June 20, 2024 –  Another milestone was made at the Embassy of Indonesia, Asia Leaders Awards and Rising Tigers Magazine collaborated to bring together leaders from different industries along with the Diplomatic Corps. Rising Tigers Magazine recently launched thier June Issue “Power and Purpose” featuring Pia Yanson as the cover Leader. Andria Terese Nicolas, the VP of Tag Media Group and Director of Asia Leaders Awards commended the Leaders for being fearless.

“I’d first like to welcome all of you for joining us to celebrate this meaningful occasion. On behalf of Asia Leaders Awards, we would like to express our gratitude to H.E Agus Widjoyo, distinguished guests from  the Diplomatic and the Embassy of Indonesia for being a generous host. I’d like to thank our Rising Tigers Board and to our Team for leading this event.

It’s not so often that revolutionary people enter an industry, in our case we call them the Men and Women of power and Purpose. At this generation we don’t lack leaders, but risk takers. Courage is what I want to highlight tonight. A lot of people asked me what makes someone an Asia Leader? They are individuals who can be successfully and authentically themselves, because in our world today it is difficult. The people who are willing to think differently, challenge the status quo, and pursue their dreams even if it means going against conventional wisdom or taking a path that others might consider foolish. They are Trailblazers. What we have tonight are brave leaders because they inspire trust and confidence and motivated a large community for excellence. 

We at Asia Leaders Awards would like to encourage everyone, the Filipino People, to join us to take our stories of our inspiration everywhere. Together we have demonstrated the bayanihan spirit that sparks the Rising Tiger in every Filipino. Our organization would like call upon everyone to listen, you have proven to us that Filipinos are indeed brave entrepreneurs, political leaders, and citizens. At TAG Media Group, we foster a culture where every voice is heard, every contribution is valued, and give every individual an opportunity to thrive and be seen.

In order to uphold values of justice, integrity and empathy, you need to be brave. Remember this, leadership has no place for cowards, its alright to be afraid but make sure you make fearless decisions, because that is what the Filipino’s deserve. Congratulations to our Asia Leaders, you became the symbol of your people and the hope of our strong nation. At Asia Leaders Awards we strive to build a nation where courage prevails. Ladies and Gentlemen you are our Men and Women of Power and Purpose. Thank you for joining us.”
