HE IS ALREADY FILTHY RICH? If you have seen his ad campaign almost every minute in television surely you have watched him say that he will not steal or make himself more richer. He would rather serve and end Filipino poverty if not then he will just continue to be a businessman. Do you believe that crap that he is saying?

I'm tired of the promises of politicians that they are going to help us and they would not going to steal from us. I don't believe anymore what they are saying there's nothing new to that.

Promises are meant to be broken, most specially if it's coming from a politician. unless we get to see them in their performances, but that's only when they are already in position as the president. the only thing we can do is make a difference not just for ourselves but for the rest of the country. and not depending too much on the president.

HAHA. he would definitely steal. C'mon, if ever he had funding for those campaign materials, obviously he wants some kick back. He would probably build roads all over the Philippines and just like the C5, it will hit his lands and etc. hmm. But if I have to choose between Mannny and Noynoy I would choose Manny. I think he is better.

awww. such senseless crap. no way at all that i can believe such pronouncements. in the first place, the reason why he became rich is simply because, he loves to accumulate wealth in his hands. that explains why the rich ones are mostly the ones who cling so much to their money. their money is their happiness. there is no gratifying them when it is money that is on the count. this is the reason why the bible so blatantly says that: WHAT WOULD IT PROFIT A MAN IF HE GAINS THE WHOLE WORLD BUT SUFFERS THE LOSS OF HIS OWN SOUL? for there are lots among us men who will never be satisfied with any amount of wealth that this world has to offer.

He is a smart businessman, and spending that much money in his campaign is raising enough eyebrows. Given that he has invested his money and the money of his supporters for his political ambitions, it is quite reasonable to think that he would try and get back his investment and I am sure that his supporters would enjoy political favors once he does win the coming national elections. And it's not only Villar who is giving us all this crap promises, all of them are. They want something from the voters so they'll just about say anything, promise anything. I would be more suspect of a person who always tell me to trust him.

Not really. hehehe. I don't believe anything that he is saying at all. I mean, I don't see the sincerity in his face, and based on his actions, I think that he is guilty with the C5 extension project... And as my dad said, there is no such thing as "Enough Money" or "Rich Enough" for people.

Hello andak, He is. there's no doubt about that. but two things that are doubtful, one; why so many commercials and two; why can't he directly answer the c5 controversy where he is entitled to answer since this issue is sinking him down to the ground. If he's really into the Presidentcy then he should just "give up" all of his business and subdivisions for GOOD,whether he wins or not. if he wins and still has those subdivisions, then that's another problem.

Almost all if not everybody in politics are corrupt, if not they will not spend millions to run for a seat in the government and even kill oppositions just to maintain their positions. What Villar claims that he will just be a businessman if he want to be richer is just an icing in the cake. politics is their business, they became richer when they are sitting in their respective positions. Who among the politicians got poorer after running his position for a year? none right? so politicians are businessmen. Besides, if they only want to serve the people they could do that without being a politician.

i do not believe in villar, even before he became a congressman. he may not steal people's money if he wins, but who will believe in one politician who spends a lot of money in the campaign and will not think of the payback time? grew-up poor but how he became billionaire, does anyone here has an idea? ask the people from the land authorities.

I don't believe any word that comes out of his mouth. He would have to be a saint to spend a lot of money just to be able to serve his country. And what he's saying about just concentrating on being a businessman if he wants to get richer is total crap. Obviously he sees being the president as just another business venture.

I am not stupid to believe all his sayings and all the sayings of all candidates. We Filipinos are smart enough to believe those craps and they are after the position of the most powerful person in the country because they knew that the current president became a millionaire because of the money of the people. I can say that Manny Villar is very desperate because he almost spend 1 billion for his campaign just to become a President. I feel sorry for him because his mind was all for the money and money for him is god. Good luck with him.

Gosh! They are just all words. We should not be deceived by what the politicians are saying and promising because in the end, nothing will happen. Oh, there will be, but the other way around. Remember that this is Philippine Politics and nothing and nobody is an angel here.
