    An Indonesian Billionaire who owns the largest noodle factory and flour milling operation in the world. Crony of Suharto. Of Chinese descent.

    He now controls Smart Telecoms, Meralco, PLDT, Metro Pacific, NLEX, TV5, Makati Medical Center etc. He also owned Fort Bonifacio before selling to the Ayalas a few years ago.

    Now you know who Salim is.

    He almost got GMA-7 too, if not for a last minute change of mind by one major stockholder.

    Salim needs Manny P. as a front kasi in our constitution bawal ang utilities such as communications, media and electricity to be controlled by foreigners.

    National security risk daw, but alam mo sa Pilipinas...everything is negotiable.

    i don't think they're that reckless and have no regard for Phil. laws

    Metro Pacific Investments Corp. is the Philippine-based investment company of First Pacific

    Metro Pacific is a filipino entity

    so it can buy Phil. companies

    di ako lawyer

    but i'm sure they (MPIC) can legally own Phil. companies
