From Maitum, Sarangani Province, Meriam Aguilar Dimaudtang always knew she wanted more from life. She wasn’t born into wealth, but she was born with a vision—to uplift her family and inspire others through business.
“I’ve always dreamed of becoming rich,” Meriam shares. “Not to flaunt it, but to help my loved ones and others like me.” – Meriam Aguilar Dimaudtang
Despite earning two college degrees, she never saw herself as an employee. But her parents had other plans. Pressured by expectations, she worked at the local municipal treasurer’s office, setting aside her dream of owning a business—temporarily.
Her first encounter with multi-level marketing didn’t go well. She admits she didn’t trust it. But six months later, still longing for capital and a breakthrough, she gave RedInc a second look. With no savings, Meriam made a bold move: she loaned against her salary and invested ₱8,480.
“Everyone thought I was crazy. My mom was furious. But I told myself: they’ll understand soon.”
With no support, she turned to the digital world—mastering online marketing and reinvesting every peso. What began as a single account soon grew into 15. Her hard work paid off, and she eventually left her LGU job to pursue business full-time.
When the pandemic hit, it nearly broke her—no sales, mounting rent, and the threat of eviction. But her resilience shone through. She poured her energy into RedInc’s systems, joined their REEC program, and scaled up her digital operations. She didn’t just bounce back—she soared.
Today, she’s a top earner, Red Elite Millionaires Club member, 2x car achiever, and investor in a ₱1.5M business hub. She now owns property, farmland, and leads a growing national team.
Her story is a masterclass in calculated risk, digital hustle, and emotional grit.
“Walang imposible sa taong may pangarap at determinasyon,” she says. (Nothing is impossible for someone with dreams and determination.) – The Online Queen

Let’s explore the best autumn foliage spots in Otari Village!
Otari Village is a mountain village located in the northwesternmost part of Nagano Prefecture, on the border with Niigata Prefecture. Its highest elevation is 2,766 meters (at the summit of Mt. Ko-Renge) and its lowest is about 173 meters.
With 88% of its total area covered by forests, the autumn colors gradually make their way down from the mountaintops to the foothills, creating a changing “foliage relay” that you can enjoy throughout the season. In October, when the first snow falls on the Northern Alps, you might even be able to witness the “three-tiered foliage”—a breathtaking sight of white snow at the summit, red foliage mid-mountain, and green at the base.
Within the village’s vast 2,600-meter elevation difference, there are many spots where the autumn colors look different depending on the altitude and direction you’re facing. This means you can see a variety of colors in a single day just by visiting different places.
Enjoy the great outdoors at Tsugaike Nature Park, whether you’re alone or with others!
One of the recommended spots for autumn colors is Tsugaike Nature Park. Located in the western part of Otari Village at the foot of the Northern Alps, Tsugaike Nature Park is a highland marsh within the Chubu-Sangaku National Park. Situated at an altitude of approximately 1,900m, it is a famous nature observation area with views of the Hakuba Three Peaks and the Ushiro-Tateyama mountain range.
Every year from mid-September, the colors begin to appear in the marsh grasses, and from early to mid-October, the mountain is blanketed in a vivid contrast of fiery red nanakamado and maple trees against the yellow of Erman’s birch. On a clear autumn day, you can witness the breathtaking scene of a blue sky, white mountain peaks, and the fiery red foliage all in one view.
The well-maintained boardwalks have a gentle elevation change and some sections are even wheelchair accessible, making it safe and easy for beginners and families to enjoy. Additionally, you can access the park by using the Tsugaike Ropeway (gondola lift + ropeway), so you don’t need any special mountain climbing gear to visit.
At the peak of the autumn season, many tourists visit the park to take photos, sketch, and observe nature.
・Park Open: June 7 (Sat) – November 3 (Mon, public holiday)
(Closed from Oct 27 (Mon) to Oct 31 (Fri) due to suspension of the Tsugaike Ropeway)
・Admission Fee: Adults 320 yen, Children 260 yen
・Official Website: https://sizenen.otarimura.com/about/
<Tsugaike Ropeway> To protect the environment of Chubu-Sangaku National Park, please use the Tsugaike Ropeway to access the park.
・Fare (incl. park admission): Adults 4,000 yen, Children 2,200 yen
・Official Website: https://www.tsugaike.gr.jp/green/ropeway
The Brocade Forest Reflected on the Water. Autumn at Kamaike Pond!
Another popular autumn foliage spot in Otari Village is “Kamaike Pond.” Located in the northeastern part of the village, within the Myoko-Togakushi Renzan National Park, Kamaike Pond is a tranquil body of water at the foot of Mt. Amakazari.
Situated at an altitude of 1,190m, the 2km walking trail is surrounded by a primeval beech forest. The pond is also home to carp and trout, and on rare occasions, you can see a giant carp, referred to as the “master of the pond,” leisurely swimming.
On quiet mornings, the calm surface of the water perfectly reflects the autumn colors and mountain slopes, creating a prime photo opportunity. The sight of fog and the morning sun overlapping with the foliage is one of the reasons many photographers come from all over the country.
With a well-maintained 2km walking path, anyone can enjoy the autumn scenery. It takes about 40 minutes to walk around the entire pond, allowing you to fully appreciate the crisp autumn air.
New! Enjoy a Refreshing “Foot Bath” with Ice Water This Summer
A new spot has opened at the base of the mountain this summer. Want to cool down your tired feet after a hike? Take a dip in the new footbath (ice bath) that opened in August 2025, which uses melted snow from the Northern Alps. The cold water will leave your feet feeling refreshed and revitalized. It also doubles as a footbath in the winter, making it a great spot to visit as the seasons change.
There are also many restaurants in the surrounding area, making it a perfect spot for a break during your hike.
・Location: Gondola Lift “Eve” Base Area
・Hours: 8:00 AM – 5:00 PM
・Fee: Free
Autumn Flavors! Introducing Recommended Spots Nearby
Autumn in Otari Village isn’t just about the foliage. There are many restaurants, from places to eat before or after a hike to cafes for a short break. We’d like to introduce a popular shop that specializes in gelato made with local ingredients.
Otarian Gelato
The shop is famous for its classic “Soba Gelato,” made with buckwheat seeds, and “Sake Lees Gelato,” made with sake lees from local sake brands “Amakazariyama” and “Otarinishiki.” The rich milk gelato is also a popular favorite. Additionally, they offer seasonal gelato flavors using fruits and vegetables from Otari Village and Nagano Prefecture, such as kiwi berries, wild grapes, chestnuts, mugwort, and corn. The chance to discover a new flavor with every visit is part of its charm.

Standing at just 4’3”, Grace Ramirez had every reason to fade into the background. Orphaned by the age of 12, she became a second parent to her younger sibling while still a child herself. Her life in the province was far from easy—selling vegetables, coconuts, and even collecting scraps to survive.
“Life didn’t give me a choice,” she recalls. “I had to grow up fast.”
At 13, Grace made a brave decision. With no money and no one to rely on, she traveled to Manila alone to work as a domestic helper. She spent six years babysitting, cleaning, and working under people who often saw her as “less”—too small, too uneducated, too soft-spoken.
But inside, Grace held on to one belief: “My dreams are bigger than me. Taller than me. As tall as the Burj Khalifa.”
The turning point came when she found REDinc—a business platform that gave her something she had never experienced before: an environment without judgment. No one cared about her height or past. They cared about her heart, her effort, and her dreams.
Today, Grace is a respected leader, public speaker, and host within the organization. More than just changing her own life, she’s helping others believe they can change theirs too. She supports an 8-year-old charity for orphans and fights for OFWs to have a way to come home for good.
“I’m bound to be more & I’ll continue thrive so I can help more people…”

Coach Allen Diaz also expressed his gratitude to the company, saying, “We are very thankful to Alsons Power for their unwavering support. Because of this program, our athletes can focus on training, chase their dreams of becoming world champions, and bring pride to our nation.”
Alsons Power, in partnership with Olympic gold medalist Hidilyn Diaz, launched the Group’s weightlifting scholarship program in 2017 to support her aspiration of training Zamboanga City-based aspiring competitive weightlifters with the potential to become world-class champions. Since then, scholars from the program have consistently represented the Philippines in the global weightlifting arena and have proudly brought home medals.
The Kamustahan session underscored Alsons Power’s commitment to its brand promise We Power with Care, by empowering the youth through education and sports and supporting champions who carry the nation’s pride with every lift, medal, and victory.

Bitget, the leading cryptocurrency exchange and Web3 company, is excited to share its strategic collaboration with its trusted ecosystem project Morph, the EVM layer for payments and onchain consumer finance. The duo has signed up to boost BGB’s utility across a multitude of projects.
With this partnership, Bitget will transfer all BGB tokens that it controls, 440 million in total, to the Morph Foundation. Half of this allocation, 220 million BGB, will be burned in a single action, while the remaining 220 million BGB tokens will be locked and released at 2% per month to fund liquidity incentives, use case expansion, and education. Morph will become the native onchain home of BGB and serve as the core settlement layer for more than 120 million users worldwide, with BGB established as the gas and governance token of an improved high-performance network.
Building the Standard for Onchain Payments
The Morph chain will maintain its brand, team, and strategic direction, staying focused on its positioning as a Layer 2 dedicated to crypto payments, and striving to become the next-generation Web3 payment infrastructure, advancing beyond cost efficiency and performance toward real-world consumer finance at scale, with integrations across wallets, DeFi, stablecoins, and global payment providers.
“With this commitment to the Morph Foundation, BGB is entering a new chapter as the gas and governance token of Morph. This upgrade expands BGB into the utility token for the next era of onchain consumer finance, powering payments, applications, and the broader settlement layer for millions of users worldwide,” said Gracy Chen, CEO of Bitget.
Expanding BGB with Morph
BGB will become the primary token of Morph’s blockchain, serving as the gas, governance, and payment token across the layer. Settlement and PayFi activity will run through BGB alongside stablecoins, giving it a central role in powering the Morph network. Meanwhile, BGB will continue to collaborate with existing partners, including Bitget, MEXC, and Bitfinex, where BGB is already listed, and others beyond these exchanges, serving as a key medium for Launchpool’s new token mining, fee discounts, and more.
Moving forward, The Morph Foundation, a decentralized non-profit organisation, will be solely responsible for BGB’s long-term development roadmap, co-building the ecosystem with the community. It will also update BGB’s burn mechanism to link directly to the Morph network activity until the total supply is reduced to 100 million.
“Morph has always had a close relationship with Bitget since its founding. There are projects we have always dreamed of collaborating on, but much of our growth so far has been autonomous. Through this strategic initiative, we are excited for Morph to become the home of Bitget’s onchain initiatives and to support the millions of BGB holders around the world.” Colin Goltra, CEO of Morph, added.
Growing Decentralized Ecosystem at Scale
To support the long-term prosperity of Morph, Bitget and Bitget Wallet will bring their full infrastructures directly into Morph, consolidating payment, trading, and ecosystem services around the chain. This includes native support for stablecoin issuers, regional currencies, and global payment providers, giving developers and merchants an unmatched foundation to build decentralized payment-focused applications at scale.
Morph Rails will serve as the backbone of this expansion, powering hackathons, builder programs, and direct support for new projects. Developers building on Morph will gain access to Bitget’s and Bitget Wallet’s base of more than 120 million users, connecting their applications with one of the largest onchain audiences in the world. With Bitget’s backing, Morph is positioned to become the settlement hub for the next generation of PayFi and consumer finance.
“BGB has found its home onchain with Morph, marking a new chapter in its journey. We are thrilled to invite millions of users to experience BGB and find utility in entirely new ways. Over the next 12 months, we will see an acceleration of BGB migration onto Morph Layer and deeper partnerships between Morph and Bitget Wallet to enable seamless web3 payments and onchain consumer finance,” said Karry Cheung, CEO of Bitget Wallet.
