"Sing for yourself and the world will listen to you."
Mr. Jim Paredes (or Jaime Ramon Paredes) is a popular Filipino musician, producer, writer, photographer, television personality, workshop facilitator and activist best known for being one-third of the popular Filipino band, the APO Hiking Society. He graduated with a degree in Bachelor of Arts in Communication from the Ateneo De Manila University, and continues to share his several talents to the nation. Although Mr. Paredes has produced several memorable works for our country, he is famously known for his song "Handog Ng Pilipino Sa Mundo" which became the theme song of the 1986 People Power Revolution. As evidently seen in the EDSA Revolution, this man is a firm believer that every Filipino must remain strong amidst the issues that our country faces. Currently, Mr. Paredes appears in various television shows, produces music, facilitates workshops, writes books and newspaper columns in the Philippine Star to continue to spread his advocacies for our beloved country.
