This is the April 28 episode of Kandidato, television’s toughest job interview, Nacionalista Party presidential bet Senator Manny Villar gets grilled by Arnold Clavio, Howie Severino, and Malou Mangahas on the topics surrounding his candidacy.

These are my reactions regarding the Manny Villar Kandidato Job Interview.

On Personality

What I like with Villar is his consistency. His answer on which Philippine hero does he idolize is Andres Bonifacio, who like him, came from the poor, worked hard and is very brave. He has also shown me how great of a father and a family man he is – he brought his kids well, he said his happiest times are being with his family and children especially when they are all together celebrating New Year and Christmas.

This day is very special. Today is May 1, Labor Day. It may not be very obvious but there are a lot of people who wants one of the top presidentiables Noynoy Cojuangco Aquino to answer questions regarding the Hacienda Luisita controversy – especially because his family gets a tiger share in the hacienda.

He is part of the Cojuangco Family, at the same time he is running for the presidency and the election day is coming up in a few day’s time – there is  a need for people to be assured that this won’t happen again; that Noynoy be cleared of this issue. This is one of the many tests he has to combat as his family has owned the hacienda for around fifty or so years already.

One of the recent issues surrounding the upcoming elections is Manny Villar’s alleged lie regarding his family’s socio-economic status when he was young. I was actually browsing hours ago regarding elections and found GMANews.TV reports Manny Villar as middle class. His breadwinner story has inspired a lot of people but for the past few weeks, his critics used poverty against him. If you would ask me, it is not only the gross income that determines the financial status. There are a lot of factors to determine so. How can one consider anyone not poor when regardless the fact that they do own these businesses and that they went to this hospital for check-up, these families, including Villar’s still face challenges just to survive from the struggles in life.
