He’s Not Waiting for a Hero—He Became One: The Journey of Engr. Eric Raymundo

In a world on the brink of ecological collapse, where smog clouds the skyline and rivers run dark with waste, one man dares to stand at the crossroads of crisis and change—fueled not by fame or fortune, but by an unwavering passion to save the planet. He is not just an engineer; he is a visionary, a warrior, and a steward of sustainability. This is the story of Engr. Eric Raymundo.

As the President of Bayanihan Para Sa Kalikasan Movement Inc. and the Technical Director of Aksyon Kalikasan Org., he has become a formidable name in the realm of environmental activism. His life’s work is rooted in the science of sustainability, but powered by the soul of bayanihan—the Filipino spirit of collective effort. From grassroots communities to corporate boardrooms, he has tirelessly championed solutions that push the boundaries of what’s possible in energy efficiency, pollution prevention, and circular economy implementation.

What sets him apart is not just his expertise, but his integrity. In an era where greenwashing is rampant, he remains a purist—an engineer who speaks with data, moves with purpose, and leads with heart. His advocacy for green productivity and chemical-free cleaning systems is more than technical know-how; it's a call to action, a roadmap for organizations and households to embrace a lifestyle that leaves no ecological footprint behind.

Whether he's orchestrating clean-up drives, leading seminars on net-zero transitions, or advising stakeholders on climate resiliency strategies, he doesn't just talk the talk—he walks the path less traveled, often with mud on his boots and the fire of a better future in his eyes.

His mission is clear: to ignite a nationwide consciousness that caring for the Earth is not a choice, but a responsibility. With Bayanihan Para Sa Kalikasan at his side, he is not merely participating in the environmental movement—he is reshaping it, one bold initiative at a time.

The planet needs heroes. Fortunately, it already has one. Let's meet Engr. Eric Raymundo

From Cruise Ship Chef to Viral Vlogger: How Eduard Laya Cooked Up a New Life on the Streets

Eduardo “Kuya Ed PH” Laya: From the High Seas to the Streets, Serving Passion with Every Frame

From cruise ship kitchens to the streets of storytelling, Kuya Ed PH serves grit, flavor, and inspiration with every frame.

A seasoned Japanese chef turned vlogging mentor, his journey stirs up courage, creativity, and the bold taste of reinvention.

From the heat of cruise ship kitchens to the vibrant energy of street vlogging, he is known to thousands online as Kuya Ed PH—is a living proof that mastery knows no bounds.

A certified Japanese chef with a JISS license and over 15 years of experience as Chef de Partie aboard world-class cruise ships, he has brought more than just recipes ashore—he’s brought heart, hustle, and a hunger for storytelling. With advanced training in food preparation and sanitation, and a burning drive as a businessman and entrepreneur, he founded ERL Foods, a Japanese street food cart brand born from his passion for authentic cuisine and accessible flavors.

But he didn't stop at food. In the last two years, he has carved a niche as a content creator, livestreamer, and street vlogging mentor, sharing real-world tips and techniques with aspiring vloggers and foodpreneurs. His journey from seafaring chef to street sensation is a testament to reinvention, grit, and the courage to hit “record” and share one’s story.

A humble trailblazer, he once said, “Pasensya na po kung medyo late—1st time ko sa ganitong forum.” Yet despite the hesitation, his story now inspires a wave of creators ready to take the spotlight, one street, one dish, and one vlog at a time.

Let's welcome, Eduard Laya.
