- The first Philippine volleyball player to win a title abroad, 25 year-old Jaja Santiago, tells us about her journey playing for three seasons with the Ageo Medics in the Japan V-League.
She shares with us her struggles playing as an "OFW", her learnings from living abroad and playing on foreign land, and her response to the naturalization offer from Japan. Her mom, Alma, and sister Dindin Santiago, give their take on it as well!
Kayo, kung tatanungin kayo, PINOY ba o JAPANESE?
Pero paano naman ang BUHAY PAG-IBIG???
Here's my full conversation with the 6-foot-5 middle blocker. - Zábava
Thanks for watching and commenting!
Hello everyone! :)
Hello ate!
Let's accept the truth and painful fact that WPVT has a very long way to go, just like any other sport (like basketball) our problem is ACCURACY & CONSISTENCY.
Dami na nating mga training, pero at the end of the day its still how you execute your play. It's still ACCURACY & CONSISTENCY.
ate Gretch.❤️❤️❤️❤️...pa future naman po Myla Pablo ng NU..at Coach Roger Gorayen...tnx po.❤️❤️❤️
Wazzup lods 😎
New team na si jaja idol?
Opportunity knocks once. Jaja should grab the opportunity. She will always be a Filipino
HINDI LANG ONCE HAHAH
Correct.And might have the chance to play on olympics na di nya mararanasan dito.
I love Jaja’s humility and her sense of love towards her family and being part of the PH WVT. Jaja will have a chance to showcase her skills here in the PH and for me it is easier to achieve the dream to play for Olympics if she will grab the opportunity. While she is young and still at her peak, hope she reconsider it.
Jaja knows that she will not be a part of Japan NT even if she chose to change her nationality. She's not a shoe in player for Japan.
Jaja Santiago,
The Face of Philippine Volleyball.
#PROUD 🇵🇭
Go Jaja for the naturalization. You'll always be a Filipina by ❤️ naalala ko pa noong palakad lakad ka lang sa talipapa sa Bustillos/Earnshaw near NU 🤗
Sorry po sobrang galing ni jaja but the reality is c phenom alyssa ang face of phil volleyball para sa kaalaman mo lng okay na ba
Go Jaja for naturalization...It's a big step in your dreams to play to the Olympics..kasi kung hintayin mo pa ang chance na yan sa team ng Pinas eh suntok sa buwan yun...
For me,i want Jaja to accept the offer.its a once in a lifetime opportunity.god bless!
Grab the oppurtunity of naturalization, wag mo isipin ssbhin ng iba, priotrity mo dreams mo, at the end of the day its youre own life youre choice, the people who loves you will always support you. Go!go!go!
When you experienced a lot of losses and heartbreaks in Philippine Volleyball..even championship for her has been far-fetched but look what she had achieved now. It only proves that failures are not hindrances but preparations to success. Super fan here! Congratulations Jaja! All the best! God bless ❤️🙏
Nkaka proud si Jaja and her heart remains for the Filipino. Stay humble Jaja. We are so so proud of you. Kabayan here in Italy.😘
Jaja is Our QUEEN, a Living LEGEND and The Face of Philippine Volleyball. Love you, Ja! Thank you for raising the Philippine flag internationally.
Excuse me po c phenom alyssa ang face of phil. volleyball okay d c jaja kasunod lng cya kay alyssa fyi baka tulog ka ng ilang taon
You're an asset Ja for the PH Volleyball, pero walang mali in chasing your dreams 😉. You will always be a Filipino no matter what. be an inspiration to all Filipino athletes. Aim high & soar high! 🙋🏻♀️🇵🇭
She should grab that naturaluzation. It does not take away her being a Filipino, its just a one in a lifetime chance to play in high leagues and olympics.
Exactly. Iuwi na ng Japan yung medalya kung makakuha sila. Ang importante may isang Filipina ang nakatungtong sa pinakamataas na level ng volleyball.
Oo pero japan na ang magkakabenefit sa kanya..
Respetuhin na lang natin yung desisyon nya. Kahit nga ganyan na kataas nakamit nya, napaka underrated paren nya pagdating sa Pinas. Grabe mga bashers nya sa PVL. Especially yung ibang CMFT and CCS fans.
Grab the rare citizenship offer. She can do more for local volleyball by deeper immersion into Japanese volleyball. She does not have to give up her Japanese citizenship to be a local coach later. On the side, she will be much closer to a rare Olympic stint. If she wins any medal, we should all be proud of her. Once a Filipino, always a Filipino.
Gretchen, keep up this laid back and sincere interview style.
JAJA GO NA FOR NATURALIZATION. Ngayon ang peak mo idol, hindi ka forever na bata at malakas, at hindi lahat mbaibigyan ng ganiyang offer idol❤️ proud padin kami sayo kahit magbabago ka ng citizenship.
Jaja's humility, dedication, confidence makes her future so bright 💯❤️
Go Ja!! Grab the opportunity, go for the Japan Olympics 🙌👏💪
Well grab that oppurtunity coz once in a lifetime lng yn for every filipino volleyball player...di lahat ng mga player ay dumarating ang oppurtunity n yn...stay safe and be an inspiration to every filipino...
Yan ang natutunan ko sa Japan before napaka professional talaga nila at makita talga nila na may talent ka kukunin ka nila kahit ano pa lahi mo.
If that will make her happy and kung saan siya magiging successful, definitely filipinos will surely support her. She already won filipinos heart and we should be proud of her. Go with the flow kung anong meron opportunity ngayon, lalo na wla na tayong kasiguradohan sa pandemic and yet there is still opportunity with volleyball outside. why not. Give it a shot.
We are all proud of you, JAJA! Kahit ano pa man maging decision mo! ❤️
And she's back! 🎉🎉🎉
Yay! More inspiring content to come!
Super down to earth... Keep it up ur an inspiration to every Filipino to do their best in representing our country in whatever it is... Ur an idol
Grab the offer and opportunity lady. That is only once in a lifetime to play and compete internationally.
We are proud of you.
congrats ms. jaja. i love how brave and straightforward you are. thank you for this informative and fun content ms. gretchen ho 😍
Why am I not subscribing Getchen? This is a gem.
"If a window of opportunity appears, don't pull down the shade." Go Jaja.Just do it! 😁
Jaja has pure and good intentions for the PH volleyball. Great opportunities like this don't come before a lucky person but these opportunities come to deserving persons like Jaja and other PH volleyball personalities as well. The image of PH volleyball really has changed to the better since these players (Valdez, Santiago, Espejo, Bagunas) have staged the volleyball court to a different level. All Filipinos shall give an ALL OUT SUPPORT as they give back with their dedication and hardships.
I think Jaja should grab the offer for Japanese naturalization. Her dream to be able to play in the Olympics will materialize if she chooses to avail of this Japanese naturalization. KEEP DREAMING!👏👍💕
Go for it jaja!.olympics na yan at japan pa. Kudos ms gretchen mvp ka rin ng pinay volleyball😀😀pete c.
Go jaja, congrats
GO JaJa! GRAB IT! it's for your future!
Proud pinoy here!
Para sa kin, sana tanggapin ni Jaja yung offer. She deserves it na matupad dreams nya lalo na makalaro for olympics. She will always be a Filipino and we will always be proud of her dedication and passion of volleyball. Good luck idol Jaja in all of your endeavors.
I enjoy the way she speaks. She truly exemplifies humility and being humble as a person. A truly blessed woman. Gretchen is a great person, however we haven't met her. Continue your wonderful effort for both of you. Kudos!
Welcome back to the youtube world again ate Gretchen❤️sana tuloy tuloy lang ang vlog❤️❤️❤️
You said it right Gretchen....abot kamay na ni Jaja yung better future and dreams nya. Wala pa tayo sa ganung level na the country really takes care of its athletes and their family. similar dillema maybe with Wesley So who opted to play chess for the US.
Waaah, kilig! Abangan ko mga next videos mo ate! 💙
I love her honestly, especially on her lovelife hindi niya hinahide mukhang proud pa siya. Well mahirap talaga yung decision niyang gagawin maraming isasakripisyo family, love and loyalty pero ang kapalit ay matutupad yung dreams niya! Whatever your decision, always know na we will support you and will continue to cheer for you!
Teh Gretch , nice interview with her, I am a fan of yours and hers.
más may future Siya dun sa Japan🇯🇵 naku naman on going at consistent ang sports program ng Japan sa lahat ng sports not Just Volleyball. untiring ang selfless yun.
Congrats Jaja it's your right to choose what's best for you, great reward for all your hard work.
Philippine pride pa rin naman Siya. 💕❤️Loveyah both
Always stay safe.
Once in a lifetime opportunity. Go, Jaja!🏐

Solid fan of yours po! 😘

We are proud you Jaja. Ayuz, Panalo❤️👌🙌🙏☝️😊
Thanks for this interview.
Go jajja take mu n opportunity so proud of you tas makita k namin s jpan team s Olympics keep it up ja
go jaja. ....go for olympics habang young
So she mentioned OLYMPICS meaning na scout na sya ng team A ng national team ng japan. If she did get naturalized she probably will have a higher chance to actually be in the team in my opinion cuz that’s what I feel their national team is actually lacking as far as the position goes. I honestly say grab it. Sobrang potential.
Kukunin agad si Jaja for sure because Japan needs size.
possibility pa lang naman sinabi niya. looking at her skills as MB, she's still too slow for an MB for a fast team like Japan.
@@mirieshii1948 i think if she stays in Japan and continue her training there, she will def improve and will have a higher chance of participating in the next olympics. may 3 years pa naman. surely mag iimprove sya
@@mushroompenguin549 it's not just Jaja as a player, really. It's more on the very closed tradition of Japan. They have this intense pride just for being Japanese and their Volleyball national players are only 100% Japanese. wala pang half half sa mga yan na mainstay sa NT. that's the biggest obstacle for Jaja to be able to join the NT.
@@mirieshii1948 im not too familiar with Japan and their system in choosing players so thanks for sharing this. looks like Jaja will really have to make a name for herself in Japan to become part of their NT. but still, her chances of going to the olympics is less impossible in Japan than in the Philippines. i Just dont see our national team come close to qualifying. we barely qualify even in international competitions.
Congrats Jaja.

Gretchen Ho,
Thanks
Hi! Miss Gretchen, isa k s mga idol ko s ateneo, solid ateneo ako dahil dyn ng aral ang beloved niece ko. Meron nga pla taung picture nung nglaro k s psl s petron, bday ko nun kya napakasaya ng bday present mo s akin ang mgkaroon ng picture ksama ka. Sayang nga lng d kn tumuloy mglaro ng volleyball, pero maganda nman ang napili mong bagong career s TV dahil lalo kng gumanda. Pra s akin pareho tau proud Pinoy, at sna wag ng mgpa- naturalize c Jaja kc kailangan cya ng national team natin at marami ng mga bata ng matataas n player n pwde nyang mkasama s team at pra maiangat ang volleyball s ating bansa at ma kilala n tau s buong mundo at mkapunta din s Olympics. Isa p ngkakaisa n ang volleyball stakeholders ngyon at wla ng competition at politika kya pwde n taung umangat, my proper training lng at kumuha tau ng mga imported n trainer s Europe, US o s Brazil pra tulad ng gilas nandyan c Tab Baldwin. Gusto ko ng mapanood c Jaja n suot ang Jersey ng Pilipinas at kya nating tapatan ang Thailand tulad ng men's team natin muntik ng makuha ang gold nung asean games, pero kung nglaro sna noon cna Jaja at Dindin malamang mgka medal tau, pero dahil di cla pinayagan ng ball club nila kya sayang, pero ngyong asean games sna mkasama n cla s national team. Good luck sau idol, always stay beautiful outside especially inside. Stay safe and God bless you! Oo nga pla, kc noong ngpakuha ako ng picture sau, sbi nung iba d daw ako mkakakuha ng picture sau dahil mataray k raw, pero sbi ko makikita natin yan kung talagang mataray kau, kya mgpapakuha ako ng picture sau, e pumayag k, kya sbi ko mali kau ng impression ky Miss Gretchen Ho, mabait cya at d mataray, kya pinag malaki ko s knila ang picture natin, sna s susunod mgpa picture ulit sau, kya lng my pandemic, 61 yrs old n kc ako, kya bawal lumabas ng haus ang senior. Cge po napahaba n ang comment ko masaya lng kc ako dahil meron kng program n ganito, ng subscribes n ako pra palagi ktang mapanood. See you nxt time.
Nice interview with ate Jaja 😍💙 Pride of the Philippines. 🇵🇭💜 Sana po next GAWONG nman 😊😘✌️
Kahit naturalize Japanese ka , you can still go back sa pinas once in a while to help local volleyball. You can share your observations re how Japanese manage their volleyball teams. Go for that once in a lifetime opportunity. Dont mind those salty comments. Go go JaJa
If I were jaja I will grab the opportunity kc parang hindi natin tlga pa kaya makapasok sa olympics. Kaya go go jaja for Olympics minsan Lang Lang darating yan while you were young and able.
go for jaoan n jaja walang wenta dito sa atin puro pulitika lang sayang ang offer GOGOGO SUPPORTTTT❤️❤️❤️❤️
To be honest ate gretchen. Low percent lang talaga ang pilipinas na makakatongtong sa mga mas prestigious na liga. Kaya mas maganda kung maglalaro si jaja sa mas maayos na sistema ng japan. Pwede naman nya tulungan ang pilipinas in the future eh. Balik sya dito tapos e apply yung mga matututunan nya sa japan. .
@@romeoorio498 sa lagay ng programa natin as of now, dapat muna maging praktikal
I hope when you grab the opportunity to be naturalize sana pipilian ka as part of the 12 players in Japan’s volleyball Olympic team.
Thank you for featuring my idol jaja
Ay! buti nakita ko itong vlog Ms.Gretch❤️❤️❤️
Nakasabay ko date sa elevator si Jaja sa condo sa Breeze ang tangkad saka ang laki ng kamay. Iba yung dating sa personal petmalu. Mabuhay mga atletang noypi sa loob at labas ng bansa 😎
Wow nakaka inspired ang bola at pagiging sports lovers...jaja wag mag babago...
love the santiago sisters eversince i've seen them.... i love philippine volleyball
If I we’re Jaja and given that opportunity I will grab it.b’coz it will help me to improve my skills in volleyball and can be pass it on to other Filipino player.congrats Jaja
Hi Jaja. Elated hearing you levelling up your Volleyball talent. Shock too about your lovelife! Congratz.
I will accept it. Its not just for me but also for OUR COUNTRY!!
My idol and my inspiration since elementary, keep doing good Jajing Love u❤️
Congratulations LODI Ms. Jaja Santiago.keep it up and more power 💪🎖️🎖️🎖️🎖️.
Sad as it might be, Jaja should grab this opportunity to achieve her dream of playing in the Olympics given that the Philippines is still not quite there to offer her that same chance. Go girl! And good luck.
grab na, there are many ways she can contribute to ph while playing for Japan like coaching, staff, management etc. ❤
I'm sure the entire country will be cheering her on if she plays for Japan in the Olympics, she will always be a Filipino
this deserves more views
Ang comment ko sa video na ay only for Gretchen. Kasi ang Ganda Ganda PA rin ni Gretchen. Hindi ako magsasawa tingnan sya kahit noong nsa abs sya. I love you Gretchen. More & more blessings to come & God will always bless & protect you kahit nassaan ka man.

GO JAJA...GRAB THE OPPORTUNITY.. GOOOOOO...BETTER FUTURE!!!
magiging malaking kawalan si Ms.jaja santiago sa Philippine team if she would be naturalized sa japan po and siguro malayo pa ang pilipinas sa olympic and but I believe walang imposible makakarating ang pilipinas don with the help po ni Ms.jaja and other players,passion and dedication po ng national team siguradong maabot in Gods time.
Congrats Jaja... Grab mo n naturalization... 1st pinoy... Tpos Olympics is on the way 👍👌🙏

Happy Birthday Gretchen!
Jaja, grab it!
Hi, Gretchen Ho! Vico Sotto interview naman jan..
Grab it Jaja! Olympics na yah oh!
Congratulations Ja! Go for your dreams! One way to reach your goals to be able to play in the Olympics is to accept the Japanese naturalization. She will achieve more success in life with Japanese exposure in terms of her vollyball profession. Now is the best time as she just garnered an international recognition, winning in a Japanese league--sole Filipino athlete and MVP too. We, Filipinos, are so proud of you, Japa!
Correction: JAJA not Japa.
Hi Ms Beautiful Grechen! Keep Safe. GodBless!
Love it 💯❤
She should take the opportunity. We will always support her.
Congratulations jaja stay humble idol
