  • "If you like the path you're on, you keep going. If you don't, you turn. You make another choice." Goosebumps. Amazing. Thanks Maria Ressa!

    Im 38 and I wish I had a lecture like this in school.

    Go Maria Ressa. Many trolls who are paid will comment negatively on every guesting you have on youtube. But you are an inspiration for those who genuinely love the country, and for those who can see the obvious truth in the sea of fake news ❤️
  • Inspiring talk by a humanitarian leader. She gave much advice that can help everyone throughout their lives, and especially to someone entering adulthood. She gave these students a glimpse into honesty, responsibility, and courage.

    Bravo! I wish she was our Speaker in our Elementary graduation! Or even in high school!

    It is very seldom nowadays to see a person who is ready to fight for what is right. She was tagged and sued for only one reason: telling what is happening in the Philippines. Telling the truth will always be a big big No for those coming from the wrong side. As a Filipino, it's a pride seeing someone who is willing to offer her life to fight for what is morally right.

    Sana dumami pa ang kagaya ni Maria Ressa! Nawawalan na tayo ng magagaling at mabubuti. Evil is winning!
