Hello, fellow Mindanaoans! Are you ready to flip-flop your way to a once-in-a-lifetime experience in Brazil? If you’re a Havaianatico (i.e. a person who loves Havaianas and the Havaianas lifestyle) then do read on!
The answer to my earlier question better be a resounding YES as world-famous fashion brand Havaianas kicks off its new Happy Soles campaign for Havaianaticos 18 and above. This campaign celebrates the fact that Havaianas has been both a witness and a reminder of Filipinos’ happiest moments. A constant companion on everything from beach trips to food trips, Havaianas has trekked up mountains, walked down wedding aisles and danced under the pale moonlight. For many happy soles, Havaianas is a daily reminder of moments spent with friends and filled with laughter – moments that define who we are.
So here’s the thing — The winner of this “Happy Soles Will Travel to Brazil” campaign, along with three friends, will fly to Brazil on an unforgettable, all-expense-paid retreat, complete with travel must-haves from Havaianas, Sony, David and Goliath, and Aloha Board Sports.
Isn’t that uber exciting?
Simply answer the question “If anything was possible, what would you do to make the world happy for a day?” as creatively as possible and you could get the chance to win an all-expense-paid vacation for four to the land of sunshine, Brazil.
Answers can be recorded via the Havaianas roving video booth (the booths will visit Davao City and Cagayan de Oro City…read more after the jump) that will travel to key malls nationwide or uploaded on the campaign website: www.havaianasphilippines.com/happysoles. The top ten happiest and most creative entries will be shortlisted by a board of judges that includes a representative from the Brazilian Embassy, magazine editor Pauline Suaco-Juan, travel blogger Anton Diaz, Capoeira guru Professor Fantasma, and the Managing Director of Havaianas Philippines. The public will then decide who of the ten will be awarded the grand prize through online voting at the campaign website. The remaining nine finalists will also walk away with prizes from Havaianas and new Sony CyberShot cameras.

It looks like Cagayan de Oro City is now, more than ever, THE next place to watch out for here in Mindanao. Ayala Land Inc. (ALI) is set to build the biggest mall in Mindanao – the Ayala Mall CDO – and is set to allot a total of P4.5 Billion for the said project.
Ayala Mall CDO will be a shopping and recreation haven and will reportedly be right smack in the heart of the city.
Cagayan de Oro City Mayor Constantino Jaraula was quoted as saying that the Ayala Mall Cagayan de Oro “would make the city the major shopping destination in Mindanao as this will be the biggest mall in the region and will further boost our beloved city as a haven for investment.”
Ayala Mall CDO will even be larger than the P3 Billion Ayala Mall Davao City, reports say.
Ayala Mall CDO will occupy a large space along CM Recto Avenue (in a vacant lot in front of Gaisano City CDO).
The said Ayala property will also take up a portion of land along Corrales Avenue.
What do you think of this development?

The benefit concert is produced by the Foursome Event Productions. The idea for the concert began when the whole Philippines was shocked when almost 72 person were killed in a massacre in Maguindanao causing fear and panic to the people . The producers immediately thought of something beneficial yet entertaining to help both police and army personnel and decided to produce a benefit concert. “It is the best time for us Filipinos to contribute in helping changing the status of peace and order in Mindanao. Every single Filipino has his own share so everyone should make a move and participate”, according to the producers.
Spotted this ad by a “top multinational beverage manufacturing company” in a regional newspaper here in Mindanao today. The company’s name wasn’t specified (and I must admit, I have qualms about this) – still, it’s worth a try, yes? Especially since a lot of Mindanaoans still don’t have jobs these days. Here’s the text of the job opening in Cagayan de Oro City Mindanao that I spotted:
