Young general Philip Nadela is first Grand Little Dreamer!!!
NEWSFLASH!
General Santos City is once again the center of the universe as young nine-year old “general” Philip Nadela won as the first Pinoy Dream Academy Grand Little Dreamer in an exciting Gala Show less than an hour ago, this night of Sunday, October 5, 2008.
Philip who was a student of the SDA Elementary School in Barangay Calumpang, did a heartfelt rendition of the famous Josh Groban anthem, “You Raise Me Up”.
He received more than 190,000 text votes from his supporters, am sure majority of which came from GenSan. The Sangguniang Panlungsod earlier passed a resolution giving all out support for this talented son of a policeman of Barangay Fatima. City Mayor Jun Acharon himself called upon all his barangay captains to encourage their people to form text brigades and distribute flyers urging the “generals” to vote for one of their own.
Philip brings home one million in cash, their own house and lot in a subdivision in Manila, and a video and audio showcase.
This is indeed the year of excellence for GenSan as once again, another talented “general” made it to the roster of “EXCEPTIONAL GENERALS” who will be role models for generations to come.
From all of us here at Bariles Republic, MABUHAY KA PHILIP NADELA! MABUHAY ANG GENERALS! MABUHAY ANG GENSAN!
See you during your performance here for the Pasko Sa GenSan 2009!

It’s about time that the City accords a “STAR GENERALS NIGHT” for our celebrities. They can do special performances. Make it public, not the usual exclusive affair.
We have:
singers
boxers
athletes
dancers
writers
and bloggers, hehe
etc…

Kaso ang nakakasama lang ng loob, sa dinami-dami ng pasasalamatan eh di sila nagpasalamat SA MGA TAGA GENERAL SANTOS CITY NA BUMOTO SA KANYA PARA MANALO! Halos lahat dito sa lugar namin naubos yung mga personal load para lang maka-boto sa kanya noh?
“Maraming salamat sa dotc, bebot haw, saka sa mga kapatid…….” dyos ko day!!!!! Kami palang mga kristyano at muslim atbp. na bumoto sa anak mo di mo pasasalamatan?
Proud na proud pa naman kami sa anak mo…… hmmmmp!!!

Ayaw palabi sa imong pagkasensitive kay waaaa jud kay angay feriod. Hahahaha!
I-rewind pa gud sa youtube ang video sa message ni Philip…he said “salamat po sa lahat ng taong bumoto sakin…” di n kailangan special mention ang mga generals noh kay ever since sa sinugdanan nakadikit na ang name ng General Santos City tanan niyang performances…sa honor pa lang na gihatag niya sa city sobra sobra na ang ‘thank you” na iyang gimanifest di ba?

@bayot_ko – sige lang pabayaan nalang natin sila sa sobrang excitement yon maraming nakalimutan but the important is si Philip parin ang nanalo SOBRANG PROUD NARIN TAYO DIBA!
Yong SDA Elementary School sa calumpang nga hindi nagtampo na sobra sobra yong suporta nila at kahit minsan di nabanggit name nila at doon pa galing si philip. In behalf sa family ni Philip ako nalang ang humingi ng dispensa sa inyo at sana maunawaan ninyo alam ko naman na hindi nila tayo kinalimutan sa puso nila.

GenSan hosts Pinoy Big Brother and Pinoy Dream Academy auditions | Bariles Republic's GenSan News Online Mag Says:
[...] Bariles hopes that all these support for their top-rated programs from the city government will make the notorious ABS-CBN’s Talent Center think twice before always singling out GenSan as a “MUST-AVOID” place for its stars, including homegrown Gerald Anderson and even the first PBA Little Grand Dreamer Philip Nadela.
