Trudeau gives high-five |
Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau is the Filipinos’ favorite foreign-dignitary visitor.
The head of state is so
loved by the Filipinos. In fact, anything that he’s in goes viral.
Right after his arrival
in Manila yesterday to attend the Asean Summit, the amiable and endearingly
goodlooking head of state made a quick stop-over at Jollibee in North Harbor, Tondo,
Manila.
He ordered his
Chickenjoy with rice and Strawberry Tea Float, mingled with the crew and
customers, going from table to table—and sharing the fries of some guests as he
table-hopped.

In truth, it was
Trudeau himself who “personally requested” the visit, according to Francis
Flores, Jollibee Global Brand Chief Marketing Officer. “We were just advised a
few days ago. He really loves Jollibee and knows how much Filipinos love it. He
also went to our first Jollibee store in Canada last February, and he knows we
are opening more stores in Canada.”

Flores described Trudeau’s memorable visit at Jollibee’s Tondo: “He’s such a charismatic and sincere person. You will not feel intimidated by his presence. He went around the store, table-hopping to talk and sit down with the guests. He loved the fries and shared some with the guests.
“In a brief chat with
Jollibee executives, he said he visited our first store in Canada in Winnipeg
last February,” Flores said.
Trudeau said, “I heard
you’re expanding in Canada.”
Trudeau wasn’t able to
finish his meal so he left the store with a take-out. He was photographed with
the take-out as he headed to his car, waving at the crowd.
