By: ABS-CBN Middle East FZ LLC "FPJ's Ang Probinsyano" This year, as a way of thanking its supporters, the series brought its television journey from the Philippines to the world, kicking off its concert tour in Manila just this October and the world tour in the Middle East this December, a significant part of the region's anniversary kick-off. True to its promise, "FPJ's Ang Probinsyano: Martin admitted that he personally asked the ABS-CBN management to bring him to Middle East to be with his kabayans. Martin, addressing the Pinoys who came said: "I have so many blessings and I wanted to give it all back to you. I really wanted to come here and thank you personally." Because of his humility and heart, capped by his magnanimous talent, Martin continues to endear himself to the audience not only in the Philippines but also in the Middle East. In the series, viewers admire Martin for his portrayal of Cardo who personifies a man with a simple dream - to give his family a decent live despite the complications and challenges of living by the values he holds dear as a Filipino. Aside from admiring Martin, Filipinos in the region can also relate both with Martin as Cardo and as a Pinoy, because of their dreams and struggles. During the "FPJ's Ang Probinsyano: "Before I became a celebrity, I was an overseas Filipino worker like you. I left the homeland believing that I could give my family a better life. I know that this is also what you aim for and that is why you are here. I understand this because I've been there. I love you all." Martin also earned the admiration of kabayans when they learned that the award-winning actor was actually battling sickness during the event. The actor shared: "Despite our hectic schedule and physical fatigue, we do not feel as tired because we know that we make you happy and we inspire you Filipinos." Martin's hard work paid off as kabayans continued to show their love as Filipinos from as far back as Jeddah and Riyadh lined up as early as 6 a.m. just to make sure they got best view in the house at the much-awaited Filipino event in the Eastern region. Martin paid back to his audience with his performances of songs such as "Ako Si Superman" which speaks exactly of the Filipino strength and resilience. Joining Martin on stage to pay tribute at the Al Khobar leg via the TFC Hour of PINAS-SAHI's yearly Filipino Community Day on December 2 is sidekick Pepe Herrera. Herrera held his own with his rendition of iconic Pinoy songs such as "Kapayapaan," Completing the Al Khobar leg is "The Voice of the Philippines" While the Al Khobar leg welcomed kabayans as early as dawn, Filipinos in Dubai showed their love as well at the thanksgiving and TFC Middle East's 20th Anniversary kick off during the Dubai leg on December 3. The audience joined Princess of the Dance Floor Yassi Pressman in her showcase of dance moves. Later on, Martin joined Pressman for a duet of Yeng Constantino's hit "Ikaw" which thrilled the fans to no end. Meantime, child wonder Onyok stole the limelight as he sang the children's song gone viral "Tatlong Bibe" (Three Ducklings). Highlighting both Al Khobar and Dubai's thanksgiving event were Martin's rendition of the theme "'Wag Ka Nang Umiyak" originally sung by Gary Valenciano and the Kapamilya stars' performance of ABS-CBN's 2016 Christmas Station ID "Isang Pamilya Tayo" which captured the essence of the event.
