GMA artists at Phil Expo Day in Seoul

MANILA, Philippines - The Kapuso network lends a helping hand to the Department of Tourism as the latter mounts the country’s participation in Expo 2012. Kyla and Jay-R are all set to showcase the Filipino’s world-renowned musicality when they perform at the forthcoming Philippine National Day. According to GMA Network chairman and CEO Felipe Gozon, helping the government mount such events abroad is part of GMA’s ‘serbisyong totoo’ to the Filipino nation. ‘We must do our share in boosting our image in the global arena. The least we can do is lend our talents to the Expo in Korea.’

The arrangement was recently formalized at a MOA signing at the GMA Network Center. In photo are (from left): Kyla, Jay-R, GMA VP for ETV Marivin Arayata, GMA EVP Felipe Yalong, DOT Asec.
