Even after a hard day’s night, as the Beatles’ song goes, you wake up early—very early—morning to get the chance to play tennis with some foreign ambassadors.
British Ambassador Asif Ahmad goes the extra mile to connect with people. Before he came to Manila, he studied the language with a Filipino teacher in London and watched some local films.
