When he was offered the position, Christian admitted that he initially had doubts but then realized how much he could contribution to help the music industry. “It’s not an easy job but I’m up to the task. Na-challenge ako sa sarili ko na bata ako meron akong mako-contribute and I believe na mas magkakaroon ng voice ‘yung ibang singers or banda para magkaroon talaga ng united OPM.” The singer is also confident that his hectic schedule and number of shows abroad won’t prevent him from doing his job properly and cited that modern technology can easily make communication easier and faster. “Lahat naman may out-of-the country [shows] pero mas posible na [to communicate] in this generation may Internet, may Skype, on the web pwede kayong mag-usap,” he assured.
