Symphony of Lights
To commemorate the "face-lift" of the Ayala Triangle park and to welcome the Christmas holidays, Ayala put up a light and music show inside the Ayala Triangle Gardens. This "symphony of lights" is similar to the one in Hong Kong, complete with Christmas tracks and a light show unique to the Philippines. Light designer Voltaire de Jesus and sound designer Jethro Joaquin came together to put on a wonderful show that makes every onlooker feel like a child again.

In time for the holidays, Ayala transformed the forest terrain of Ayala Triangle into a landscaped and walkable park. For this Christmas season, it boasts of a music and light show every weeknight from 6 to 7:30 pm.Unique metal sculptures scattered around the garden also add to the unique attraction that the park brings.
Aside from the light show, there are also scrap art and brass and iron sculptures around the park that serve as another attraction to the park-goers. The scrap art exhibit is by Ral Arrogante, in collaboration with Art Galleries Philippines; while the metal sculptures are by Castrillo-Hill.
Other attractions/perks of going to the ATG, as they call it, are Globe Tattoo's FREE WI-FI (it was pretty fast) and food concessionaires (Caramia-Amici's branded gelato and Big Chill).

No One Pushes Efren
"Our planet is filled with heroes, young and old, rich and poor, man, woman of different colors, shapes and sizes. We are one great tapestry." These were the words of CNN Hero of the Year Efren Peñaflorida as he was receiving his award during the "CNN Heroes: An All-Star Tribute" at the Kodak Theater in Hollywood.
Efren started the Kariton Klassroom (Pushcart Classroom) program to bring books to the children living in the slums and on the streets during his teenage years in his hometown in Cavite. With the help of fellow volunteers, he was able to form the Dynamic Teen Co. which now has 10,000 volunteers and has taught proper hygiene, reading, and writing to over 1,500 children.
These are the times that a Filipino shoud be more proud than winning a world title boxing match. These are the times when we prove to the world and to ourselves that we can make positive changes in our own ways. Congratulations Efren!
