...the rich government...

Who says we are a third-world country? That's totally untrue.

Look, Mike Defensor, upon knowing that my uncle, Jun Lozada, didn't have any more money,decided to give him 50,000. It was his own money, and not in any way from the government. It just so happened that he brought it in his car. But that's not surprising, since all of us do have 50,000 pesos in our cars.Right?

Now, Manny Gaite, the guy who gave my uncle 500,000 pesos, is claiming that this money was "out of compassion" for my uncle and is in no way again from public funds nor is it in any way a bribe for him to shut up. Again, this is not surprising, because whenever a friend tells us that he doesn't have any more money, the first figure that comes to our mind is 500,000 pesos. Right?

Yeah, we're a rich country...
