Quentin was gifted with a ‘TESORO’S” barong (www.tesoros.ph) by the National Commission of Culture and the Arts Executive Director. Cecilia Guidote-Alvarez and by the Film Development Council of the Philippines vice-Chair Christine Dayrit. . The Director was presented the 24 hour executed, custom-made barong for his courtesy call to the Philippine President Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo.
