SM – in whose mall Martinez learned skating – is set to organize a motorcade at the Mall of Asia on Feb. 23 at 4 p.m. which will culminate in an awarding ceremony inside the mall, SM Prime Holdings said in a press statement on Thursday.
The company, which has contributed to Martinez’ athletic pursuits, is likewise preparing “surprise” gifts for the Olympian.
"We are very proud of Michael. Not only did he give honor to our country, but he is also a shining example for the youth as someone who saw no limits to what he can achieve.

He will continue to inspire us all as he works towards earning medals in the future Olympic competitions," SM Prime Holdings president Hans Sy said. Continue reading...
