Every day brings countless reasons to say ‘yes,’ whether to a quick break, to catching up with friends, or to treating yourself.

Available for a limited time, McDonald’s new McCafé Coco Mocha Selections are sure to be new and easy McCafé favorites, delighting taste buds by bringing together the rich taste of coffee, creamy coconut, and chocolatey notes. “Yes, McCafé!” indeed.
“We have seen in the past years that coffee is not just a breakfast beverage anymore for Filipinos. At McDonald’s, we’ve always wanted to make great coffee accessible whenever people want it. Coco Mocha builds on that, an exciting addition to McCafé’s lineup of coffee flavors, making every ‘yes’ to coffee easier. We invite our customers and fans to discover it as a new favorite to enjoy with any McDonald’s food, whether as a morning boost, a midday treat, or something to enjoy with friends,” said Celine Lagandaon, McDonald’s Philippines Marketing Director.

The new Coco Mocha selections are available via Dine-In, Take-Out, Drive-Thru, McDelivery, and food apps, with Iced Latte Coco Mocha and Cafe Latte Coco Mocha available in select stores only.
Fresh from making history with their critically acclaimed debut performance at Lollapalooza in Chicago, SB19 has released their latest single, “LAWLESS,” which they premiered live for the very first time on one of the world’s most prestigious music festival stages.
“LAWLESS” marks a new direction for the award-winning quintet, transitioning from a locally established act to a global supergroup brand. In “LAWLESS,” SB19 declares that they’re an outlaw on the run: gutsy, more determined to take chances, and not the type to seek approval.
No longer constrained by conventional industry expectations, SB19’s latest bop sets their sights on disrupting the norm, reflecting a state of creative and career liberation. As the lyrics best describe it, “I’mlawless,betterbe cautious.”
Buoyed by maximalist production and cinematic soundscapes, “LAWLESS” takes P-Pop to a more sonically riveting ground, fusing hip-hop swagger with contemporary pop, Western, and surf rock influences.
Accompanying the release is an equally audacious but strikingly entertaining music video that subverts classic outlaw tropes through tongue-in-cheek homage to Western films. The visuals show SB19’s signature blend of wit, charisma, and boundary-pushing creativity.
SB19’s “LAWLESS” is out now on all digital music platforms worldwide via Sony Music Entertainment. Watch the music video here.

As the cost of living continues to rise, many Filipinos are becoming more intentional about where they spend their money. From household purchases to everyday meals, consumers are making more deliberate choices, looking for experiences that feel worth every Peso.
This shift has also changed how people think about food. While affordability remains important, many consumers today are looking beyond simple hunger relief. They’re seeking meals that feel reliable, satisfying, and rewarding. They want meals that deliver not just busog, but an overall sense of sulit.
Chowking’s consumer research suggests that satisfaction today is driven by more than affordability alone. Among respondents, the strongest indicators of a satisfying meal were a combination of taste, completeness, and budget—factors that together create what the brand describes as a “full-feeling” experience.
In a fast-paced world where every purchase is weighed carefully, value is no longer defined by quantity alone. Flavor, enjoyment, and the confidence that a meal will leave you satisfied matter just as much.
One example is Chowking’s Siomai Chao Fan, a longtime favorite that combines flavorful fried rice, vegetables, meaty ingredients, and four pieces of siomai in one hearty meal. At ₱99, it offers a balance of affordability, variety, and satisfaction that aligns with what many consumers are looking for today.
The meal’s signature wok flavor and generous serving create what Chowking describes as a “full-feeling wok-sarap” experience that goes beyond simply filling the stomach.
“We know consumers today are becoming more thoughtful about the choices they make because every purchase matters,” said Jia Du, Vice President for Marketing at Chowking. “As people become more intentional with spending, they’re looking for meals that don’t just deliver busog, but leave them feeling satisfied as well. That’s what Chowking Chao Fan has always delivered. Through its combination of flavorful wok-cooked rice, generous toppings, and sulit value, it brings together the taste, completeness, and affordability that many consumers look for in an everyday meal. Beyond the feeling of busog, Chowking Chao Fan has long been about delivering a full-feeling experience that keeps people coming back. “
Beyond Siomai Chao Fan, Chowking’s Chao Fan lineup offers satisfying options for a variety of everyday cravings and occasions. For those looking to add a little excitement to their meals, Spicy Chao Fan delivers the perfect balance of spice and sarap for both spice lovers and the spice-curious. Meanwhile, Beef Chao Fan offers a rich and savory option for moments when customers are looking for something hearty and indulgent. For seafood lovers, the NEW Seafood Chao Fan provides a delicious and accessible way to enjoy seafood flavors without stretching the budget. Together, these variants give customers more ways to enjoy the full-feeling wok-sarap experience that has made Chao Fan a longtime favorite.
As consumers continue to redefine what value means in everyday life, meals that deliver both satisfaction and affordability are becoming increasingly important. For many Filipinos, the best meal choices today are the ones that leave them busog and satisfied too.

PUMA Philippines representatives joined the wider Southeast Asian running community as the brand officially unveiled the Deviate Pure NITRO™ at the ‘Run the Rave’ event held at the NIC Factory in Bangkok on July 22, 2026. The launch brought together the region’s elite running clubs and athletes, allowing them to experience PUMA’s newest high-performance daily trainer.
Sanjay Roy, Managing Director of PUMA SEA & Oceania, opened the event by sharing PUMA’s vision with representatives from Singapore, Thailand, Malaysia, and the Philippines. Participants then took part in a guided warm-up session before setting off on the run, getting their bodies ready for the challenge ahead.
The PUMA Philippines representatives, which included Dominic Roque, Ashley Rivera, Jeff Ong, and Rhea Bue, arrived ready to test the new footwear for the anticipated “Run The Rave” flag-off. Prominent run clubs and athletic groups like the Chinito Walkers and EZ Run Club representatives Miguel Aldeguer, Thomas Santos, and Eric Isip hit the vibrant streets of Bangkok to push the Deviate Pure NITRO™ with a fun three-kilometer night run.
These dedicated runners experienced the shoe’s capabilities in a unique, low-stakes environment that showcased the rapidly growing culture of communal running in the Philippines and Southeast Asia. The run proved that pushing physical limits and securing a personal best is better when done alongside a supportive team and an equally reliable pair of trainers.
Made for Movement
Following the run, athletes participated in the immersive Deviate Pure Experience to explore the technology driving the new silhouette. Built for maximum comfort and speed, the Deviate Pure NITRO™ utilizes nitrogen-injected NITRO™ foam to provide lightweight, high-rebound cushioning to absorb the harsh impact of running surfaces.
This means runners can conquer their daily mileage without suffering from early foot and joint fatigue. Complementing this advanced midsole is the highly durable PUMAGRIP rubber outsole, providing multi-surface traction to grip the road firmly, allowing athletes to maintain their speed and stability whether cornering on dry pavement or navigating slick, wet streets.
Join the movement and elevate your daily runs. Shop the all-new PUMA Deviate Pure NITRO™ today at PUMA.com. Follow PUMA Philippines social media pages on Facebook, Instagram, and TikTok for the latest updates and releases.
