What made Mr. Alexander A. Daligdigโs winning performance in the Talentadong TESDAn Competition truly meaningful is that the story he portrayed is also a story he knows by heart.
During his radio guesting at DYMR Radyo Pilipinas Cebu, CTU-Main Campus, with Ms. Sheila Gravinez, Xander shared the personal journey that inspired his performance as the Grand Winner representing TESDA Region VII.
His love for singing persuaded him to join the competition, which became his first-ever competition. But beyond his talent, Xander brought to the stage a story rooted in his own experiences.
Coming from the Dinagat Islands, Xander experienced firsthand the realities of limited opportunities and financial challenges. With not enough resources for his family, he pursued the TVL Track in Senior High School and earned his NC II. He continued his education and became a Bachelor of Secondary Education graduate, major in Technology and Livelihood Education, specializing in Food Services Management.
From the Dinagat Islands, he came to Cebu in search of employment and eventually found an opportunity to work with TESDA.
His journey allowed him to deeply connect with the character and story portrayed in his winning piece. He, too, experienced working through challenges, including fishing and farming in his province. These experiences taught him that hardships may test a person, but they do not have to stop them from moving forward.
As the only college graduate in their family, Xander shared how poverty shaped his determination. For him, there is always a way and there is always hope. When worries and homesickness arise, he reminds himself to trust in the Lord, believe in his abilities, and keep going.
And in his own journey, he found one of those pathways to hope through TESDA.
