Wazzup Pilipinas!?
In the fast-evolving landscape of Philippine digital media, few names carry the weight of both innovation and advocacy as distinctly as Ross Flores Del Rosario. As the founder and Editor-in-Chief of Wazzup Pilipinas, Ross has transformed a digital media platform into a cornerstone of community engagement, bridging the gap between local stories and a global audience.
From Engineering Precision to Media Mastery
Born in Pasig City on October 6, 1969, Ross’s career is a testament to the power of diverse experiences. His background as an engineer, honed at the prestigious MapĂșa University, provided him with a unique analytical lens that he would later apply to the complex world of information architecture. This foundational discipline is evident in the structured, multi-faceted approach of Wazzup Pilipinas, which he developed from a simple blog into a robust multimedia organization.
His professional trajectory took him to the international stage during his tenure as an Information and Communications Technology (ICT) Officer for the United Nations. This experience instilled in him a deep-seated commitment to governance, disaster risk reduction, and the importance of clear, accessible communication—principles that remain the bedrock of his editorial mission today.
Wazzup Pilipinas: More Than a Platform
Under his leadership, Wazzup Pilipinas has become far more than a news site; it is a movement. Driven by the mission to promote the Philippines as a premier destination for business and leisure, the platform has successfully integrated print, radio, and television into a seamless digital experience.
Ross has championed Wazzup Pilipinas as a "symbol of truth, creativity, and innovation," consistently amplifying voices that might otherwise remain unheard. His work emphasizes:
Environmental Sustainability: A staunch advocate for planetary health and the circular economy, he uses his platform to push for critical legislation like the National Coastal Greenbelt Bill.
Empowering Filipino Excellence: Whether showcasing local agricultural treasures like the Bohol ube industry or highlighting the triumphs of Filipino athletes and artists, he remains an unyielding supporter of the "Filipino spirit."
Tech-Driven Journalism: A pioneer in adopting AI for media creation, Ross leverages modern tools—including drones and advanced cinematography—to capture the reality of the Philippines in stunning, high-definition detail.
A Legacy of Engagement
Beyond his editorial work, Ross is an active participant in the community. Whether he is organizing workshops for government personnel, practicing urban farming, or advocating for public infrastructure accountability, he remains deeply connected to the pulse of the nation. His journey continues to unfold, marked by an unwavering dedication to informing, inspiring, and influencing for the greater good of the Filipino people.
As he looks toward the future, Ross Flores Del Rosario remains committed to his core purpose: ensuring that every Filipino story is not just heard, but sparks the kind of conversation that shapes the nation’s future.

Ross is known as the Pambansang Blogger ng Pilipinas - An Information and Communication Technology (ICT) Professional by profession and a Social Media Evangelist by heart.
