HUWAG KANG BABOY. Nagsuot ng kostyum ni Darna ang advocate na si ‘Juana Change’ sa kilos-protestakontra pork barrel na sinagawa ng mga militanteng pangkat kahapon sa labas ng Senado, kung saan nakasuotdin ng gayak pangkatatakutan ang ilang nakiisa. Partikular na tinuligsa ng mga demonstrador ang pagsisingitumano sa pork barrel sa General Appropriations Bill of 2014 sa pamamagitan ng ilang mga probisyon.Nakapasa na sa Kapulungan ng mga Kinatawan ang badyet at pinadala na sa Senado. RAFFY LERMA

Baka mapakantana si Napoles

NANINIWALA si Sen. Sergio Os-

meña III na maaring ituro na niJanet Lim-Napoles ang mga mam-babatas at opisyal ng pamahalaanna nakinabang sa P10-bilyongpork barrel scam kung bibigyanito ng immunity ng Senate blueribbon committee.

 An i Os me ña , vi ce ch ai r ngkomite, may kapangyarihan angkomite na bigyan ng immunity ang umano’y utak ng anomalya.

“We have done that in thepast. [In] the helicopter scam,

 we have given immunity to theperson, who bought helicoptersfor Mike Arroyo [husband of theformer President] and sold heli-copters for Mike Arroyo,” sinabikahapon ng senador.

 Aniya, gusto niyang tukuyinni Napoles lahat ng “congress-men and senators whom she hasbeen bribing.”

Sinabi ni Osmeña na maariring igiit ng babae ang karapa-tan niyang hindi ipahamak ang

kanyang sarili kapag humarapito sa Senado sa Nob. 7.“The whole nation is dying to

hear Napoles ... because they  want to hear the truth .... Willthat happen? I don’t think so. Un-less we offer her to become state

 witness—which means immunity from prosecution—she’s not goingto say anything,” anang senador.

Pero tutol si Sen. Francis Es-cudero sa panukala ni Osmeña.

“It’s unlikely that she’s theleast guilty and then maybe all

those involved here might be giv-en immunity, and only the secondstringers will remain [among theaccused],” ani Escudero. NB, JRU 

Sabwatan naaamoy ni PNoy nay ang DAP sa Priority Devel-opment Assistance Fund (PDAF).

 Aniya, ang pondong pam-pasigla ng ekonomiya ay “un-

 justly and oddly vilified in themedia ... nearly two years afterthe same media lauded govern-ment for its resourcefulness.”

Nag-ugat ang mga pag-batikos sa “expose” ni Estradakaugnay sa “incentives” sa mgasenador na nagpatalsik kay Chief Justice Renato Corona.

Ngunit inamin din kahaponni G. Aquino na sa DAP—tuladng sa PDAF— ay maaaringtukuyin ng mga mambabatasang paglalaanan ng pondo.

Ni Christian V. Esguerra

PINAYUHAN ni Pangulong Aquino ang midya na pana-tilihin ang “eyes on the ball” habang sinasabi na na-kakikita siya ng sabwatan upang atakihin ang pama-halaan gamit ang kontrobersyal na Disbursement Ac-celeration Program (DAP).

“Since I am in a room full of  journalists, perhaps I can leaveit to you to connect the dots,”aniya sa pulong ng Foreign Cor-respondents Association of the

Philippines (Focap) sa Maynila.“All of these attacks came af-ter plunder cases, among oth-ers, that were filed in the Officeof the Ombudsman against a

few well-known politicians,”sinabi ng Pangulo.

Kamakailan, sinampahan ngkasong pandarambong ang 35katao kabilang na sina Sen.

Jinggoy Estrada, Juan Ponce En-rile at Bong Revilla kaugnay saP10-bilyong pork barrel scam.

Sinabi ng Pangulo na mahi-rap isipin kung paano maiuug-

UK envoy matatas sa FilipinoKASAMA na ang Filipino sa mgabanyagang wikang ginagamit ngbagong embahador sa Pilipinasng United Kingdom, si Asif Ah-

mad, na nagpayaman sa dila ni- yang lumibot na sa buong mundosa loob ng 14 taon niyang pagli-lingkod sa British foreign service.

Nagsasalita si Ahmad ng Ben-gali, Urdu, Kutchi, Farsi at Pran-ses maliban sa kinalakihan niyangIngles. Tiniyak niyang matutunanang Filipino higit pa sa “magan-dang umaga” o “salamat po.”

N a l i p a t s i A h m a d b i l a n gbagong mission chief ng Bri-tanya sa Pilipinas nitong Hulyo,

kapalit ni Stephen Lillie.

Bago tumulak sa Maynila,nagsanay si Ahmad sa ilalim ngisang tagapagturo ng wika saLondon na sinilang sa Maynila.

BIR lists down least taxpaying richof $1.15 billion,shared the 14th spoton the list of thecountry’s richest.

The Gotianun fam-ily of Filinvest Devel-opment landed on17th place with $825million.

 Villar, who owns Vista Land, was the18th richest individu-al with $720 million.

The Yuchengco

family, who ownsRizal CommercialBanking Corp.(RCBC), ranked 21st

 with $570 million.Other individuals

 who were on Forbes’list last year but whodid not make it to theBIR’s roster were Mar-iano Tan Jr., 22ndrichest with $420 mil-lion; Enrique Aboitiz,

23rd richest with$400 million; Menar-do Jimenez, 27thrichest with $265 mil-lion; Alfredo Ramos,30th richest with

$250 million; JulietRomualdez, 35th rich-est with $200 million;Bienvenido TantocoSr. and family, 36thrichest with $195 mil-lion;

Jacinto Ng Sr.,37th richest with$190 million; Tomas

 Alcantara and family,38th richest with$160 million; MichaelCosiquien, 39th rich-

est with $150 million;and Edgar Sia II, 40thrichest with $140 mil-lion.

The BIR alsolearned that somepeople who took thetop spots on theForbes’ list ranked rel-atively low on therevenue agency’s ros-ter.

For instance, Hen-

ry Sy Sr., the tycoon who owns SM, wasthe richest man in thePhilippines last year

 with a net worth of $9.1 billion. But he

 was only the 73rdbiggest taxpayer onthe BIR’s list. Sy re-portedly paid P93.76million in taxes.

Lucio Tan and fam-ily were named thesecond richest with acombined net worthof $4.5 billion. ButTan ranked only 138th on the BIR’slist, paying P11.97million in taxes.

John GokongweiJr. and family was the4th richest on Forbes’list with a combinednet worth of $3.2 bil-lion. John paid P8.38

million in taxes, plac-ing 260th on the BIR’sroster.

Sy, Tan andGokongwei, in fact,

 were outstripped by several show biz per-sonalities on the BIR’stop taxpayers list.

The BIR said theobjective of releasingthe advertisements re-lated to tax payments

 was to encourage com-

pliance with the coun-try’s tax laws and todiscourage tax evasion.

But it stressed thatone could not auto-matically conclude

that tax evasion took place when someonelanded on the Forbes’list of the richest butnot on the BIR’s ros-ter of top taxpayers.

“It is possible thatone had accumulatedassets over the past

 years but did not earna substantial incomein 2012. In that case,it is understandable

 why someone can

land on the Forbes’list but not on theBIR’s list,” BIR Deputy Commissioner Nelson

 Aspe explained.

By Michelle V. Remo

 A FTER coming out with the listof top taxpayers for 2012, theBureau of Internal Revenue

(BIR) released another report involv-ing the richest individuals in the coun-try who did not make it to the rosterof tax contributors.

In its latest weekly public advertisementpublished yesterday,the BIR detailed

Forbes’ list of the rich-est Filipinos in 2012and where they stoodin the bureau’s owntaxpayers’ roster.

The comparison re- vealed that some of the individuals on theForbes’ list were noton the BIR’s top tax-payers’ roster.

In computing aperson’s net worth,

Forbes Magazine took an individual’s assetsless liabilities. On theother hand, the BIR’slist was based on theamount of tax an in-

dividual paid.Those who were

on the Forbes’ list butnot on the BIR’s roster

of top taxpayers wereEduardo CojuangcoJr., siblings Iñigo andMercedes Zobel, An-drew Gotianun andfamily, Manuel Villar,and Alfonso Yucheng-co and family.

 According toForbes, Cojuangco of San Miguel Corp. wasthe 10th richest indi-

 vidual in the country 

last year with a net worth of $1.4 billion.

The Zobel siblingsof Ayala Corp., who

 were reported to havea combined net worth

SHOWBUZZ THURSDAY, OCTOBER 24, 20136

ROMEL M. LALATA, Editor 

‘Anak’ speaks upGirls come

and go but the constant “girl” inKa Freddie’s life is his daughter,Maegan. Here are Maegan’ssentiments on the issue:

“She (Ka Freddie’s girlfriend)lives with us now. My family and I also stay with Tatay sinceI’m seven months pregnant.She’s nice and quiet. Her momslept over once. It seems their(Freddie’s and the girl’s) rela-tionship is serious. They met inTatay’s show in Mindoro. Atfirst, we thought she was 25 be-cause she doesn’t look 16. She’seven taller than me. Beyondthat, it’s none of my business.

“My brother is already 24and his wife is expecting a baby,too. We are all grown-ups and

 we are glad that Tatay is happy.He has the right to live his life

any way he pleases.“As for my Tatay’s detractors,

huwag n’yong ibaling sa tatay koang galit n’yo sa problema sa

 paligid at sa gobyerno natin.“Nothing you say or do will

affect or ruin us anyway. My fa-ther and his song ‘Anak’ will for-ever be part of the foundation of our country. Whether you like itor not, nothing can changethat.”

Spoken like a devoted

daughter. Live and let live! Loveand let love! Nobody’s too oldor too young to love. Why waituntil it’s too late?

Hoop sensationBenjie Paras is one proud

daddy. His 16-year-old son,Kobe, is the latest sensation inthe basketball world. He repre-sented the Philippines and wonthe International Slam Dunk 

Contest.The young hardcourt heart-

throb has signed up with GMA 7. (Brother Andre also joinedthe Kapuso network.)

What’s Benjie’s advice to hisson about show biz and girls?“Just to act natural and to takeacting workshops,” he said. “Asfor girls, it’s OK to fall in lovebut he should be ready to gethurt. Heartbreak should not

stop him from loving because

it will make him stronger.”What are his do’s anddon’ts for Kobe? “To grad-uate from college and nev-er back out when he com-mits to something.”

In what ways are they alike? “Kobe is also funny and friendly,” Benjie said.“Just like me, he’s not aquitter and he loves chal-lenges.”

Will Kobe be able to topBenjie’s feat in the Philip-pine Basketball Association(PBA), winning both Rook-ie of the Year and Most

 Valuable Player titles in thesame year (1989)?

“It’s too early to tell,” Benjiesaid. “He’s in third year highschool in La Salle. He still has along way to go. But, of course,I’m here to guide and train him.”

With a PBA legend as hismentor, Kobe is just a few drib-bles away from basketball su-

perstardom.Concerned momLike any mother, Ate Vi ( Vil-

ma Santos) is concerned abouther son, Luis Manzano, but she

 would rather let him fight hisown battles.

The Star for All Seasons issecure in the thought that shehas raised her firstborn well, sohe’s well-equipped to hurdle

 whatever trials may come his way.

When asked to commentabout Luis’ (rumored) breakup

 with Jennylyn Mercado, here’s what Ate Vi had to say: “I don’tmeddle in my son’s affairs. I

 just keep praying that they will

both be OK. Luis runs to mefrom time to time. When I ask him if he’s OK and he says he’sfine, that’s enough reassurancefor me. I just remind him that

 when he’s having problems, heshould not forget to count hisblessings.”

 And that is also what Ate Vi will do instead of counting the years as she celebrates herbirthday on Nov. 3. “I have somany blessings to be thankfulfor,” she says. “I’ll spend my birthday abroad with my family.I need to take a break to keepme sane. Quality time with my family is the best antidote tostress and fatigue.”

That Vilma Santos charm willnever wane through trends and

 year s. The radia nce of Ate Vi’ssmile is genuine, even whenthere are no lights and camerasto capture it. It comes naturally because it’s a reflection of thekindness of her heart.

BOOSTERS LUSOT

BINUHAY ni Elijah Millsap angatake ng Petron Boosters upangbiguin ang pagbagsak ng mga

makukulay lobo ng San Mig Coffee, 99-88, kagabi sa PBA Governors Cup cham-pionship sa Smart Araneta Coliseum.

Umiskor si Millsap ng 30 puntos, 12 sa fourthhalf na kung saan ay nilusutan ng Boosters angmatinding bira ng Mixers.

Tabla ang best-of-seven title series, 3-3.Samantala, wala pang desisyon ang Barangay 

Ginebra kung sino kina Ian Sangalang at GregSlaughter ng kukunin overall top draft pick Nobyembre 3 sa Robinson’s Place Midtown sa Er-mita.

“We still don’t know. We’re still discussing on who (to pick),” sabi ni Ginebra coach Ato Agustin.MGA ISKORPETRON 99 - Millsap 30, Fajardo 21, Santos 12, Cabag-not 12, Lutz 11, Lassiter 7, Tubid 6, Kramer 0, Hubalde 0,Ildefonso 0.SAN MIG COFFEE 88 - Blakely 21, Devance 17, Yap 17,Simon 14, Pingris 13, Reavis 4, Mallari 2, Gaco 0, Barro-ca 0, De Ocampo 0.Quarters: 28-19, 52-39, 74-63, 99-88

KC, AngelTUWING nababanggit ang pan-galang Chandler Parsons, talaganamang obvious ang kilig ni KC

Concepcion.Kahit na hanggang dibdib

lang siya nito.Si Parsons , power forward

ng Houston Rockets sa NBA, ay may taas na 6’9. Mahigit isangtalampakan ang laki niya sa ak-tres na pinipilit paaminin niKris Aquino in her morningshow ‘‘Kr is TV.”

Todo deny naman si KC namay kaugnayan siya sa player.

‘‘Friends lang kami, ka-tweet

ko lang siya,” sabi niya.

Oo nga’t nag-dinner silanang dumalaw sa Pilipinas siParsons to play against the Indi-ana Pacers in the NBA GlobalGames,

‘‘Pero ang dami naman nam-ing kasama, parang party.”

It was her first time to

meet Parsons personally, ac-

cording to KC.By the way, hiwalay na pala

talaga ang Azkal na is Phil

 Younghusband at actress AngelLocsin. Wala pang makapagsabi

 what caused the breakup. Thirdparty kaya?

Mabuti pa si Sol Mercado,Global Port cager in the PBA, atsi Denise Laurel na aktres din,going strong and in fact en-gaged na. Hinandugan na ni Solng engagement ring si Deniserecently, di ko lang alam kunglumuhod siya nang mag-pro-pose.

‘‘ I’ll be the best,” sabi niya.
