01:13 (speaking in foreign language)
01:17 I remember calling Mike and I said,
01:33 I have to tell you that I'm coming back to GMA7
01:39 and what a shame it would be if I don't let you know.
01:42 (speaking in foreign language)
01:45 Mike, I would not have forgiven you had you not called me.
01:50 He was a lovely man.
01:53 He was a wonderful, wonderful friend.

02:08 (speaking in foreign language)
02:12 It was a dream to do an interview with Mike Enriquez.
02:19 (speaking in foreign language)
02:23 But he said yes.
02:24 He said yes, he would come to the show.
02:28 (speaking in foreign language)
02:31 But he will always be in my heart
02:34 and he will always be in my mind.

07:06 (speaking in foreign language)
07:10 (speaking in foreign language)
07:14 - Joel.
07:38 (speaking in foreign language)
07:42 - I was doing my program in the afternoon, about 3.15.
07:47 So, (speaking in foreign language)
07:55 And I never got an update regarding Mike's condition
08:01 from Tita Baby.
08:02 (speaking in foreign language)
08:05 So, I immediately called back, called her back.
08:08 And (speaking in foreign language)
08:13 He expired at 3.04 p.m.
08:15 And I immediately asked her if I can visit the hospital.
08:21 (speaking in foreign language)
08:26 So, I decided to go back, to go to the hospital from GMA.
08:37 And I had the pleasure of, the honor of seeing Mike
08:42 while he is in the ICU.
08:46 (speaking in foreign language)
08:51 Thank you to Katrina, (speaking in foreign language)
08:58 And, (speaking in foreign language)
09:04 (speaking in foreign language)
09:08 - The past years were challenging for Mike.
09:11 2018, he was diagnosed with the heart and kidney ailment.
09:16 He had a bypass, I think in 2018, 2021,
09:21 he had a kidney transplant.
09:23 (speaking in foreign language)
09:25 But he was always pushing himself to work.
09:28 (speaking in foreign language)
09:33 Mike Enriquez, (speaking in foreign language)
09:38 - His dedication to work.
09:39 (speaking in foreign language)
09:43 (speaking in foreign language)
09:47 - I still have to do the newscast.
09:48 (speaking in foreign language)
09:52 We were able to convince him, don't do the newscast,
10:09 we will do it for you.
10:10 (speaking in foreign language)
10:15 (speaking in foreign language)
10:19 (speaking in foreign language)
10:23 - Susan, in terms of legacy.
10:27 (speaking in foreign language)
10:31 (speaking in foreign language)
10:35 (speaking in foreign language)
10:38 (speaking in foreign language)
10:42 - 100%, not 99.9, but 100% of what you can give to us.
10:47 (speaking in foreign language)
10:52 - But in terms of legacy, what is it for you?
11:08 (speaking in foreign language)
11:36 - He was quick to banter, he had a great sense of humor.
11:39 It was almost wry.
11:41 (speaking in foreign language)
11:43 He didn't want to be fuzzed over.
11:45 He was very private in that sense to the very end.
11:52 (speaking in foreign language)
12:06 (gentle music)
12:09 (speaking in foreign language)
12:25 - I mean, this is a rough quote,
12:33 but you cannot not love Mike.
12:38 She wrote that.
12:39 (speaking in foreign language)
12:44 In the context of lessons learned,
12:48 as a human being, as a broadcaster,
12:52 (speaking in foreign language)
13:01 (speaking in foreign language)
13:05 (speaking in foreign language)
13:09 (speaking in foreign language)
13:14 (speaking in foreign language)
13:18 (speaking in foreign language)
13:22 (speaking in foreign language)
13:26 (speaking in foreign language)
13:29 (speaking in foreign language)
13:33 (speaking in foreign language)
14:02 I will keep that in mind.
14:03 (speaking in foreign language)
14:07 (speaking in foreign language)
14:11 (speaking in foreign language)
14:15 (speaking in foreign language)
14:19 (speaking in foreign language)
14:23 (speaking in foreign language)
14:27 (speaking in foreign language)
14:31 (laughing)
14:56 (speaking in foreign language)
15:00 (speaking in foreign language)
15:06 I'm sure Susan knows this.
15:14 Mike is a difficult boss.
15:16 Perfectionist.
15:20 The slightest mistakes, a script,
15:22 and he will terrorize you.
15:24 Because he's a sucker for competency.
15:28 (speaking in foreign language)
15:33 Outside the work, Mike is a very caring friend.
15:39 I remember we got married in 2003, my wife and I.
15:45 (speaking in foreign language)
15:50 (speaking in foreign language)
15:54 After three years, we decided to (speaking in foreign language)
16:00 (speaking in foreign language)
16:04 (laughing)
16:06 (speaking in foreign language)
16:10 (laughing)
16:11 He ended up, he's a generous person.
16:14 (speaking in foreign language)
16:15 Very generous.
16:16 (speaking in foreign language)
16:18 (speaking in foreign language)
16:22 If you were to articulate,
16:39 (speaking in foreign language)
16:40 what I'm hearing is that he was very passionate,
16:43 he was a strict boss,
16:44 (speaking in foreign language)
16:48 but if you were to articulate
16:49 the most important lesson you learned from Mike
16:54 as a broadcaster,
16:58 (speaking in foreign language)
17:01 value yourself.
17:10 Value yourself.
17:11 (speaking in foreign language)
17:15 Words of wisdom.
17:16 (speaking in foreign language)
17:20 (speaking in foreign language)
17:24 (speaking in foreign language)
17:28 (speaking in foreign language)
17:32 Encourage.
17:32 (speaking in foreign language)
17:36 (speaking in foreign language)
17:40, Mike, Mike. (speaking in foreign language)
17:46 Lessons.
17:47 (speaking in foreign language)
17:51 Joel.
18:10 (speaking in foreign language)
18:13 There will never be a Mike Enriquez in the industry.
18:17 (speaking in foreign language)
18:21 And nobody can do that.
18:36 Only Mike Enriquez can do that.
18:38 (speaking in foreign language)
18:43 (speaking in foreign language)
18:47 That was Mike.
18:50 But I think the most important lesson that I'm learning now
18:54 is when you are remembered,
18:57 (speaking in foreign language)
18:58 Mike Enriquez was a good man.
19:00 He was a good man.
19:02 He was a good man.
19:03 From a professional point of view,
19:06 (speaking in foreign language)
19:08 when you talk about brand,
19:10 Mike embraced who he was.
19:12 You know, the way he delivered his newscast,
19:15 the way he lived his newscasts, his broadcast,
19:18 and he was not afraid to commit mistakes.
19:21 That was Mike Enriquez.
19:23 And he was a beautiful human being.
19:26 (speaking in foreign language)
19:30 We will always remember Mike Enriquez,
19:41 and we'll continue to talk to you every day.
19:44 Goodbye for now, and God bless.
