That's the Philippines.

Can you image a guy who was sentenced to life imprisonment for plunder is now Mayor of Manila

In a nation of supposedly family orientated families what is so strange about the existence of family orientated politics

At the end of the day the majority decided who they wanted to be in power. Sadly the majority of filipino's are poor, not educated properly and unwilling/incapable to see what is really going on.
