Why Manulife Philippines tapped Richard Yap as endorser

MANILA, Philippines - Richard Yap knows show business success can be temporary, and he knows what to do in case he’s out of it. If things don’t work out, he can always go back to business, he once said, so he always reminds his kids to take care of their studies first, graduate and earn a degree because everything happening right now is temporary, so they have to be more forward-thinking especially about their future.

“We also do everything we can to make smart decisions with regard to different aspects of our family life especially when it comes to financial matters,” he declares. They can never know what will happen to them in the future, just like what happened to me. I didn’t intend to make acting as a career but God gave this so I’ll embrace it now but remain aware that it may not last, and therefore make the most of this opportunity for my family. At the end of it all, it’s all about taking care of my loved ones and giving them a secure financial future the best way possible.”

And his qualities and vision in life and the future are the reasons why Manulife Philippines, one of the country’s leading life insurance firms, chose Richard to be their newest brand ambassador.

“For a company that advocates securing the family and preparing for what the future may hold through affordable and innovative life insurance and investment products, we believe that Richard embodies the attributes Manulife espouses. We’re glad that Richard and Manulife share the same beliefs, and we’re glad he has partnered with us in advocating the financial protection of many Filipino families, now and in the future,” says Indren Naidoo, president and CEO of Manulife Philippines.
