this is the backside of one of the most successful filipinas i've ever met. (photo taken this morning).
her name is mercy corrales. doesn't ring a bell? probably, because she hardly comes out in the papers/tv, even if she's extremely newsworthy and inspiring.
she worked with levi's for 30 years -- where she ended up running the brazil market, and later on the japan market.
think about it a (1) filipina (2) woman running levi's in JAPAN.
and don't be fooled -- levi's in japan is on a totally different level from the levi's in rest of the world -- she pretty much made it that way.
a few years back, she was asked to step out of her retirement to run starbucks japan, with nearly a thousand stores.
uncredeeb.
