His driver said this is the business exec’s way of celebrating his birthday (last April). “Ipanghatag ni Sir ang iyang gipamalit nga ukay-ukay sa iyang mga kabus nga silingan,” the driver said. “Iya pa una ning palabadahan.”
SECOND TIME. It was the second time the said corporation prexy and CEO celebrated his birthday that way, according to his driver.
