GOING places na talaga si Kris Aquino in terms of brand partnership dahil hindi lang mga produkto sa Pilipinas ang kumukuha sa kanya bilang endorser kundi maging ibang bansa sa Asya. Kamakailan ay nasa Japan siya para mag-shoot for Asvel Products, nag-Malaysia rin para sa beauty products na hindi pa pinangalanan, galing din sa Hong Kong para sa Cathay Pacific Airline, at kasalukuyan siyang nasa Indonesia para sa TVC shoot ng kilalang kumpanya na gumagawa ng herbal medicines.
Ang herbal medicine na sinyut ni Kris sa Indonesia ay dating inendorso ni Senator Manny Pacquiao, pero hanggang sa Indonesia lang ang nasabing endorsement.
Gustong i-launch sa Pilipinas ang herbal medicines kaya kinuha si Kris bilang brand partner.
“SidoMuncul Owner & CEO, Mr. Irwan Hidayat was so GRACIOUS, they own according to Forbes.com Indonesia’s largest herbal medicine company.
“Last night when I arrived at their hotel personal nya kong ti-nour. His grandmother started their company in 1951. Nag research na po ako- Indonesia has a population of close to 267 million according to worldpopulation.com & yesterday when we were buying our traveler’s SIM cards & I presented my passport, they asked what we were doing here in Indonesia, sumagot si @nix722 na may shooting for 1 of the products of SidoMuncul & we asked kung alam nila kung ano ‘yun- napahiya na lang po kami kasi her look was like ‘ang clueless nitong mga ‘to’ they said the brand is number 1 in Indonesia.
“When we took our seats in the Garuda domestic flight, sa monitors may commercials ‘yung product super nakakataba ng puso that an iconic Indonesian company chose me to be their endorser for their launch in the Philippines.
“Dahil nga po curious ako, I asked why they chose me? Sinabi po nila, as a family mahalaga sa kanila na ‘yung magre-represent sa kanila pinapahalagahan ang pagiging nanay dahil lola n’ya ang nagsimula, mama n’ya ang nagpalaki, and now oldest daughter n’ya po ang magpapatuloy.
“Na impress ako na lumaki si Sir Irwan embracing WOMEN EMPOWERMENT. Sinabi ko po sa kanya ‘please adopt me?’ Hindi pa n’ya ko super kilala kaya nag “SURE Kris, I’ll be happy to. #gratitude #ichooselove.”
Hmm, ano kayang bansa sa Asya ang susunod na pupuntahan ni Kris para sa TVC shoot?
