Im proud to be Pinoy (Filipino)

Filipino artists around the world are the priceless possessions of my home country, Philippines as my history books says as the Pearl of the Orient Sea! One of them is Lea Salonga. I had the chance to watch her in CCP for her portrayal as Kim for the long running musical, Miss Saigon. And then, I watched the musical again in 2006 when the UK production did their British tour in Northern Ireland. I was really proud because the main cast, including The Engineer, and the dancers were Filipino talents. Brilliant production from Cameron!



On the other hand, the clip is quite monumental for Lea as a young talented girl who did impress Cameron's team to cast her as Kim. She was innocent and confident which did make proud us Pinoys in the music industry around the world. She became an inspiration to young Filipinos nowadays of what she achieved and brought honor and fame to the Philippines. BRAVO LEA...



I did my review as well for this musical which is posted in Dooyoo - a product review site. This is the link: Miss Saigon
