Ogie Alcasid has nothing but gratitude after his daughter Leila and their family united with her fiancé Curtismith’s family in a traditional “pamamanhikan.”
In a letter to Marcos presented last week to Agriculture Secretary Francisco Tiu Laurel Jr., pork producers said the emergency use of the ASF vaccine would result in the inoculation of 6.3 million piglets and fasteners.
CEO Patrick Pouyanne has a raft of ambitious projects aimed at propelling growth through the decade, not least a $10 billion offshore investment in Suriname that received a green light Tuesday.
The pamamanhikan is a Filipino tradition where a man and his family formally ask for a woman’s hand in marriage in front of her family.
