Singaporean Pop Sensation Nathan Hartono Trains MMA with One Women's Atomweight World Champion Angela Lee

Wazzup Pilipinas!

The largest sports media property in Asian history, ONE Championship (ONE), held an MMA seminar at Evolve Far East Square early Wednesday, 7 December. Singaporean pop sensation Nathan Hartono stepped onto the mats to stand across ONE Women’s Atomweight World Champion Angela “Unstoppable” Lee.

The 20-year-old Lee is the youngest world champion in MMA history. She is undefeated at six wins and no losses, capturing the title last May. Lee took the time to perform a few essential mixed martial arts (MMA) drills with Hartono, including educating the singer on proper striking techniques and the basic self-defense.

Last November, Hartono made an appearance at ONE: DEFENDING HONOR, gracing the stage with a live performance as well as being tasked to sing the Singaporean national anthem just moments before the main event bout of the evening.

Angela Lee, ONE Women’s Atomweight World Champion, stated: “Nathan is a cool dude, he really tried his best in all of the drills we had him do. It was definitely interesting to see someone who has no background in MMA perform some of the basics. I had a lot of fun and I hope Nathan did too. It was an honor for me to meet such a big star in Asia. Nathan, if you ever want to come back to Evolve to train, the door is open for you!”

25-year-old Nathan Hartono is an actor and singer who was born and raised in Singapore. He made his singing debut after winning the Teenage Icon competition back in 2005. A year later, he released his debut album, LET ME SING! Life, Love and All That Jazz. This year he became the first runner-up in the first season of Sing! China. Just recently, Hartono also tried his hand at acting, starring in his first ever television series, Halfworlds.

Gift Ideas For All Occasions: Peking Duck Ham and Pinoy Pork Ham Delivered Right to Your Doorstep

Wazzup Pilipinas!

In 2005, while observing local ducks raised by relatives in Nueva Ecija, the owner of True Deli Cafe thought of how many varieties of poultry and meat have become estranged from the Manilenyo palate. “Not entirely their fault,” she thought, as very little of these flavorful Filipino delicacies ever reach the city shops. The scarcity gave rise to unfamiliarity which created the gustatory indifference which exists today.

Challenged by this realization, the owner began to experiment with duck to come up with a product to bridge the unfamiliar with something familiar: Duck Ham, which became an overnight commercial success. With supply in hand, she tackled distribution: a deli-restaurant she called True Deli Cafe.

True Deli Cafe, a casual dining restaurant that serves regional dishes highlighting the diversity of local flavors, has some great gift ideas for the holiday season. They are offering hams delivered right to your doorsteps. The hams are made available for delivery so we can enjoy True Deli's creations in our own home.

We were fortunate enough to get our hands, and taste buds, on these delicious smoked ham treats - Pinoy Pork Ham and Peking Duck Ham.

But these are not your ordinary hams that you can buy from your favorite supermarket or grocery. They are only available exclusive at True Deli Cafe which is located at GMA-Kamuning EDSA just beside the MRT. It's literally right beside and connected at the southbound side of the MRT. To be specific, the address is Upper Ground Floor, Victoria Station 1. 5 Sergeant Esguerra Avenue, South Triangle, Quezon City.

DOTr Statement on Calls to Oust Sec. Tugade

Wazzup Pilipinas!

There seems to be an orchestrated effort to take Sec. Arthur Tugade out of the Department of Transportation. Sec Tugade is an upright man. He abhors corruption.

He knows Jack Lam as one of the locators in Clark when he was CDC president but that doesn't mean Sec. Tugade is involved in any wrongdoing. It is not CDC who grants permits for online gambling. In fact, Sec. Tugade was very strict in granting BPO permits to make sure it was not being used as front for online gambling.

Sec. Tugade is answering the baseless accusations against him with work, work, work. We will soon relaunch the Pasig Ferry, we're working on having the driver's license cards out by first quarter next year, we're fixing the PNR to Bicol or determine which fractions can be made operational ASAP, we're working on opening NAIA-X Phase 2 until Terminal-3 before end of the year, we're working on unclogging the choke points to move LRT extension to Cavite, we're talking to govt properties that can be opened to help ease out traffic, we're making sure passengers have an avenue to complain regarding taxi drivers who refuse them this Xmas season, etc.

Trabaho po ang sagot ni Sec Tugade sa mga walang lamang mga akusasyon sa kanya.


For reference, here is the CDC PERFORMANCE OF SEC. TUGADE:

According to the COA reports, Secretary Tugade led CDC to a level of performance which is unparalleled in the 20 years of its existence. In a report issued last October 6, COA said that CDC’s net income hit P697.03 million last year, capping three years of record-setting revenues.

Sec. Tugade took over as head of CDC in December 2012, when it posted a net income of only P187.28 million. In 2013, the figure jumped 77 percent to P331.74 million followed by P554.464 million in 2014. According to COA, under Sec. Tugade’s leadership, CDC has reached new heights in CY 2015 in transforming Clark Free Port Zone (CFZ) into a modern industrial estate and premier service and logistics hub. Likewise, for the same year, it also achieved outstanding financial performance and surpassed significant achievements in CYs 2013 and 2014.
