“Music is the language of the spirit. It opens the secret of life bringing peace, abolishing strife.” - Khalil Gibran

Staying connected might be something that is difficult to maintain while we are facing this pandemic, but A-People are determined to keep the connection alive through music and lyrics.

Last May 22,  the #OneAboitiz E-coustic Night went live on AGORA. It was a musical thanksgiving for our frontliners who have been working away from their families and to our fellow A-People who continuously share their effort by staying and working at home.

Performers from different business units — AEV, AboitizPower, Pilmico, Aboitiz Construction, and PETNET — serenaded A-People all over from the Aboitiz Group. Not only that they came from different business units, they are also from different regions. We had performers from Metro Manila, Cebu, Davao, Iligan, Baguio, and many more!

Urong-sulong po nung una talaga kung mag-cocomposed po ba ako or cover na lang since kinakalawang na at madaming ginagawa sa work pero naisip ko po kasi yung mga maluPETNETheroes at lahat ng Frontliners,  etong kanta na to, maliit na bagay man, pero yun lang ang maitutulong ko sa kanila para kahit papaano malaman nila na na-aappreciate yung mga sakripisyo na ginagawa nila. Masaya po ako na naipakita ko sa lahat yung talento ko at naipagmalaki ko ang buong PETNET family. Alam ko po na Together as One, malalampasan din natin lahat to.

– Lexy Salamat, PETNET

Live audiences were encouraged to tag and mention team members and frontliners to extend their appreciation and gratitude. To see everyone coming together to celebrate talent and show gratitude, this is true #OneAboitiz in action. Wanna relive the moment? Click here to watch the replay.
