PBB housemates open RM Building By Neil C. Rio
PINOY Big Brother housemates Raquel, Bob De la Cruz, and Rico Barrera graced the opening late Tuesday afternoon of Dumaguete City's newest commercial building at the corner of north national highway and Rovira Road.
The commercial center, RM Building, is owned by lawyer Raymund J. A. Mercado and wife Malou.
Hundreds of fans of the three PBB celebrities jam-packed the site and snarled traffic to see their favorite housemates.
A big affair, the blessing and inauguration was attended by city and provincial officials led by Mayor Agustin Perdices and Governor George Arnaiz who had their time talking with the reality television stars of ABS-CBN.
