PRESIDENT Benigno Aquino likened his love life to a popular soda brand saying it has turned from “regular” to “zero.”
The President joked about his non-existent love life when he met with Filipinos in Beijing.
“Someone asked me about my love life. I said it’s just like Coca Cola,” he said. “Before, it was regular, then it became light. Now it’s zero,” he told a laughing crowd.
Mr. Aquino’s love affairs were brief, usually ending after the lady of interest was exposed by a nosy media.
