WAZZUP PILIPINAS is a multi-awarded online platform and community of Influencers and Content Creators that shares news and stories mostly about the Philippines. They have been collaborating with many brands, companies, government agencies, LGUs, NGOs, private companies and events organizers, colleges and universities, trade fairs and expositions, mainstream and online media, and just about everyone else as either their media partner or resource persons, among the many other roles that they perform in the partnership or collaboration.
Aside from their travel and tourism campaigns like the continuously ongoing Influencers Tours (of cities and municipalities) where they highlight the many tourist attractions of the country, the Influencers Feasts, featuring the many foodie finds like restaurants and other food providers, it is also among their advocacy to help reshape the dominating online content, especially on social media that is sadly littered with rude and irritating pranks, scandals, controversies, and adult or sexually-oriented content negatively serving as inferior form of entertainment with less significant learning opportunities damaging our minds especially of the youth, thus they also organized the Umalohokan Influencers and Content Creators Workshops where they have the common goal to elevate and professionalize the Content Creation industry primarily because they believe it is rightful that they help motivate and encourage fellow content creators to come out with better, and morally, ethically and legally-aligned content that are truly inspiring and worth emulating but equally rewarding as well.
As one of the DOT slogan says "Rethinking Tourism" for travel, it is also highly necessary to rethink in creating worthwhile content so influencers could help our country rise up projecting a better and improved image of Filipino content creators since it has always been the Filipino people that truly gives the ultimate reason why It's More Fun in the Philippines.
Founder ROSS FLORES DEL ROSARIO started Wazzup Pilipinas as a blog but it has evolved into more than just an online magazine that doesn't only shares news and stories about the Philippines but since he has also been invited to collaborate or partner with brands originating from other countries, he also publishes articles about foreign travel recommendations, events, and the many happenings that goes on at other countries.
Aside from promoting Philippine attractions, Ross has been dubbed as the Philippines' Pambansang Blogger for proudly advocating many Filipino work and creations, by also partnering with government agencies including national and local government units, Medium, Small and Micro Entrepreneurs (MSMEs), as well as smaller businesses, especially those who were affected by the pandemic to help them bounce back from the challenging years we all experienced. He has also been actively supporting events and projects of NGOs, and even involved in doing outreaches and similar programs for local communities. He would never decline requests for partnership with the youth because he believes that the youth deserve all the help they could get to eventually become more productive and responsible professionals and leaders of our nation, thus Wazzup Pilipinas is a frequent media partner of the many organizations of colleges and universities and other youth-led movements.
Ross is not a newbie when it comes to TV and radio guestings as he has appeared as guest on many shows including GMA 7's Ang Pinaka where he rated the top festivals in the Philippines, and then again for the second time when he was asked to rate the most viral or trending topics on social media. He also appeared on ABS-CBN's Rated K where he gave possible food trends for the coming year, and was also invited to guest on ABS-CBN's Magandang Buhay to talk about his Plantito passion advocating growing our own food through urban vegetable gardens that blossomed during the pandemic. Ross also appeared on other TV and radio shows including UNTV's Good Morning Kuya to discuss about "Fake News", Bread N' Butter featuring restaurants, and other attractions, and was also featured on Inquirer TV to talk about the popularity of social media, interviewed on PTV4 News about an event they organized, among many others. He was also a regular guests at notable teleradio shows including being a co-host at Vigattin Radio of Radyo Inquirer, had their own teleradio show on 8Trimedia where Wazzup Pilipinas TV aired with him as the main host, and continously guesting on other shows of many radio stations like DWBL, DZME, DWDD, and many others including online shows that flourished especially during the pandemic when social interaction or gathering was discouraged... and then lately on Pa-Talk of DZAR/SMNI, and Pilipinas Ngayon Na of DWIZ who eventually partnered with him. He also had a foray into the movies, playing the role of one of the godfathers of Ella Cruz's character in the movie "Martyr or Murderer" where he also had an interaction with the character of Christine Reyes playing the younger Senator Imee Marcos...and has also been given a minor role at a new upcoming TV Series called Tropa Peeps where he will play as a City Councilor and father of one of the lead teenagers.
Wazzup Pilipinas is celebrating their 10th year as an online presence and has been recognized for many achievements including getting Hall of Famer recognition when it comes to awards, receiving consecutive awards several times from many prestigious award-giving bodies. More accolades are definitely coming that we will soon won't have enough room to put them all in one magazine. Kudos to Mr. Ross Del Rosario, the Founder of Wazzup Pilipinas!"
