I’m no blogger nor am I a content creator or a so-called influencer and neither am I a vlogger — all of which I believe have been proven to greatly impact the lives of so many Filipinos here and abroad.

- PIA ROCES MORATO

In truth, in recent months, too many people of diverse professions, even the street vendor or the parking valet, participate so strongly on issues that are currently affecting our country.

While I am just an old-fashioned journalist who also did some broadcast work for a little over a decade and for an advocacy I loved but not loved by many, that being education, I continue to impart what I can to help others learn. I love radio. It has always been my platform to share with others on how we can help make the educational experience better for everyone. At RJ AM, I always carried the tagline of “bringing the streets into the classroom and the classroom to the streets” — that was because I firmly believed that learning must always be applied and multiplied. I still do.

Especially today when there is so much happening around us and the need to protect and at the same time advance our youth is at stake. In the social media world, for example, learning continues to evolve as this has provided all of us a platform for instant communication and access to many resources as well as making various connections that enable people to collaborate anytime from anywhere. I didn’t really get that from AM radio until we started to connect our programs to social media platforms for better reach.
