Except for the “Mahiwagang Kaldero,” it was quite a show the other night for the SEA Games opening ceremony. But it would have been a bit better, if the original songstress, our dear Lea Salonga, who sang the original theme song was there. Heard she was paid P1.4M just to tape the song? Wow. Did she tell the organizers she would not make it for the opening salvo? If she did, boy that’s quite a talent fee. Just to tape the song? Hmmm. Just right to open with a bang. It was worth P600M. At least, the “sick man” of Asia was also seen dancing the night away. Good medicine for him. He claims he’s getting worse these day. Hope these Games will rejuvenate him.
