The “rags-to-riches” story of Nacionalista Party standard bearer Sen. Manuel “Manny” Villar is nothing but a fairy tale, scripted, produced and directed by the NP presidential candidate.
“Growing up in Tondo, selling prawns in a palengke (market) do not make a man poor,” the Estrada camp yesterday said in a statement.
Manny Villar not only stole the pro-poor slogan of former President Joseph Estrada but concocted his “I-am-poor” stories to boost his bid for the presidency, according to Margaux Salce-do, spokesman for Estrada.
“The orange color he is using and the ‘para sa mahirap’ slogan are not Villar’s original concepts. Those are Estrada’s. He (Villar) is capitalizing on them to the hilt. Filipino voters are intelligent, they know if the candidate is pretentious or sincere in his agenda,” Salcedo said.
The spokesman reiterated that Estrada, standard-bearer of Pwersa ng Masang Pilipino, is the true opposition in the real sense of the word. FULL STORY
