as “Ser Chief” in the ABS CBN 2 TV drama series Be Careful With My Heart.
The will to win, the desire to succeed, the urge to reach your full potential… these are the keys that will unlock the door to personal excellence. — Confucius
Entrepreneur, actor and Philippine STAR subscriber Richard Edison Yap is more popularly known nationwide as “Ser Chief” in the ABS CBN 2 TV drama series Be Careful With My Heart, and previously as the character “Papa Chen” in the TV series My Binondo Girl. A newcomer to Philippine entertainment two years ago and a now a leading actor, 46-year-old Ser Chief recently granted the STAR an exclusive interview over lunch at the breathtakingly scenic Antipolo mansion where he regularly shoots his TV series. Here are excerpts.
PHILIPPINE STAR: What do you think are the reasons behind the popularity of your long-running hit TV series, Be Careful With My Heart?
RICHARD YAP: I think it’s because it is a very light TV show, we have no contrabida, walang sampalan, walang mga kidnapping (no villains, no slapping scenes, no kidnappings); it’s more of a normal family life. I think ABS CBN was then experimenting with light romantic comedy.
Why are you quite popular with women?
Maybe it’s because of the character they see (me portraying). They see a family man who is attached to his kids… maybe you should also ask them. (Smiles)
Lifestyle Feature ( Article MRec ), pagematch: 1, sectionmatch:
Was your TV role in My Binondo Girl your first acting job?
Yes. The only previous acting I’ve done was in fourth year high school, in a play.
What was the play and what was your role?
The play was A Man For All Seasons and I played St. Thomas More. He was the Chancellor or right hand man of England’s 16th-century King Henry VIII, who wanted to divorce his wife Catherine of Aragon who did not bear him a son, so that he could marry Anne Boleyn. In that play, as St. Thomas More, I had my head cut off. (Laughs)
How did you get into acting, who or how were you discovered?
I once had a Chowking TV commercial. My going into acting was due to the cousin of the production manager of My Binondo Girl, she was my former classmate when I studied two years of pre-med course at Velez College in Cebu. She called me if I wanted to audition for a TV role as Kim Chiu’s father.
At that time I didn’t want to audition, because when she texted me that message, my reply was: “Nilolokomo ba ako (Are you kidding me)? At my age, parang laos na (it seems I’m over the hill) to be an actor, at the age of 44.” She texted back: “No, serioso ito, mag-audition ka na (No, this is serious, just go to audition).” This former classmate of mine is Charito Vilbar, the production manager is Ms. Dagang Vilbar.
You’re quite a late bloomer in your career. Your views on late bloomers and advice to those people still planning on shifting careers?
They shouldn’t hesitate to try something new, because it might be the thing you’re looking for. I was thinking that I didn’t really like sales, because I’m not a natural salesman. I’m not naturally talkative to people I don’t really know… I’ve worked for a furniture firm 22 years as a division manager. Actually, I had plans to retire at 45, in order to try something new. I was thinking of some other kind of business, maybe with my brother, then this chance to act came.
I read in news reports that you’re planning a new restaurant with your co-star Jodi Sta. Maria?
Not a restaurant, those were mistaken reports, we’re thinking of a business like imports of consumer goods. I was misquoted there.
Who are other late bloomers you admire?
Kenny Rogers as a singer, he started only in his 50s. KFC founder Colonel Sanders.
How did you get to know former Senator Jun Magsaysay, who you endorsed in the last election?
Sobrang mabait si Senator Jun Magsaysay (Senator Jun Magsaysay is a very good man). At that time, there were offers from two other election candidates for me to publicly endorse them, but it’s hard to endorse people you don’t know. I wanted to endorse a leader like Jun Magsaysay, who I can be sure would do the right things for the Philippines.
What were your parents’ dreams for you, to be a successful businessman?
You know, it’s funny, but my late dad Alfredo Yap wanted me to be president of the Philippines. I wanted to be a doctor, but he didn’t like that. I remember as a child, he was always telling me that I’m a natural-born Filipino citizen — meaning that he and my late mother Felisa Uy Yap were already Filipino citizens when I was born. At one time, I had wanted to study law.
Do you know that the first Philippine president from your hometown, Cebu Sergio Osmeña Sr., was the son of a Chinese immigrant Pedro Lee Gotiaoco? Osmeña was his mother’s surname.
That’s interesting.
Who are the actors you admire the most and why?
Eddie Garcia, well he’s a very good actor. He has maintained his image, his image is untainted. I also admire his longevity, he’s already in his 80s.
You played the father of actress Kim Chiu in My Binondo Girl. How is she as a person? I think she’s part-Chinese?
I think it’s her dad who is half-Chinese, she can speak a little Hokkien. Kim is very nice, very down-to-earth. We felt right at home, maybe because we both came from Cebu. Her aunties are also friends of my brother. She’s like a daughter to me.
You’ve also worked with actor Xian Lim, he told me he’s half-Chinese. What are your impressions of him?
Well, Xian’s a young guy who is still working his way up in the world.
Did you give him any advice?
My advice is for him to pursue acting with passion.
Have you watched the latest Xian-Kim film Bride For Rent?
Unfortunately, I have no time to watch movies, because of our hectic schedule.
How is your co-star Jodi Sta. Maria?
For someone who’s been acting for so long, she’s very down-to-earth. We get along well. She’s very funny. Though she doesn’t want me to say this, Jodi is a very good singer.
When are Jodi and Jolo getting married?
I don’t think they have wedding plans.
Is Wangfu Chinese Bistro in Morato Avenue, Quezon City your first restaurant venture?
No, I own a Chowking fastfood business in Makati with a business partner, it’s already in its sixth year. It’s doing well.
I had another restaurant venture, but it’s not a good story. We just closed in December 2013 after 35 months of operations. It’s a Chic-boy franchise located in U.E. Recto, Manila.
How many celebrity endorsements do you now have? How much do you charge?
I must be cheap. (Laughs) Seriously, I now have 21 celebrity endorsements like BDO, Bose, Amigo pasta, Nissan cars, Chowking, Rebisco, Manulife, Family sardines, Cremtop, Celium, Planax, Beverly Hills Polo Club leather goods, ABS CBN Mobile, Maggi seasoning, etc. Many of them it’s their first time to get a celebrity endorser.
How do you feel as member of our ethnic Chinese minority that for the first time in history, the Chinese Lunar New Year festival is an official Philippine holiday with no work and no school this year on Jan. 31?
It feels good that we’re finally being recognized as an integral part of Philippine society, especially since our minority has a long history here in the country. Early Chinese traders have sailed here, long before the Spaniards came here. Many Filipinos from Jose Rizal to Saint Lorenzo Ruiz have Chinese heritage. It’s about time that our Filipino Chinese community be also recognized for our many positive cultural, social and economic contributions to Philippine progress.
How do you celebrate the Chinese New Year?
Ever since my childhood in Cebu and up to now in Metro Manila, we celebrate the Chinese New Year eve with a family dinner that usually has fish dish and fruits. We also eat the sweet glutinous rice cake ti-ke, which is known all over the country as “tikoy.”
Speaking of foods, what are the three best dishes in Wangfu Chinese Bistro?
My favorites are Singaporean chicken, chilli crab and the cereal prawns.
Your hobbies?
Well, before going into TV, when I still had the time, I used to play billiards and golf. I used to also ride a big bike or motorcycle out of town, to places like Subic, Tagaytay and Clark.
How does it feel now that more part-Chinese or even full-blooded ethnic Chinese are being accepted even in the entertainment industry without need to change their surnames, such as Kim Chiu, Xian Lim, Enchong Dee, etc.?
That’s true, in the past, an actor like My Binondo Girl co-star Ricardo Cepeda had to change his surname, his real name is Ricardo Go. Do you know that movie queen Susan Roces can speak our Hokkien dialect, though she is more French mestiza? She’s very nice, I’ve worked with her in the TV series Walang Hanggan.
Another ethnic Chinese celebrity with a similar wholesome image like yours is basketball star and TV host Chris Tiu. Do you know him?
Yes, Chris is a good guy. In fact, we’re actually going into business together soon as partners for two new outlets of Happy Lemon in Cebu. I met him in 2012 at the Chinese New Year event of SM North Edsa in Quezon City. We had kept in touch.
How do you maintain your health and looks?
I’m supposed to have a lot of sleep daily, but I don’t have much sleep now due to TV work… I have regular exercise, proper diet — in my case, I also try to eat five small meals. You have to take care of your skin; you have to have a regimen and see a dermatologist for advice on the right soap and moisturizer to use.
How’s your other new career as a recording artist?
My music album with Star Records is doing well, it’s already platinum.
Is your next project a possible concert?
Not a concert, but we’ll be doing a few shows, maybe abroad.
How did you learn singing?
(Laughs) I’ve actually always been very interested in singing. I used to be part of the glee club in high school. My favorite local singers are Gary Valenciano, Martin Nievera. And, of course, I admire the businessman, singer and songwriter Jose Mari Chan — that’s our peg.
You’re an entrepreneur, who are the entrepreneurs you look up to the most?
Henry Sy and John Gokongwei, Jr., both are “rags-to-riches” entrepreneurs who not only succeeded, but who have contributed in many ways to Philippine development. I admire Henry Sy’s determination to succeed in life, he’s a humble and good person. My late father used to work for him as his right-hand man in the 1960s and my sister today works for SM in purchasing.
I have heard a lot of stories about Henry Sy. Actually, one year before my dad died, we had dinner with Henry Sy at his restaurant in Mall of Asia in 2009 and he showed us around his mall.
John Gokongwei, Jr. is also an inspiring entrepreneur whose diverse enterprises have helped Philippine development. He’s a self-made man who also started out as a salesman, and he’s also from Cebu.
Your success secrets?
Well, I don’t think there are any real secrets to success. As you’ve often written in your columns, I think it’s still the traditional values of hard work, perseverance, integrity. Also, we should have a goal or ambition in life.
