Anybody but Gibo, says Danding's wife

Relationship between uncle, nephew still strained

 

MANILA, Philippines - The wife of business tycoon Eduardo “Danding” Cojuangco Jr. said they are dismayed with their nephew, Lakas-Kampi-CMD standard bearer Gilberto "Gibo" Teodoro Jr..

Gretchen Cojuangco said that her husband Danding, who is chairman emeritus of the Nationalist People's Coalition (NPC), would support a candidate, but not Teodoro.

Teodoro was formerly a member of the NPC, but switched to the administration party where he became its standard bearer.

Mrs. Cojuangco made the statement in an interview during a visit to the University of St. La Salle in Bacolod City on Saturday.

"Anybody but Gibo. Anybody," she told reporters, after being asked who her husband would support between Teodoro and their other nephew, Liberal Party standard bearer Benigno "Noynoy" Aquino III.

"I'm just a wife that's why ga lain ang buot ko (sumasama ang loob ko) for my husband," she said in Ilonggo.

Mrs. Cojuangco said that Danding helped Teodoro for 9 years, but he failed to thank his uncle and then suddenly left their party.

"My husband had the biggest plans and belief for him, being so intelligent," she said.

She also said that Teodoro did not ask permission from his uncle when he left NPC for Lakas.

"We felt very bad for him," she said.

She also belied reports that Teodoro and her husband are okay with each other.

"He tells everybody everything's right with him and his uncle. Sala eh (mali eh). Maybe with him, but his conscience tells him otherwise. I don't know what kind of conscience that is," she said.

When pressed on who her husband will support in the elections, she said "anyone, that means anyone."

Mrs. Cojuangco was guest speaker during the graduation of policemen who took up masters’ degrees at the university, through a scholarship program funded by Cojuangco.

Danding, meanwhile, is reportedly back in the hospital due to a heart-related health concern. Report from Mark Salanga, ABS-CBN News Bacolod

biased

hindi lang sa article na to kundi sa ibang news articles na pnapalabas nyo.hndi nyo ba kayang magbalita ng walang pinapanigan?


for jamby?

baka lang itong si danding at gretchin ay gustong suportahan si jamboy ok yan hehehe.


napaisip ako

... dati si Noynoy di ko masyadong nakikita sa tv just like Villar. Di ko alam kung ano na gawa ni Noynoy just as visible as Villar did. But, what someone has done, is it the basis that he will do the same in the future? And what someone did not do will not work on for the future? hay, confusing diba? pero para sa akin, kung sino man ang uupo sa Palasyo, sana hindi corrupt. Para naman makaahon na tayo sa hirap. And if Villar did something for the Filipino people... let see if Noynoy will do the same for better future.

Bangon Pilipinas!

Mas lalong iboboto si Gibo

Pagkatapos nitong balita na 'to, ang mga isyu tungkol kay Danding hindi na pwedeng gamitin laban kay Gibo. Maganda ito para sa kanya.


Masasayang daw ang Boto

Sinasabi nyong masasayang ang boto nyo kapag ang iboboto nyo ay hindi pinapasikat sa surveys?

Saan ba talaga masasayang ang boto? Sa bumoto ng sikat at liamado o sa bumoto ng talagang karapat dapat?

6 na taon nating papasanin ang pagkakamali sa pagboto, tulad ng pagboto kina erap at gloria.. Nagsisisi daw ang mga pilipino ngunit kung titingnan mo ang mga nangungunang mga kandidato, may pinagkaiba ba sa mga dati ng mga binoto nyo?

By many reasons, kay Gordon ako.. Manalo o matalo, wala akong pakialam, basta alam kong tama ang iboboto ko at kung iba man ang manalo, kung between money or kumunoy ay libre naman uling magsisi ang mga Pilipino..

VILLAR & d' contractors inc; may mababago pa ba? NOYNOY & kamaganak inc; welcome back sa kaban ng bayan ERAP & d' gambling lords inc; parang awa na GIBO & pandak inc; I want to become d'1st PM Ang sayasaya GORDON & d volunteers inc; Pag-unlad

Pasingit po - OFWs for Gordon

Dito sa Singapore, kay daming nagwowork sa bahay, mostly from northern luzon, mga tapos ng teaching sa pinas, ibig sabihin ay tapos ng kolehiyo, nagtityagang magpaalila dito. Iyan ang suliranin ng pinas, salat sa hanapbuhay, meron man ay salat ding pangtustos sa pang-araw araw na gastusin.

Mga OFW, magkaisa tayo para kay gordon.. Siya ang subok na pong may kakayahang magbigay ng hanapbuhay.. May pag-asa tayong makauwi na kasama ang mga mahal sa buhay.. si gordon lang ang may kakayahan.. Hindi tatamad tamad, hindi lalamya lamya. Bawal ang tamad na pangulo.. Huwag na tayong makipagsapalaran sa walang nagawa..

Sinasabi sa surveys na masasayang daw ang boto pag sa mga kulelat sa surveys ang iboboto.. Magpapaimpluwensiya ba tayo sa mga huwad na surveys? Kung totoo man ay iilan lang ba ang nasurvey nila vs sa dami ng botante?

Saan ba talaga masasayang ang boto, sa bumoto ng tama o sa boboto ng hindi naman karapat dapat, sikat lang? Pinoy, 6 years po itong tatahakin natin, sana po ay bumoto ng mas karapat dapat at huwag magpaimpluwensiya sa surveys, lalo tayong mga OFW, magkaisa po tayo, dahil tayo nalang halos ang sumasagip sa hilagpos na pinas, kaya sana po ay magkaisang si Gordon ang suportahan, paniguradong may magandang ibibigay sa ating mga pilipino.

Politics

Provided that all presidential aspirants are kurakot and will just steal the taxpayers money when they are in the office,to say the least. We , voters, need to be smart. We've had fair share already of so-called seasoned and intellectual politicians which in return were also very adept in stealing the taxpayers money. My instinct tells me to go for the righteous or lesser-evil and has the political will. Those having principles that won't be compromised


Oo nga. Masyado na talaga

Oo nga. Masyado na talaga napaghalata na ang ABS-CBN ay biased.

Sa PBB lang..

Si Ms. Korina Sanchez ay may gagawing interviews sa Big-5.

Ang Big Night naman sa NINOY Aquino stadium.. Di pa ba obvious kung may pagka politika ang mga pangyayaring yan? Masyadong biased.

Pero oh well, siguro this team knows na may delubyong mangyayari kung si villar or gibo ang mananalo kaya kayod to the max sila para i-promote si Noynoy..? ganon ba yon? gudluck na lang


STEX SCTEX Hacienda

STEX SCTEX Hacienda LUISita,Hacienda Luisita research kayo kung di nyu alam at baka tulog kayo nung ibalita ito.Madami ang namatay dito at hanggang ngayun wala pang katarungan ang nabibigay sa mga magsasaka.


Tama si JOP

we don't have much of a choice.
If we know how to sift the flour,
abs-cbn being bias will not matter.
