The 2024 Metrobank Foundation (MBFI) Outstanding Filipinos were from three key sectors: academe, military and police, who have demonstrated remarkable commitment to their fields and communities.

"To our awardees, continue to be the catalysts of change when you go back now to your communities. Challenge them to dream bigger, to aspire higher and to take action with the same fervor that you have demonstrated, especially now typhoons and storms are made stronger because of climate change and the challenges become even harder to deal with," Marcos said.

"We need more people like you - innovative, selfless and socially responsible; this is what I have always seen in Filipinos - we never get tired of helping others," he added.
