MANILA: In a world where the odds are stacked against the Philippine passport, Kach Umandap has carved a path of possibility, proving that borders can be crossed with courage and determination.

At just 36 years old, the San Pablo City, Laguna native became the first and youngest Filipino to travel to all 193 United Nations (UN)-recognised countries and two observer states, using only a Philippine passport—a feat that highlights not just her personal achievements, but also her advocacy for fellow Filipinos.
