"What has she done wrong?’’
Apparent President-elect Benigno "Noynoy’’ Aquino III posed this question to the thousands who logged on to an online petition on Facebook for his sister, television host and actress Kris Aquino, to fulfill a promise to leave the country if he won the presidency.
Aquino is currently leading by more than 5 million votes his closest rival, ousted President Joseph Estrada, in the partial tally of the Commission on Elections.
"She is a citizen of the republic, she has not committed any crime, why should she leave the country? You just can’t please every one,’’ said Aquino in a press conference here.
Kris, in the heat of an altercation with Ruffa Gutierrez and Annabelle Rama two months ago, said she would gladly consider leaving the country if she turned out to be a "cause of stress" for her elder brother if he won the presidency,
A "despedida’’ page on Facebook was launched shortly after it was clear that Aquino had run away with the presidency, and more than 7,000 have signed on, asking Kris to live up to her promise.
