I was surprised this morning while I was browsing through FACEBOOK when I saw a picture of the Philippine First Lady Liza Marcos together with the sons of popular TV actress Kris Aquino. Wow! That is sort of revelation. Mukhang bati na ang Marcos & Aquino family & clan. It turned out that they were related actually as in FL Liza Marcos is an aunt to Kris Aquino's children.
Reminds me of my cousin who is married to the nephew of former Philippine President Gloria Macapagal Arroyo. Then my brother worked as PSG for the Palace way back long time ago and my family was a loyalist to the Marcos family. I mean there are too many Marcos Loyalists way back in the 60's up to now. From KBL Party up to the present with Pres,. Marcos Sr. to the Junior Marcos who is currently the President of the Philippines. Our neighbors worked for the Marcos family until his demised. Look no further but the whole Fort Bonifacio was loyal to the Marcos Family until now. No question asked, it's just a matter of respect and honor to whom we pledged allegiance with based on security and maybe blood connection or family clan connections.
Sometimes we are just not willing to divulge something about connections because we love to find employment wherein we got that job because we don't have connection. Sometimes that's impossible in Philippines. You must have connection if not you wont have a job. I tried that though. LOL. Isn't that funny? When I was in that company for about 6 months already, my supervisor was shocked to find out that I was related to my cousin who was his favourite doctor/specialist at the Department of Health. He scolded me why I didn't let him know. Why? Would it change the course of time? I have talents and I am a hardworking medical representative for their company. I mean anybody should be employed based on person's ability, intelligence, education and qualifications. Not just being related to whoever is in power. You know what I mean?
