ダバオ市パナカン地区にある大統領ゲストハウスの外で、金曜日の夜遅くから土曜日の早朝まで行われた、ダバオのメディアとのクリスマスパーティーにて、大統領は Martin Nieveraの“IKAW”から始まり、Richard Harris’ の“Didn’t we?”で終わった、即興のコンサートを開催した。最初の曲の後、大統領が好きで、時々アカペラでも歌う、セブアノ語の歌、“Balud sa Kapalaran” (Wave of Destiny)、 続いてBette Midler’s の“Some say Love” 、そして John Denver’sの “Seasons of the Heart.”をリクエストした。観客は、時々音程がずれても気にせず、コンサートを楽しんだ。また、大統領が法律を勉強した、San Beda Collegeを卒業した年、1972年に発売されたThe Fifth Dimension’s の“If I could reach you”も歌った。
12月12日に行われた、Malacañang Press Corps とのクリスマスパーティーでも、大統領は数曲を歌い、ダンスも披露した。
Thank you for your continued support of Davao’s portal site “Davaotchi”. “Davaotchi” is an information portal about Davao that has been running for about seven and a half years since September 2016 with the aim of conveying the charms of Davao to Japanese people in Japanese and making them more aware of Davao. Thanks to everyone’s support, we have gained a certain amount of recognition, such as being featured in a magazine, and many people have started to hear the term “Dabaotchi”. On the other hand, we have prioritized the mission of conveying the charms of Davao to as many Japanese people as possible, so there is almost no profitability, and we have allocated the profits generated from other businesses to the site management, but we have no plans for the future. As a result of careful consideration of scalability and development, Davaotchi has decided to recruit supporters who can support Davaotchi in order to better manage the site. We considered charging for the site or introducing a subscription plan, but we wanted to deliver information about Davao to as many people as possible, so we decided to simply ask for support from Davaochi fans first. You can support us using PayPal or credit card (debit card) below. We look forward to your cooperation. See more news articles
