This is the continuation of my story on Best Dressed Women Annual Awards Ball held on September 26 wednesday at the Shangrila Hotel in Makati City, Philippines.

These lovebirds were my seatmates, Luis-Maria Zabaljauregui and Marvi Sala. Luis told me he has retired from his work and lived in Bacolod but his former company re-hired him as consultant to clean-up the organization. Ten top officers were fired but still got fat separation packages of some P50M and more for each. According to Luis, the company lost some 1.5M from the previous officers and employees’ connivance.
Graft pervades even in private sector not only in government.
