Manny Pacquiao can’t just get it!

Still blown and tossed by the winds of uncertainty, Emmanuel D. Pacquiao, a world reknown boxer, a film actor and a politician, may have been too gullible to accept party arrangements.

Not so content with his appearances in some parties, especially at Jimmy Kimmel Show and three days after his easy win over Antonio Margarito in their WBC Super Welterweight title bout, he flew to Reno, Nevada for a concert with his band in Lake Tahoe last November 17. In fact, his supposed to be ‘topmost’ priority for his congressional tasks didn?t stop from practicing with his band which he wanted to do a full rehearsal before the show.

Many members of the maintream media, somehow, are puzzled over Pacquiao’s directions, not knowing as to who really are his true audience. Not to discount Pacquiao’s ability to draw a great crowd for boxing, the same unidentified media personnel from both print and television question as to what Pacquiao really is up to, sensing that he really does not have the considerable appeal or winning talent in singing.

They same individuals believe that Pacquiao has the most important forum in the Philippines, specifically in the 15th Congress of the Philippines.

“His focus should have been for Sarangani, not just for entertainment to which he truly has no bearing nor promising offer out of that to the province he represents,” said another writer from mainsream world magazine. “I don’t think Manny Pacquiao is getting the gist of what he should be doing.”

Meanwhile, “It looks like Pacquiao does not know that his attendees at such party are paying too much for each ticket simply to see him, not to hear him singing,” said Marc de la Zerna from Reno, Nevada. “And I do not know if Pacquiao knows about this. He is just being manipulated by the some individuals surrounding him and controlling his schedule of activities in the US.”

“Yes, they are the ones who make mnoney out of these appearances,” said Gladys Reyes, a waitress who works at Lake Tahoe.
