This has got to be the most expensive learning experience ever.After spending (at least) P300M in advertising, DILG Secretary Ronnie Puno has decided to withdraw from the vice presidential race. His epiphany came to pass when he went around the country and discovered that the people's welfare was more important than "personal ambitions".
However, he didn't touch on a point that should have been a greater cause for concern: he was in for a tough fight with formidable contenders like Mar Roxas, Loren Legarda, Jojo Binay and perhaps... Vilma Santos or Gwen Garcia.
Wow... P300M. The networks aren't complaining. The ad agency (with its creatively-challenged firepower) is certainly not.
But... sad... that kind of money could have built hundreds of classrooms. Could have done a lot for public welfare.
Last time I checked, that kind of money doesn't grow on trees.
Or does it?
