Biography
Liang is the youngest of the seven children of a low-income family.

He graduated with a BS Education degree (physics, chemistry and biology major). He is Chinese-Filipino.
Career
Liang is studying as a Pilot at APG International Aviation Academy. He started working part-time as a ramp model, until his manager discovered that Ronnie could sing and encouraged him to join singing contests. Among them was Pinoy Pop Superstar. He first rose to notoriety as the grand contender that was disqualified from the singing competition because he had a manager. Out of loyalty to his manager, he opted to leave the competition.
Liang then joined Pinoy Dream Academy and made it past the initial screening to be one of the 20 scholars to study inside the Academy. After a few months, Ronnie made it to the Honor's List of Six and ended up as PDA's second runner-up.
Liang busies himself with gigs and guestings with PDA's Top 6. However, priority goes into the recording of his album under Universal Records, which is due to be out soon. He also wishes to venture into acting but that would have to wait as his priority for this year is singing.[2]
Liang became a Department of Education endorser/spokesperson for Brigada Skuwela 2008–2010 (school brigade).
