It’s the Chinese New Year once again! And our country is steeped with Chinese traditions and celebrations that it almost seems natural to us! We also have a huge number of our countrymen that are Chinoys! But I recommend these 2 Chinoy icons as role models that you should follow!
There are dozens of celebrities out there. Several of them are also Filipino-Chinese. But for me, these two stand above the rest. They exemplify the character and virtues that every one should strive for. Excellence. Passion. Integrity. And heart. These two Filipino-Chinese celebrities are worth it to follow!

He’s not just a champion student athlete before, he was also an academic achiever. Graduating from the esteemed Ateneo De Manila University, he balanced studies with his basketball career. He later went on to play for SMART Gilas and the PBA. But that’s not enough! He is also well-lovd as a commercial model, actor, and host! How’s that for a model Chinoy? He was even part of the elusive Ten Outstanding Young Men!

Another Filipino-Chinese icon that successfully transcended the barrier between college sports and showbusiness is Lady eagle Gretchen Ho! Hot on the wave of college volleyball fame, Gretch easily handled the rigors of being a UAAP Women’s Volleyball champion alongside her Management Engineering degree at the Ateneo De Manila University. Now she juggles between professional volleyball, hosting events, and being a regular at the ABS-CBN morning show “Umagang Kay Ganda”. Follow this “woman-in-action”!
More and more Filipino-Chinese icons are getting known for their excellence and zeal. Let us celebrate with them this coming Chinese New Year!
