i like the it. it fires up my determination and somehow influenced the way i should think. 'a wise man will do what his belly dictates and never the site of his eyes thus he will choose this but not that." - Lao Tzu
This is the most plastik comment that I a have heard of coming from this biographer. Giving a picture about Taipans as disciplined and hardworking people coming from rags to riches using their sheer hard work makes us all stupid. George was already rich before establishing Metrobank. Gokongwei is related to the Roxas clan and Lucio Tan is a Marcos crony!!! Saying that their kids are humble is obnoxious.. They Ty's alone has so many cars and one of the mall tycoon mentioned on this interview bought the contract of a female star which up until now does not have a bf because of course she was already bought by the tycoon's son!!!
John Gokongwei is from Cebu and he is not related to Roxas and Tan. By the way he is not a highschool dropout but has an MBA degree from one of prominent univ in the US.
