Mar Roxas

I wrote this a few weeks back and posted it on my Facebook.

Yes, he does take the MRT.

I mean, bakit hindi, di ba. Doesn’t matter if he’s a multi-millionaire, or if he’s a senator. Walang kinikilala ang trapik– not unless willing kang mag-helicopter araw-araw galing Cubao papuntang Senado, sa CCP. Pero di naman ganu’n si Boss, e, wala siyang ganu’ng star complex.
