David Gurnani is the Biggest Loser in Asia

Indonesian David Gurnani crowned as ‘The Biggest Loser Asia,’  and Filipino Carlo Miguel is a runner-up.

Just look the before and after photos of the top 3 finalists, isn’t it amazing how they manage to loss such weight? If I am one of them losing that much weight is already a big price for me, so kudos to the 3.

Now that’s a big, big loss!

David Gurnani received USD 100,000.00 as his winning prize for “The Biggest Loser Asia” contest.

Philippine Military Academy (PMA) Class 2010 top 10

Cadet First Class Ireneo Bontilao Belen, 23, from Calindagan, Dumaguete City will lead the Class 2010 of the Philippine Military Academy (PMA). As a class valedictorian he will receive the Presidential Saber, President Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo (PGMA) Achievement Award for Academic Excellence, Philippine Air Force Saber, Academic Group Award, Natural Sciences Plaque, Air Force Professional Courses Plaque, and JUSMAG Award for being the top graduate of the Air Force, Association of Generals and Flag Officers (AGFO) Award, and Australian Defense Best Overall Performance Award for being the number one in Air Force Service Core Courses.

Cadet First Class Froilan Jick Binlingan Pinay-an, 24, of Poblacion Hungduan, Ifugao is the class Salutatorian

The third placer is the pride of Igpit, Misamis Oriental, the 25 year-old Cadet First Class Nonito Ong Ebal Jr., a son of Baranggay Kagawad.

Fourth placer is Cadet First Class Jhonson Riveza Gonzales of Del Rosario, Pamplona Camarines Sur.

Fifth placer is Cadet First Class Jacob George Avila Kho of San Vicente, Baguio City.

Cadets First Class Joel Delos Santos Perante, 22, of Nula-Tula, Tacloban City, Leyte is the sixth placer

Erwin Ramos Villanueva, 25, of Dasmariñas, Cavite is the seventh

Alfie Pancho Agarao, 23, of Cabbalas, Pequeno, Carles, Iloilo, eighth

Karen Nuevas Padayao, 21, of Ormoc City, Leyte, the only female cadet who landed in the top 10, ninth

Ric Ivan Cordero Joven, 22, of Suralla, South Cotabato, 10th.

Most of the top 10 placers are coming from the poor to average family. Belen is a son of a tricycle driver and a housewife, but that is not a hindrance for him to be the class valedictorian of PMA 2010 and with putting God first in all the things he do everything can be possible.

Again, the country produced additional 226 PMA graduates and they will be automatically become an officer in Philippine Army (122 will be joining), Philippine Navy (59 will join) and Philippine Air Force (45 will join). We hope that the country’s hope to success will be on this young officer’s hand. They will be tomorrow’s leader and we hope that they will use their power in leadership for the betterment of this country. We have leaders of the country today who are PMA graduates then but they have been a shame for us. They have been working for money not for the country, so I put our hope for these young officers, to defend, protect and to lead us.

Yahoo Answers: Do you believe Melisa Cantiveros was the clear winner of Pinoy Big Brother Double Up?

Do you believe Melisa Cantiveros was the clear winner of Pinoy Big Brother Double Up?

A few days after Melisa “Melai” Cantiveros was announced as the winner of PBB Double Up, some fans questioned the showing of the vote ranking of the housemates 4 days before the big night. (PBB: Vote results not rigged ) They said it affected the standing of 2nd Big Placer Paul Jake Castillo (who was leading at that time) in the final tally of text votes.

The management of Pinoy Big Brother denied accusations that the voting system had been manipulated to favor Melai and maintained that she deserved the win.

What do you think? Do you think Melai indeed is the rightful winner or was there a manipulation that took place in the voting system to favor one housemate?

For me, Melai is the rightful winner, and I am sure that who ever won between Paul Jake Castillo and Melisa “Melai” Cantiveros both of them deserves it.

Paul Jake as a good player on every challenge that Big Brother gave to the housemates, being a friend to everyone inside the house and by being true to himself and to others makes him the big winner to me.

Melai deserves to be the big winner for me too because she is the one that made me watch and like PBB even more, everyday I stick to the 24/7 channel to watch her crack some natural jokes. I love it when she makes the housemates and most of us viewers laugh with her kingkay acts. It is not even acts because it is natural of her being a jolly girl inside the house. I know, that those who watch PBB loves her of being true to herself, I mean she doesn’t care if the people will like what she is going to do, she just do it whenever she wants it. She has no reservations of showing what she wanted to do or say inside the house, unlike the others who are just playing it safe just to impress us.

Whether the management manipulated the results or not, I am still happy that Melai got the first place. Without Melai, I don’t know what happened to the PBB today. Without Melai, I don’t know if we felt so ‘kilig’ and in-love watching the show. Without Melai, PBB will die sooner and that is the truth.

Melai saved the PBB and it is rightful that the management chose her to be the big winner (if ever it is true that the ABS management manipulated the results) and I don’t care if they did because everybody knows she deserves it.
