MANILA -- Actor Daniel Padilla is still a Kapamilya as he signed on Monday, February 12, another contract with ABS-CBN, his home for 15 years. 

Present during the contract signing were ABS-CBN president and CEO Carlo Katigbak, chairman Mark Lopez, COO for Broadcast Cory Vidanes, CFO Rick Tan, and Star Magic head Laurenti Dyogi. 

Padilla's manager Luz Bagalacsa and co-manager and mother Karla Estrada were also present.

"Unang-una gusto ko po magpasalamat sa aking mga bosses sa tiwala po na ibinibigay niyo. At hindi lang po tiwala para sa trabaho, kung hindi sa totoong pagmamahal na ibinibigay niyo. Maraming, maraming salamat," Padilla said. 

After the contract signing, the ABS-CBN executives thanked Padilla for fulfilling his words to remain a Kapamilya.

"When we lost our franchise, may tinext ka sa akin, 'Salamat po sa inyong pakikipaglaban. Nagawa niyo na po ang lahat. Ngayon ang Diyos na po ang bahala.' So Deej, ibabalik ko sa iyo ang message mo sa akin. Masipag kang tao, isang artistang magaling at isang anak na nagmamahal sa kanyang pamilya. Gawin mo ang lahat to be best version of you and then Diyos na ang bahala. I'm sure you will achieve bigger and better successes and you will become what God has destined you to be. Maraming salamat sa pagmamahal mo sa amin sa pamilya mo rito sa ABS-CBN. We are grateful that you continue to be our Kapamilya and I want you to know that ABS-CBN will also be here for you always, no matter what," Katigbak assured Padilla.

Padilla has proven his supremacy in acting, music, concert, sports, endorsements and love from fans.

Asked of his secret when it comes to success in his career, Padilla said: "Well isa lang naman, being true to yourself. 'Yun lang naman ang ino-offer ko simula nang magsimula ako sa industriya na ito -- just me being myself na ipinapakita ko sa tao, hinding-hindi nagbago 'yon. At siyempre sa trabaho, dedication, 'yung dedication mo rin sa mga mga tao na manonood noon. Pagdating sa musika 'yun mga makikinig sa music na 'yon."

Padilla also did not forget to thank his loyal fans. 

"I am just very truly grateful sa tiwala at pagmamahal. Sa mga fans wala na akong hihilingin pa just thankful to you," Padilla said.

"I get random messages kasama ang positive, negative messages magkakasama 'yan and I truly appreciate that it makes me human. So thank you very much. 'Yung mga mensahe niyo ay masakit man -- totoo. At 'yung iba nagbibigay ng positive messages, ang sarap sa puso kung alam niyo lang. Ang dami ko ring natutunan sa inyo. I thought 'yung experiences ko sa buhay ay marami na pero talagang hindi natatapos ang learning. Experiences in life it brings you down, it brings you back up, ganun talaga ang buhay. Kailangan natin tanggapin na may mga pangyayari na hindi mansang-ayon sa atin, o hindi man natin gusto pero it was bound to happen, ganun talaga. I think planado ng Diyos ang lahat ng bagay hindi ba at sa kanya ko na lang ibinibigay lahat," Padilla said.

Right now, Padilla said that aside from his work, he wants to spend more time with his family and friends.

"I want to enjoy life. 'Yun muna ang focus ko work and family," he said.
