I always write about rich people in the Philippines. Before I wrote about the top ten richest people in the Philippines but my blog which I posted all those article was gone due to spam which I did not do. Henry Sy still the richest Filipino today with $5 million dollars from his SM empire. The Philippines richest is up by an impressive 39% and grew from $16.4 billion to $22.8 billion. The Philippines economy grew by 7.3% in the first quarter and almost all of the richest double or gain a lot from their investment. I think only Manny Villar is the biggest loser because he spent millions of money this last election but lost. Poor Villar, because of scandal he lost his ultimate dream.
