After the issue of the $20,000 dinner came, a recent report showed that the assets of President GMA rise dramatically to a very high percentage. This rise was reported due to gains when she invested in the stock market.
Malacanang have not answered this issue clearly, but according to reports it was her family who invested and not her.
Whether she or any member of the First Family invested in the stock market, do you think it is alright to do so?
I am not sure about the legality, but I think it is unethical especially if the stock were owned by a big company where the President can influence or control.
What's your stand? No hurting words, please.

The Problem is, where did she get the money for her investment? even if they find her innocent, she should still proceed and cooperate if such investigation takes place. Sadly, for me i doubt she is, probably her side and husband's sad of the family is not. We have more problems to tackle and this..probably will handle by others, to the court.

That's actually quite normal, i guess.. Though anybody in the government sector cant be opening companies etc, but they can open it in the name of their wife or family members, while they are the main controller of the company.. lol =D
Everybody is doing that, and thus it's nothing to be surprised about.. Though illegal, but they wont get caught for doing so.. After all, it belongs to the 'family', and the family includes them.. haha =D
