How Can a 2nd 'Poorest' Senator Afford a Balesin Wedding?

The lavish wedding of Senator Chiz Escudero and actress Heart Evangelista raises some questions about propriety

It may as well be the wedding of the year – the nuptials between showbiz princess Heart Evangelista and one-time presidential aspirant Senator Francis “Chiz” Escudero. Theirs is a love matched in heaven, witnessed and graced by movers and shakers in politics, business, media, and showbiz.

Their union defied a Shakespearean tragedy. An earlier marriage in 1999 which produced a twin for him crumbled, and in 2012, that union was annulled. For her part, she has had her share of heartbreaks, compounded by overly protective parents.

Like her past relationships, the parents were against her latest inamorata. After all, there's a 15-16 year gap between them. She's just 30; he's turning 46 this year. Despite her age, her parents say their daughter is still immature and “thinks like a young girl.”

Escudero, they believe, is just manipulating their daughter “into going against the family.” But Heart declared her emancipation and this time, listened to well, her heart.

On February 15 this year, they exchanged “I dos” in the exclusive, private, members-only Balesin resort in Quezon province.

Star-studded

Like any ceremony befitting royalty, Evangelista and Escudero’s wedding was a marriage of politics and business, with the added glitter of showbiz. Easily, it could be the grandest matrimonial event of the year.

The principal sponsors say it all. Some of the high-profile corporate personalities were basically lifted from Forbes’ list of richest Filipinos, led by Hans Sy, scion of business tycoon Henry Sy of the SM group of companies. The A-list sponsors included Ramon Ang, president and CEO of San Miguel Corporation, Fernando Zobel of Ayala Corporation, Andrew Tan of Megaworld Corporation, Lance Gokongwei of Robinson’s Corporation, Cebu Pacific and JG Summit, and Bobby Ongpin of Alphaland. Property developer Jerry Acuzar of New San Jose Builders was also part of this elite list.

From the media side, ABS-CBN head Gabby Lopez (who was represented by younger brother Ernie Lopez of ABS-CBN Publishing), Kapuso network head Felipe Gozon and GMA 7 executives Gilbert Duavit and Lilybeth Rasonable, and TV anchor Mel Tiangco also stood as principal sponsors.

From politics, the principal sponsors included General Santos City Mayor Adelbert W. Antonino, former Rizal district Representative Gilberto Duavit, Isabela Governor Faustino Dy Jr, and Mayor Esther Hamor of Sorsogon.

From the world of showbiz, Viva Entertainment chairman Vicente del Rosario, actress-director-scriptwriter Bibeth Siguion-Reyna, Susan Roces, and Jackie Lou Blanco joined in. And let’s not forget President Benigno Aquino III, who was tapped as the best man in absentia.

2nd reception

Widely covered by the media, the wedding qualifies for a fairy tale. Photos posted on Instagram and other social media outlets showed a dreamy reception ambiance, with all the hallmarks of expensive elegance.

The bride’s wedding gown was inspired by Grace Kelly, designed by Dubai-based fashion designer Ezra Santos. The groom’s suit was by renowned fashion designer Paul Cabral.

A second gown, which Evangelista wore at the Manila reception for friends and colleagues who were not on the Balesin guest list, was designed by US-based Monique Lhuillier.

Held at The Blue Leaf Filipinas in Parañaque, the second reception was attended by more than a thousand invitees, based on reports.

By any measure, the Escudero-Evangelista nuptial was anything but simple.

And this is where Escudero, the lawmaker, may have failed the standard.

Conflict of interest

Already, tapping biggies in the corporate world as principal sponsors has raised the eyebrows of some purists who think that Escudero crossed the thin ethical line between public service and private interests.

As senator, Escudero, who is a member of the powerful Blue Ribbon committee, participates in Senate hearings and probes that range from public fund misuse to bad corporate practices of companies engaged in government contracts.

For instance, in the Senate probe on the alleged hidden wealth of the Binay family, officials of Hilmarc’s Construction, which was behind several big-ticket projects in Makati, were summoned to the hearings to explain the company's side.

A more recent case was Ongpin, who was summoned to explain the alleged anomalous joint venture agreement involving a property of the Boy Scouts of the Philippines.

At the very least, by naming them as wedding sponsors, Escudero would have to recuse himself from participating in any probe that may involve any of his principal sponsors.

Escudero was seen at the Senate hearing on the Boy Scouts-Alphaland controversy on Wednesday, February 18, where Ongpin was among the resource persons, but he didn't participate in it.

He arrived in the afternoon – the hearing began late morning – but left quickly and did not ask any questions. The hearing was held just days after his wedding in Balesin where Ongpin was among the primary sponsors. The businessman also owns the resort.

Escudero will also have to inhibit from any Senate probe involving competitors of his wedding sponsors to insulate himself from allegations of conflict of interest. Somehow, through this, he has defanged himself as a public servant doing public service for public good.

Code of conduct

While Escudero’s public role and private decisions can be debated upon, what’s clear under the Code of Conduct and Ethical Standards for Public Officials and Employees or RA 6713 is that public servants “and their families shall lead modest and simple lives appropriate to their positions and income.” They are also supposed “to not indulge in extravagant or ostentatious display of wealth in any form.”

As a rule, public officials are required to maintain “a standard of living within the public official and employee’s visible means of income as correctly disclosed in his income tax returns, annual statement of assets, liabilities and net worth (SALN) and other documents relating to financial and business interests and connections.”

Question is: was the wedding itself within Escudero’s “visible means of income?” Does it measure up to the modest and simple lifestyle invoked by the law?

Did the newly-wed couple observe tradition of the groom shouldering much of the expense or were they egalitarian in sharing the tab? How much of their personal money did they shell out?

While not exactly filthy rich or dirt poor by an ordinary man’s standard, Escudero is not exactly wallowing in wealth.

SALNs

In fact, only two years ago, he was considered the "poorest" senator with a total declared net worth of P4.017 million.

From 2007 to 2011, when his marriage to Christine Elizabeth Flores was not yet annulled, Escudero’s net worth ranged between P7.4 million to P9.867 million. Between those years, his cash on hand and in banks hovered between P1.2 million to P3.7 million, with the rest of his net worth in real and personal properties.

In 2012, after the couple’s split was made official, Escudero’s net worth dipped from P9.867 million to P4.017 million, displacing Senator Antonio Trillanes IV who had been the perennial "poorest" senator. His cash on hand also went south with only P900,000.

The sharp decrease in his net worth can be attributed to the court-ordered transfer of the former couple’s two residential condominiums to their two children.

In his latest 2013 SALN declaration, Escudero’s net worth jumped to P8.243 million, on the strength of properties – 5 residential and one – he acquired by “succession.” (Escudero’s father, former Agriculture Secretary and Sorsogon First District Representative Salvador Escudero died in 2012). His cash on hand also rose to P3.183 million.

Still, he remains the second "poorest" senator, behind Trillanes.

No official figure has been given on how much was spent for the grand Escudero-Evangelista nuptial. Given that public officials have still until April 30 to file their 2014 SALNs, it would be interesting to find out how the lavish wedding was pulled off based on the senator's net worth.

Specifically, it will at least provide a glimpse of his liquidity status just before the wedding.

Still, any SALN adjustment resulting from his new married status will only be reflected next year, in 2016, since the cut-off period for SALN declaration is December 31.

This means Escudero’s 2015 SALN will have to wait until April 30, 2016. And in the space provided for spouse, he will now have a name to fill it.

    7. GMA event ito ergo konti lang gastos. The couple have a PAID contract with GMA for the rights to air the wedding as a special on the network. GMA also paid them for the exclusivity of coverage. You can ask other networks, online and print media if they were able to shoot a video or took a photo with consent. It's the same with the Dingdong -Marian wedding. Do you really think Dingdong spent a big chunck of his personal earnings for their wedding? This is more of a showbiz event than a politcal one. Networks spent for them as they get bigger income from advertisements during the airing of the special and high ratings.

    8. The principal sponsors are not ordinary people and the guests too most likely gave if not wedding registry gifts, gave cash gifts. I know 3 couples who had grand weddings in Shangrila Boracay and at first they loaned money from the bank and charge some to their credit card in order to spend for their wedding but because they have generous and big time principal sponsors they got all their expenses 100% back and still made savings to put in the bank. Balesin was offered to Escudero and evangelista by the owner and let's say the gifts from sponsors 1,2,3,4,5,6 covered for the cost of Balesin, catering, chartered planes, flowers, and other logistics. Manila reception most likely will or was paid using the gift from sponsors 7,8,9. Sorsogon reception by Chiz family as a gift. With the big time sponsors there still might be left over cash gifts. Not to forget, the TV network pays or sponsors celebrity weddings too for which after will air as special. Anyway, I think there are just people itching to ignite rage and anger or pass hate at this point to the newly wed couple because some people are so much into crab mentality.

    14. Juskopo Rudy, wag na tayong magpanggap, please. Marriage to a celebrity by a politician raises public appeal, widens networks, and increases campaign funds.

      Please lang! Utang na loob. Siguro may love na kung may love, pero wag tayong paka-innocente, paka-mangmang. Mag-aminan na tayo.

      Pag nagstay-at-home wife si Heart, o kung hindi na tumakbo si Chiz, saka tayo maniwala na talagang wala ng ibang dahilan ang kasalang ito. Otherwise, tanggapin na natin na intensyon man nila o hindi, eh gugwapo lalo si Chiz sa taumbayan dahil kay Heart.

      End of story. Itigil na ang paulit-ulit na pagsesensationalize sa mga ito. Kung wagas ang pagmamahalan nila at walang malisya, gugustuhin din nilang magshut-up tayo.

Andun sa kangkungan, a few notches above bankruptcy. Kung alta yan, aba'y bat nakatira ang mga magulang sa condo ng anak nila? Asan ang classy mansion or villa nila, aber?!? And last time I checked, 2nd family yang si Hack, wag siyang magmataas dyan! At ito namang si Chiz, baka nga mayaman siya... sa probinsya nila. 4M SALN is a lot sa probinsya, pero sa Manila? 150sqm house and lot lang yan! Look it up! Aminin, hocus pocus naman talaga! Dapat yan umalis sa Blue Ribbon, konting delikadesa naman! Kapal ng mukha! Nakakainit ng ulo, asan na ang goodie bag ng mga taxpayers na tulad ko!?

SANAY SI CHIZ KUMUHA NG GUESTS SA KASAL NIYA SA UNA AT PANGALAWA NA HINDI NIYA KA-CLOSE. In short, pabango at financer lang! Ex deal naman ngayon? Hahahaha ate.. Ang ex deal MAY KAPALIT.

    4. How are you suren naman na it is from kurakot nga 3:13? Speculation lang nga lahat pero kung hater ka, gusto mo manilwala na kurakot. Pag fan ka, sure ka na hindi.

      Pero pag di ka fn or hater, mas makakaisip ka ng derecho. Article was poorly written though, topic aside. Sino ba writer ng Rappler, parang tabloid pagkasulat ng article na to. Sana better writer kasi serious yung allegation.

    1. sus ginoo kau di nyo ba alam kung ano ibig sabihin ng "hands on"? Ibig sabihin Escudering himself was actively involved in coordinating and managing the implementation of the wedding plans as in he acted as the wedding planner. Yun yun ang ibig sabihin ni Hack.

  15. Itong nga fantards nag analyze ba sa article? Hello? Hindi Lang to issue Kung sino sa bride or groom ang gumastos. This is more about ethical conduct. With Ongpin as one of the principal sponsors, escudero obviously violated important ethical boundaries as a senator and as a part of the investigating body of the senate. With his declared assets of 4m, he is accountable to explain to people his display of extravagance via his 2nd wedding.

    People, make good use of your right to demand accountability and ethical conduct of government officials. Huwag ipairal ang pagiging fanatic.

  17. Hey guys! visit the ig account name pseudo.writer. It provide usefull ang very interesting information about this politically motivated union. All issues regarding this grand wedding of the senator was shredded and analyzed thoroughly page by page. Facts and statistics are smartly collected and presented together. Some are revealing past written articles and interviews by no other than Chiz himself. I think as a Pilipino people we have the right to know the truth. All i can say after reading all those post... CHIZ is BALIMBING and MANGGAGAMIT! no loyalty at all. Imagine, getting FPJ as ninong sa kasal pero di sila magkakilala personally. First time he met FPJ sa araw mismo ng kasal nya. So from there, you can simply conclude that all those billionaire ninongs in his 2nd wedding were actually not really close to him. No personal connection only hidden agenda or intension. Remember, he plans to run as VP, running mate of sen. Grace Poe. He used Erap Estrada as a padrino para mapapayag si FPJ. But what intrigues me more, kinuha nya ring ninang si Gloria A. eh during that time galit si FPJ dahil nadaya sya sa election. He simply use those politician's name bcoz he is aiming to be a senator that time. Gee! Chiz is a person who manipulates others for personal gain. I pity Heart, she should listen to her mom.

  19. How can you say hindi kurakot when one of his pdaf still inoperable? Where were the money? Okay, let say heart has money, do you think she'll shoulder most of it? Because I am pretty sure chiz did not spend all his 10mil especially he have twins to raise. How about the family? Yeah, maybe Chiz's mom contributed some but I am sure not enought for a 3 receptions wedding. Heart's parents are rich but do you thing they shared anything when they did not approve the marriage at all? How about the tycons? Let say, they contributed most of it? In exchange of what? Think people. Wake up! Stop voting for trapo politicians! btw, I was wondering if Miriam Santiago was invited and chose not to come or they did not invite her because of Chiz involvement of the scam?

  24. Barrio Fiesta may malaking utang sa TAX sa lungsod bg Quezon City. Nakiusap na yung mode of payment is "utay utay" meaning they cannot pay in full. Yan ba ang pinagmamalaki na mayaman? Saan ang yaman dyn kung yung business tax at amellar tax lang ay di mabayaran. After masunog ang bahay ng parents ni Heart sa Cavite dun sila tumira sa condo ni Heart. Pina move ni Chiz si Heart dun sa townhouse kung saan siya malapit nakatira dahil nga di ni Chiz kasundo parents ni Heart. Nagalit si mommy Cecile dahil for the last time di siya pinakingan ni Heart instead sumunod kay Chiz. Then that's when the tv interview happened. Mommy Cecile disclosed Heart is mentally incapacitated. Then the rest is history. About this so called grand Baledin wedding, I can positively says its from PDAFund. How can this senator lavishly spent his vacation in Europe w/ Heart? kindly explain this to me. When Heart declared it on her ig account that on the first day pa lang eh max out na ang laman ng card nya. So si Chiz ang nagbayad ng lahat. Yung declared 4million na SALN by that time ubos na yun dahil they stayed in Europe for 3 weeks/ almost a month. Saan kinuha ang gastos dito sa Balesin at Manila reception? Nagsusumigaw ang PDAFund.

  25. Ang mga fantards ng couple na to, pwede ba gamitin nyo muna mga utak niyo bago kayo magcomment. Basahin niyo ang buong article at kung ano ang pinupunto nito bago kayo pumutak ng pumutak. Ano gusto nyo? Naka-bullet form bawat point para maintindihan nyo ha. Wala naman nagsasabi na hindi sila dapat nagpakasal. Walang humahadlang sa kaligayahan nila. Ang sinasabi dito hindi tugma ang SALN ni Chiz sa halaga ng ginastos niya para sa kasal nila ni Heart. Kung hindi nyo maintindihan, Statement of Assets, Liabilities and Net Worth ang ibigsabihin ng SALN. Ibigsabihin ang 4M na SALN ni Chiz eh yan yung NET WORTH niya. Bawas na ang utang mula sa ari-arian ang meaning nun. So yun ang pwede niyang ipanggastos. Noong 2012 iyon, so hindi pa natin alam magkano itinaas o ibinaba nun as of real time pero kung matalino kang tao eh in 2 years time, magiging nakakapagtaka kung biglang dumoble ito. Tingin nyo less than 10 million lang inabot lahat ang kasal nila? 1 lavish wedding sa balesin, 3 reception(balesin, manila at sorsongon) at 3 gowns(ezra, mark b. at monique lhuillier). Hindi pa kasama ang mga giveaways at transportation. Do the math people!!!! Sabi kasi ni Heart si Chiz daw lahat nagaasikaso. Public official si Chiz kaya pwedeng pwede siya makwestyon! Ngayon kung mga kinuha nilang ninong at ninang ang nagbigay ng pera, CONFLICT OF INTEREST naman!!! Again, senator si Chiz. Pagsumabit sa mga scandal yang mga sponsors nila, sa tingin niyo anong klaseng mga favor ang ibibigay ni Chiz sa mga yan dahil sa utang na loob! Magisip isip nga kayo!!! The fact pa lang na Senator siya at mga business tycoons ang mga ninong is already very fishy. Mas naniwala pa ako na walang halong kalokohan ang gastos sa kasal nila kung politicians lang din ang kinuha niyang mga ninong/ninang. Kailangan niyang harapin ang issue na ito dahil para niyang pinamumukha sa mga tao na hindi reliable ang mga SALN na iniissue at niloloko lang tayo ng gobyerno.

Pangalawa, sa uncle ni Heart ang Barrio Fiesta at hindi sa mga magulang niya. At kung may negosyo man, buti sana kung sila lang sole owner ng mga yun. At anong ipon ni Heart?! Yes maaga siya nagshowbiz, pero kumita ba siya ng ganun kalaki to last for years?! Eh wala nga siyang major projects recently eh. Yung kasikatan niya kuno noon ay guni-guni lamang! Kung sikat noon ibig sabihin may projects at maraming pumapasok na pera, kaya lang hindi ganun! Grabe pa gumastos, so ano na lang matitira? If you remember guys, may issue noon na ilang weeks na puro kangkong pinapakain niya sa helpers nila. Di ko alam kung kuripot lang o wala na talagang pera pambili ng ibang food dahil sa luho niya. Si Chiz, di rin kakasya pera niyan to spend for a very extravagant wedding! Escuderos are known na mayaman, but not all. May maliliit pa

  55. Wait for the Senator's SALN. Remember folks your college tax lessons. It isn't just cash, you have to include assets too that may appreciate or depreciate. Other than that, the bride had been working too for more than a decade. She got endorsements, appearance/talent fees for other functions, art exhibits, and regular hosting job. Look at Xian Lim, gross fee of 350K for just a few hours in Albay, right? Regarding the wedding, usually for Filipinos the families get involved and not just the bride and groom spend for it. Isn't it common that there will be pooling of resources, or they would divide who spends for the dresses, venue and reception, souvenirs, etc? Even closest friends too sometimes contribute? The bride/groom here may have deals with the suppliers in exchange of the publicity as a Senator's wedding will certainly be a high-profile wedding. Whether or not they were in designer clothes or in rags. Sure, it was certainly a lavish wedding. It would be however, unfair, to just presume that it did not come from honestly earned money,

    BTW, not a fan of these two. Just somebody who prefers to be rational and refuses to draw conclusions until all the details and figures are there, hehehe.

    2. I agree with you to not jump into conclusions. But, there is a need for explanation because his SALN shows he cannot afford such a lavish wedding. Since he is a senator, a public official, it's his responsibility to give a breakdown so that people will be able to know that it's not the taxpayers' money they are spending.

    3. Well, hello! are you updated to heart's activities likes tv guesting, regular gig or new endorsement? looks like you dont. Anyway, There was an instance where the girl aired her grievance in one of her regular show and it goes something like this "mas mahal pa ang mga damit na sinusuot ko kesa sa talent fee ko" So, from there tell me is she a superstar? the answer is NO. And please lang sa tanda ni Chiz at tagal na yang nag tratrabaho at nagkaroon na ng sariling pamilya...tatangap pa rin siya ng tulong pinansiyal sa magulang, kamag anak o kaibigan? that's Bullfrog! Remember this is his 2nd wedding not the 1st one. Hindi sya bachelor para pagkagastusan ng nanay nya. Eh kung ganun sapat pala ang dahilan ng magulang ni heart na wag umattend ng wedding dahil nakakahiya yun, naturingan may trabaho, may 2 anak na binubuhay hihingi ng tulong para sa pangalawang kasal. Chiz is 15 years older than Heart i expect that mas matino siya dapat dahil yung 2nd wife nya di maganda ang image sa publiko.

    4. Agree that the bride has been working for decade/s but can't you see her lifestyle? Have you not read their interview published on inquirer on the day of their wedding? She cried because she can't go shopping after their trip to paris because she max out her credit card? Doesn't it reflect her financial standing that she's dependent on her credit card, thus kaskas-bayad-kaskas cycle? Plus how lavishly she's spending on her birkin bags and show off. With her lifestyle it just shows how materialistic the wife is. Aside from being an actress/endorser wala ka ring marinig na ibang source of income ni heart.

  57. I seriously thought masasagot ng article ang title na tanong. Something like magkano sa gastos ang sinagot ng sponsors, ni Heart, etc. Jirits!

  59. Dongyan khit kaliwat kanan ang bashers dahil sobrang bongga atleast walang nak** at malinis. Nabash lng dahil sa mga inggitero/inggitera. This one(chizheart) tlg ang questionable, I'm a taxpayer and I also deserve an honest answer.

  61. Code of Conduct and Ethical Standards for Public Officials and Employees or RA 6713 is that public servants “and their families shall lead modest and simple lives appropriate to their positions and income.” They are also supposed “to not indulge in extravagant or ostentatious display of wealth in any form.”

    -konting delicadeza nman jan senator, nagpapadala ka sa wife mo na gusto makipagtalbugan!

  63. kahit anu palusot nila ang hirap paniwalaan, kung sabhin nila na si heart ang gumastos lalabas na parang walang kwenta si chiz. kung si chiz naman ang gumastos makkwestsyon talaga ang SALN niya. bukod kc sa paris nag america pa sila nung christmas. kung magulang naman ni chiz ang gumastos na kakahiya naman bilang lalaki at ang tanda tanda na niya papaako pa niya sa magulang niya yung gastos. ok lang naman mgshare ang magulang pero hindi sa tulad ni chiz na 40++ years old na. kung sabihin nila mga ninong ang gumastos parang hindi maganda tignan bilang pulitiko si chiz dba nga may issue pa sa alphaland ngayon so pano na yun? kapag sinabi nila sponsors/exdeals naman so mapapahiya ang fans nila kc lahat sila ang lagi sinasabi ay alta at mayaman si heart at chiz tapos aasa lang sa ganun?

  64. To those saying that Heart's family is rich, get your facts straight. She carries the name Ongpauco but they're not the rich ones in their family. It's Happy Ongpauco's family, the real owners of the Barrio Fiesta and Singing Cooks and Waiters chain who are rich. Nagka pera na lang si Heart because she's been in showbiz for such a long time. Etong kasal nila ang literal na x-deal. Migosh, ni piso yata walang nilabas si Chiz. Kapal!

  65. Nangonti ata ang hacktard sa article na to? Hahahaha

  66. Kung sagot ni senator lahat ang gastos sa kasal, questionable ang SALN nya.
    Kung ex-deal or sagot ng mga bilyonaryong ninong ang gastos. Sabit pa rin sya dahil bawal sa batas yun as public servant/goverment official.
    Kung PDAF ba ang ginamit, only Chiz knows.
    Ang alam ko lang, inindyan si Heart ng parents nya.

  67. Chiz has lost all credibility as a politician since he hook up with Heart. I hope the press will keep an eye on his and his wife's extravagant lifestyle in the future.

  68. Dati me nagsabi si Heart ang magpapa bagsak sa political.career ni Chiz. Mukang nangyayayri na nga. Tsk tsk tsk!

    ReplyDelete
  69. Yung sinasabi na SALN is 2013 Pa, and ang effect nitong wedding is partly sa 2016 pa. So wait and see muna before magcomment ng negative, Saka palagay ko, karamihan sa nagcocomment dito ay hindi nagbabayad ng tax so wag nang magreact as if may contribution sa kaban ng bayan.

  70. Sama ng mga tao dito kung makapagcomment akala mo alam lahat ng nangyari...galit kasi kayo sa personalities na involved kaya ganyan kayo makareact. So what kung si heart ang gumastos? She has the means. Ang mas visible pa nga siya sa tv endorsements than sa idol niyo.

  71. May pagka hina talaga ng comprehension yung ibang tao dito ano? Ok, let's say the expenses WERE within his SALN or WERE sponsored or whatever. What about the fact that Escudero has essentially bound himself to his sponsors? How can he go against his ninongs/ninangs who are probably going to be the same people who’s going to fund his campaign?So, pikit mata na lang siya kung may gagawin sila? Elected officials are supposed to only answer to their constituents, not the tycoons who fund their campaign. This is what's wrong with not having a realistic election spending cap. Escudero won't have to care about the people who elected him if he wins, he'd just have to answer to the people who paid for his victory. Tsk tsk, like I mentioned before, konting delicadeza nman senator. Also, @GetReal, take note on how to write an article that is well-researched and isn’t full of your biased bulls***. You should be writing articles on POLITICIANS being extravagant, not celebrities who are two of the biggest philanthropists and taxpayers in this country.

  72. Isipin nyo n lang maging first lady si Heart. She'll going to be Imelda the second but instead of collecting shoes, she' ll collecting hermes bags... yari ang kaban ng bayan... lalo ng maghihirap ang Pinas.. We regular working class filipino working hard to feed our family at least 3x a day while these public servants using our taxes w/ their lavish lifestyle. Di p b kayo nagsasawa at napapagod? when are we going to learn our lessons? Think hard and look at your family. Ask yourself if they are getting what they deserve...
