Ronnie Liang, a singer and Army reservist, released his new album “Para Sa Kapayapaan” on June 12, just in time for Philippine Independence Day.
Ronnie said in an interview, “We wanted na magkaisa for peace. Akala natin ang sundalo for war lang. Through this album, malalaman nila na mayroon din kaming mga kanta. Composed ng mga soldiers itong album na ‘to. This is a tribute for the armed forces,”
Ronnie saw the sacrifices of soldiers for the country after joining as an Army reservist, since he experienced these sacrifices himself.
“Nakita ko’ yung mga sacrifices nila, nagpunta ko sa Sulu, nagduty ako, tapos ‘yung COVID during the height of the pandemic, so nakita ko ‘yung kanilang sacrifices. At least ‘yung talent ko sa pagkanta, nagamit ko to give recognitions,” he regarded
“At least pagtanda ko, ‘pag wala na ‘ko sa entertainment industry, ‘pag lumingon ako, I did something to the country,” he added.
He stated that all record earnings would go directly to the military.
