Nilinaw ni Mikee Cojuangco na hindi lamang puro karangalan, bagkus ay marami pa umano siyang dapat matutunan bilang bagong miyembro sa International Olympic Committee (IOC) Executive Board.
Ayon sa misis ng dating basketball player na si “Dodot” Jaworski, hindi niya inasahan na mapapansin ang kanyang membership application sa itinuturing na “highest body in the international sports governing organization.”
Maasahan naman aniya sa kanya na hindi ipapahiya ang bansa sa mga makakatrabaho sa larangan ng international sports lalo’t siya ang first ever Asian woman sa IOC Executive Board.
“So, when I did become a member of the IOC, I was so prepared to work so that I could prove myself. So that I can represent the country well. Dala-dala ko pa rin ‘yung bandila ng Pilipinas. When they look at me, they still see a Filipino. On contrary also to a lot of people had presumed, it’s not me having more authority. It’s not me being in a position to bring something home to the Philippines in addition to the benefits that we are already receiving from the IOC. It’s exactly the why I am the OIC Representative to the Philippines and not the other way around,” ani Cojuangco-Jaworski.
Makakatrabaho niya si Gerardo Werthein ng Argentina.
Bilang equestrienne o babaeng bihasa sa horse riding, ang 46-year old actress ay gold medalist noong 2002 Asian Games sa South Korea at sa 2005 South East Asian Games na ginanap sa Pilipinas.
Nagkampeon naman ito sa 2011 International Equestrian Federation World Dressage Challenge.
Isa sa pinagbidahang pelikula ni Mikee o Mikaela María Antonia sa tunay na buhay ay ang “Do Re Mi.”
