He shared, "Actually, sinabak na ko sa La Salle, talking to the freshmen students of La Salle.
“Naibahagi ko sa kanila 'yung story ko.
“At the same time, kung bakit gusto naming makapag-instill ng patriotism as early as their age.
“Sabi ko, it's a different kind of journey na magkaroon ng ganitong discipline, of course, to eliminate entitlement.
“Sad to say, 'yun ang kadalasan sa generation ngayon, sa millennial age.
“So, I can be of service and of influence sa mga kabataan na, 'Hey you can be a good person by serving the country. You want to use the social media to do good.'"
