What the First Gentleman did for Love


PROFESSING his love for his wife, First Gentleman Jose Miguel Arroyo said this was the reason why he volunteered to leave the country and bear the pain of separation.
"I love my wife very much. ... Being away from my wife and my family is a very painful decision," said the First Gentleman in a statement on Wednesday, the same day President Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo announced to business leaders that her husband had decided to go abroad.

The First Gentleman said it was difficult for him to see the President take the brunt of criticisms for the negative press he received through the years.

"If there were anything I can do, any sacrifice I can make, to give her peace of mind, I would never hesitate to do it. That is why I have offered to leave," the First Gentleman said.

Media reports have alleged that the First Gentleman has influenced several government transactions and appointments.

He has also been accused of stashing away campaign contributions to his wife. A witness in the ongoing Senate hearing has accused the First Gentleman of allegedly receiving "jueteng" payoffs.

In Malacañang, Press Secretary Ignacio Bunye said he received initial information that the First Gentleman might leave the country on July 5.

He said he had no information where the First Gentleman would be going, although sources said he might go to Hong Kong or the United States, where his brother owns an apartment.

Asked how long the First Gentleman would be gone, Bunye said, "The President has said that the First Gentleman's decision was a sacrifice for her, for their children, and other members of the family. It's everybody's sacrifice. We cannot say it's a sacrifice if he would be gone only for a short period of time so we can assume a much longer
period."

Bunye said he did not know what would happen to the Office of the First Gentleman when he leaves.

In a phone interview, the First Gentleman's lawyer Jesus Santos said his client's decision was the best way he could help his wife hurdle the present political crisis.

"He is saddened by his decision, but he is doing this for the country," lawyer Jesus Santos told INQ7.net.

He also said there was no legal impediment for the First Gentleman to leave.

Kaka-touch naman ito! Hoy, Mr. FG, isama mo na rin si Mikey at si Iggy. :sukaback:

[Bogeyman]

Si Iggy magpapa-iwan, si Mikey kasama sa pag-alis. Buti naman, huwag na siyang mag-ilusyon na artista siya. My only gripe is that FG Mike should have done this earlier. To be more specific, the minute that GMA assumed office.

Look out, kaya aalis si FG Mike kasi makikipagtagpo naman siya kay Vicki Toh.

Dito natin makikita ang power ng telecommunications.

Maraming big-time jan na nasa preso eh kaya pang magpatakbo ng business nila, cellphone lang ang gamit. I don't think "distance" nowadays is a significant factor in determining a person's ability to influence matters from overseas.

[bonch2484]

that's crap! what kind of a man leaves his wife and tells the whole wide world that "I'm doing this for her"? If he was man enough, he should have the balls to face all the issues against their family... just a thought

[Bogeyman]

I don't know if he can be held liable since what he holds is not even an official position. Besides, wala naman siyang gagawin dito eh. Pampagulo lang, kumbaga. He's just taking up space. He might as well make himself useful someplace else.

[kinyo]

sus ... sino niloko nya ... tuwang-tuwa nga syang umalis noh ... maliban sa nakatakas na sya sa juetengate ... libreng-libre na nyang makakasama ang kanyang number toh!

[chain]

dadalaw kay Vicky na naman.. haay.. any which way you look at it, it's still crap.

[kaloi]

this is a lesson that the sanate or congress should take notice. if a president is elected all his/her affinity to the second or third degree shouldn't be allowed to run for any office or be appointed to any public possition. para ba yung mga raffle promo sa mga malls, hindi ka pwedeng sumali sa raffle kung may kamaganak kang working sa kompanya na pinagmulan ng raffle.

[falken]

Wow! He really thinks this country's full of morons who'd believe in whatever crap he's trying to shove our way.

[ts1n1ta]

i, too, think this is BS. There is no need for him to leave the country. cguro nga magsasama lang sila ni vicky. ahihihi. naughty FG!

[Matrix]

baka mag stay sya sa $20,000 suite sa Vegas!

[oldblue]

baka mag stay sya sa $20,000 suite sa Vegas

staying in a $20k suite in Vegas or leaving your wife? very hard decision indeed

[kiper]

Naku naman..tagal nang hiwalay nyan..

Inannounce niya lang siguro formally sa public..haha

[chua_riwap]

Naku naman..tagal nang hiwalay nyan..

Inannounce niya lang siguro formally sa public..haha

Naku, entra ulit si Nani Perez sa :heart: ni GMA! Uuuuuuuuuyyyy!

[Belisarius]

Thats a lot of BS, who does he think he's fooling with this too late in the day drama, only pro GMA stations and papers are playing up this alleged sacrifice. No one will believe him, Vicky Toh will be very happy to him near again. GMA can do her usual tricks again without him around to bother with. Akala niya tanga tayo????

[Hero]

the best move he ever made..ESCAPE!

at least andito pa rin ang next president natin..the answer to all our problems..IGGY!
please bear in mind he loves us dearly!

[Rediesel]

[IceColdBeer]

Tumakas na hehehe. Hello Vicky! eToh na po ako

[ts1n1ta]

ahahahaha that's funny. kasama ba si mikey sa paglayas?

[ILuvDetailing]

Kita ko pa si FG at si GMA sa TV nag hholding hands pa hehehe... halatang halata na nagpplastikan lang.

Mukhang mas magaling pang umarte si FG kesa kay Mikey... siya lang dapat mag artista :bwahaha:
