This could have been the speech used during the awarding ceremonies:

"I feel very proud to be receiving the Influential Social Media Evangelist award for the Best Choice Awards 2014. I feel great honor for receiving this recognition. Deep within my heart, I am very thankful to the awards council for choosing me among other nominees, and very thankful to the people who also nominated for me during the selection process. Thank you all for your support.

In WazzupPilipinas.com, I feel great honor of working in an environment full of creativity. The online community gave me the environment where I can feel free to think and utilize my best knowledge with other equally respected professionals who all share the same interest and passion. This award is precious for me for it is a great honor to be recognized for my efforts.

I have learned many aspects of life through my blogging and social media community especially from those who have become my motivating factors who have generously shared their valuable time and knowledge to help me get to where I am at right now.

Every person who influenced me in both positive and not-so-positive ways  have inspired me a lot to reach my potential. I met a lot of different nature people which became instrumental to increase my confidence and creativity. The many partnerships and collaborations were a constant driving force that kept me reaching for more worthwhile endeavors. Thank you for opening so many doors that allowed WazzupPilipinas.com to enter so many worlds of opportunities.

I had encountered a lot of challenging tasks but always tried my best to complete them full of passion. My imagination and creativity led me to achieve this award and will continue to work with dedication and pride towards the development of the entire online community even though it is somehow divided by factions who have their own respective ideas of the right path to follow.

Maybe I can inculcate into their minds that "There is only one destination that we need to reach so it doesn't really matter which mode of transportation or road we take. What matters is how we get there the best possible way that will also ensure no one is left behind." These lines helps me to achieve my target and break my hurdles one by one. No other force can stop me from believing that every dream is possible just as long as you patiently work hard for it.

This award means me a lot to me, and will remind me every time about WazzupPilipinas.com even after retirement, or when I pass it on to somebody who will continue its honorable legacy.

I am very thankful to my fellow bloggers, my partners who collaborated with me, the many brands and organizations who invited me to their events and campaigns, my family, relatives, neighbors and friends, and all the readers and followers of my blog and social media accounts. Thank you from the bottom of my heart. Thank you very much for this invaluable award. Thanks you very much for believing in Wazzup Pilipinas!"

Here is the profile statement written in the Best Choice Awards 2014 souvenir  magazine:


"Ross Flores Del Rosario is an Electronics and Communications Engineer who dabbled into Information and Communication Technology (ICT) as a profession so he can have an excuse on why he spends so much time with computers at work. He was a former ICT Officer of a multi-national company for several years until he decided to put up his own business because of his entrepreneurial spirit, and the fact that he felt a lot smarter than his boss. He also created a blog site which aims to help in promoting the beauty of our country.

Ross is the self-proclaimed Social Media Evangelist and the man behind WazzupPilipinas.com – the multi-awarded Filipino online community lifestyle blog site which helps promote everything about the Philippines. The blog is primarily partnered with the Tourism Promotions Board of the Department of Tourism, among many other agencies, and focuses on promoting Philippine destinations, establishments, events, brands, and advocacy movements. The lifestyle blog also highlights accomplishments of Filipino achievers, influencers and social innovators. He uses the blog to promote social awareness and appreciation of everything around us.

Wazzup Pilipinas is composed of several uber creative and passionate correspondents all willing to contribute their talent and expertise to personally experience the beauty of the Philippines and to be able to generously share their stories to the world. The contributors are a mixture of many talents ranging from high school and college students, to professional writers and corporate employees. Just like Ross, the members of his online community also love to travel and try out new things.

Ross dreams of a Philippines where everyone collaborates to create more opportunities and better living conditions. He believes that if we want to become successful in life, it must start by inspiring and helping others to reach their own dreams. Everything else will reciprocate."
