The Cultural Center of the Philippines has a newly minted president, a wife and mother of four who believes art “keeps our minds and souls alive.”

A Business Economics graduate from the University of the Philippines-Diliman, with an MBA from Fordham University, Kaye has always been passionate about arts and culture despite her business background. It is CCP’s collaboration with the National Commission for Culture and the Arts , and the Korean Cultural Center Philippines in celebration of the 75thanniversary of diplomatic ties between the Philippines and South Korea.

She points out the obvious — how K-Pop is popular among Filipinos and is among the colorful threads of Pinoy pop culture. Hard to compete now with the Kim Soo Hyuns and Jungkooks idolized by this generation of Filipinos, young and old alike. “K-Pop has proven to be very popular among Filipinos,” agrees Kaye. “The concert is free but it was immediately full when registration opened.”“The vision of the CCP is to promote and preserve the best of Filipino arts and culture. The world today makes this both easier and harder to do. Technology has made us all more connected, but is also creating the noise and distractions that make it difficult to get the right message across.
