Rev. Arlo Yap is a radio personality, specifically in Radio Veritas, is an international speaker, being invited by several parties to give speeches, talks, and the same, regarding relationship between people (i.e. healing broken relationships, dealing with them, and how to prevent them, or at least, to lessen.) He is known to have a very nice and friendly voice, live or on air. He has the capability to mingle his thoughts to the thoughts of his audience, making him very comprehensible and gentle. He manages not to sound cheesy or boring, even though he is speaking of religion and good conduct, by asking his listeners to move, not ordering them. Not only with the jokes in- between does he make his talk alive, but by the thought which comes out of his mouth in a lively way. He doesn't have to ask his audience to listen. Instead, the audience tend to keep quiet and pay attention. In this way, he gives his contribution to the community, being a modern priest, which gives him this image of a credible speaker.
When I was listening to him, I can not help but look around and see that the whole gymnasium was with him. He got in touch with the crowd, specially the senior students, who I think was in some way moved in his certain stories of the people he managed to mend the lives of. It was one of the times that I can't believe my eyes, seeing my classmates listening to such talk from such speaker. The priest has confidence and an air of modern speaking that I do not find in weekly sermons from the chapel. He knew his limits in talking, doing a good job in fencing what he was supposed to tell and which were not, supposedly implied. And that was what I think what a good speaker should possess: the ability to make his implied thoughts delivered clear to the audience. Therefore, the audience become a little changed after listening to him, reacting to the lessons they got from a talk.
