Julia Roman Abueva
I remember the first time I heard this great little singer was when she sang for the opening of the Southeast Asian Games 2005 which was hosted by the Philippines.
I was impressed that at 9 years she could already perform in a big event.
That time I was teaching in Thailand and one of my ESOL pupils expressed his admiration to Julia and he even wished to meet her.
I know there are many children prodigies out there in the world and they just need exposure to be acclaimed worldwide.
Julia is one of the Filipino prodigies that has garnered the admiration in the neighboring countries of southeast Asia. As I have googled for her name I found that she was also asked to perform the 13th ASEAN Summit 2007 in Singapore .
Such a talented girl. Kudos Julia!
