EJ Obiena ayaw ng liquor at gambling endorsement:, bakit kaya?
NAIS maging maingat ng Filipino pole vaulter na si EJ Obiena sa mga brands na kanyang iniendorso.
Sa kanyang Instagram post nitong Martes, September 17, ibinahagi niya na gusto niyang maging maingat sa mga brands na ieendorso dahil na rin sa impluwensiyang meron siya.
Ani EJ, ang kanyang oagpili ay nakaayon sa kung ano ang kanyang prinsipyo.
“I am dragging myself to share stuff like this but it’s necessary to inform all of you that I don’t endorse gambling!!!
“I would like to reassure everyone that I pick and choose very carefully which products/brand I endorse/promote. It’s never “just about the money” but it has to be a product I can believe in; and also a product that doesn’t undermine values; and supports a healthy and thriving society,” saad ni EJ.
Kahit raw legal pa ito, naninindigan siya na dahil sa platform na mayroon siya ay alam niyang may maiimpluwensiyahan siyang mga kabataan at ang tanging nais lamang niya ay anh maging mabuting impluwensiya sa mga ito.

“The latter is why I have refused to endorse alcoholic products and/or gambling businesses. Whilst both may be legal, it is irrefutable both are regulated for a reason, and both are restricted from children. I recognise I have a platform that could influence kids and I understand and embrace this responsibility with honor and humility. I won’t hence endorse products like this,” sey pa ni EJ.
Lahad pa niya, may mga kumpanya na sumusubok na ikabit ang pangalan niya sa mga ganitong negosyo nang wala niyang pahintulot.
Babala pa niyqa, handa silang gumaa ng legal action laban sa mga ito.
Giit ni EJ, “Unfortunately, some companies will attempt to loosely link myself, my name and my image to such categories without my approval. Implying I endorse their product or their casino. I DO NOT.
“Whist my lawyers are pursuing this kind of “Guerilla” marketing legally, I wanted to in-parallel tell everyone directly I am in no way endorsing any alcohol or gambling related products. Ever. Never ever.”
