The country's Prince of Pop, Erik Santos, will go to Beijing this August after being tapped to sing in the 2008 Beijing Olympics closing ceremony.
In an interview, Santos said that he is thrilled about being chosen to represent the country in the world's biggest sporting event. "Since I'm carrying the flag of the Philippines, talagang papatunayan ko na 'yung pinapakitang talento ng mga Pilipino mas higit pa doon ang kayang ipakita ng mga Pilipino," Santos said.
He said he is now studying on how he will render his song and and how he will introduce his song in Mandarin dialect. He said he also had his throat checked and was advised to vocalize daily.
For the Olympics concert, each country will be representated by their local celebrity superstars. The concert, which is considered one of the major highlights of the Olympic games, will be televised worldwide.
