HINDING-HINDI magiging “corrupt rich Asian” si Kris Aquino sakaling pasukin na niya ang mundo ng politics.
Ilang beses nang ipinagdiinan ng Social Media Queen na wala siyang planong tumakbo sa kahit anong posisyon sa 2019 elections dahil sa mga multi-million contract na pinirmahan niya ngayong taon.
Ngunit muling nagsalita si Kris tungkol sa politika nang mabasa ang comment ng netizen sa Instagram kung saan ibinandera nito ang pagiging good taxpayer ni Tetay.
Ipinost ni @askthetaxwhiz ang screenshot ng isang article mula sa Entrepreneur.com.ph na may titulong “How Kris Aquino keeps as a Crazy Rich Asian after leaving broadcast TV?” Dito nga sinabi ng netizen na bilib na bilib siya kay Kris bilang isang high profile celebrity taxpayer sa Pilipinas.
Patama pa niya sa mga bashers ni Kris, “You may hate her guts but @krisaquino is paying her taxes! Among the affluent and influential families in the Philippines, she’s the only consistent individual top taxpayer.
“Glad I’ve watched @crazyrichasians with my good friend Gov. @gracempadaca last night! She’s indeed a showstopper!
“So to all bashers and haters, make sure you’re paying taxes before you say a word. At least, Kris is among the #CrazyRichAsians not one of the #CorruptRichAsians.”
Nang makarating kay Kris ang IG post ng netizen, agad itong nag-comment ng, “My mom legally emancipated me when i was 15 so what i earned wouldn’t be reflected on her, ive handled college tuition & allowance from college onward since.
“PS. I also know wealth is relative- but i’m at a very far distance from being ‘crazy rich’. I always remind my sons-i was the daughter of a Cojuangco but their lolo was adamant about raising his children to become financially independent & our mom taught us the VALUES of consistent hard work, and being generous about sharing blessings… my sisters & brother are low maintenance.
“I work as hard as i do because of my sons & because we love travel. But let’s be honest- i have a weakness for nice clothes, makeup, shoes & watches- so i make sure to have an investment fund for our expansion…
“The 2 boys & 1,i together w/ our longtime complete staff now have very good medical coverage; and this is my life truth- what you work hard for- you appreciate & devote utmost professionalism to… You have my solemn work.
“I have worked for more than 30 years, and no way will i ever became a (corrupt, lazy, money grabbing Asian) if & when politics is part of my dest.”
