At a Christmas lunch with media recently at the Gordon Ramsay Bar and Grill at Newport World Resorts, Kevin said he was grateful for his family, first and foremost.
"My kids are growing up very quickly. My wife is very patient and very understanding. I'm very thankful that I'm very well. I'm also thankful that my parents are healthy. Family is very important. I'm thankful for that. I'm also very thankful for people like Harold (Geronimo, who is Megaworld's VP and head of public relations) and our executive management, who share our passion to uplift lives and to help the country. Who every day work very hard and fight for this cause. I can't begin to tell you how fortunate I feel to be surrounded by people like him."
Kevin, one of PeopleAsia's "People of the Year" awardees for 2025, reveals, "A lot of things have changed after 15 years of doing things a certain way. I had to do some big changes. But I took my time. And I'm thankful that it was smooth. I feel that I was guided," says Kevin.
