A Clever Performance

While we are in the heat of mind-boggling corruption scandals in the political arena, let us have a little bit of dissection at one of the low profile politicians LP and his media wife MW.

Although married to a media personality, LP is quite low-key and hardly ever in the news. When some of his family members were once controversial, LP remained muted. Only when he ran for public office and won did he become to get noticed – for the wrong reasons.

Prior to politics, even while being married to MW, the family’s lifestyle was just regular by standards – as in ordinary middle class. She with her television commitments while he in his corporate world. But that isn’t so in the now. Some people within the couple’s circle have noticed a big difference ever since LP joined the political bandwagon.

Reportedly after winning the elections, LP and MW family’s lifestyle had drastically changed. For one, the once simple abode has now reportedly transformed into a mansion. Their kids now get to travel abroad as frequently as they like. One or two of them are currently enrolled in a prestigious university abroad. These and more happened within LP’s first term in office. Is this how lucrative being in government has become?

How much is the salary of an elected government official and a media person? Does that equate to something so huge as to afford such a lifestyle? Hmmm..quite seamless execution.

Some say that generally, LP’s side of the family is low profile at best, yet scandalously controversial at some point in time. Right now, it is the younger LP who is in the public eye, fueled as it is with the gigantic controversies that have surfaced in the recent past. Fortunately for him, compared to others who are similarly situated, LP is still out of the radar – for now.
