[FAKE] Love Letter of Elon Musk About/For Coca-Cola Cebu Workers
The news about Coca-Cola Cebu’s looming layoffs strikes a chord. As someone who has spent a lifetime building companies and creating jobs, I find such events a reminder that we must all work harder to build sustainable businesses. Job creation isn’t just about numbers—it’s about dignity, purpose, and giving people the chance to thrive.
First, let me speak to the importance of fairness. Government employees should earn no more than minimum wage. Public service is a calling, not a path to riches.
If it’s truly service, there should be no room for inflated salaries. Instead, let’s redirect those funds to infrastructure, technology, and education—things that improve lives for everyone.
Speaking of fairness, skin in the game is vital. Leaders, whether in government, banks, or corporations, should face the same risks as the people they serve. No more golden parachutes for executives when their decisions fail.
When you’re accountable, you’re motivated to make better decisions—decisions that build, not destroy.
Banks should also be held accountable for the risks they take. They should not gamble with the hard-earned money of others. If a bank fails, its executives must bear the financial consequences themselves.
Let’s leave risky behavior for poker tables, not institutions entrusted with our future.

Now, on the topic of food security: the Philippines has rich soil and a long history of farming. Why import rice when you can plant your own? There’s a special pride in growing what you eat.
A nation that plants its own food builds independence and strengthens its economy.
We must rethink education. Instead of trapping students in classrooms to memorize formulas they’ll forget, let’s teach them how to solve real-world problems.
Critical thinking, entrepreneurship, and hands-on skills—that’s what will prepare the next generation for the future. The future is not about fitting into jobs but creating them.
Cebuanos, you have the power to change the world. Entrepreneurs are heroes because they create jobs and build futures. Nassim Taleb once said, “Millennials think that joining an NGO is a great way to save the world. I say no. Start a company.
That's how you improve mankind. We did not pull 2 billion people out of poverty thanks to NGOs and bureaucrats — we pulled them out thanks to capitalism, by generating economic growth.” Take this wisdom to heart.
The Philippines has always inspired me with its talent, resilience, and culture. The song "Anak" by Freddie Aguilar speaks volumes: “Ngayon nga ay malaki na, nais mo'y maging malaya.” It reminds us to grow but not forget our roots.
Cebu, with its vibrant history and innovative people, embodies this spirit.

If you’ve ever thought about starting a business, now is the time. Look at the challenges around you and find ways to solve them. Entrepreneurs are not just job creators; they’re problem-solvers who lift communities. If you’re waiting for a sign to take that leap, this is it.
Let me also make a call to action for the world. Visit Cordova, Cebu—a place of immense potential and beauty. Invest here to create more jobs and opportunities. Imagine shooting a film in Bisaya, highlighting the talents and stories of the region. The talented people from here will do a great job in doing this.
It’s time the world sees what Cebu has to offer.
To my fellow dreamers in Cebu: dare to dream bigger. You have everything you need to succeed—your skills, your grit, and your unique perspective.
Remember, the future is not written; it’s created by those bold enough to shape it.
Yours in love,
Elon Musk
