NEW YORK, New York (The Adobo Chronicles, New York Bureau) – Realizing that being a guest lecturer at Harvard University is not going to bring much income to sustain her new lifestyle as a private citizen, ex-Philippine Vice President signed up for a modeling contract with a leading New York clothing line.

In this photo, Robredo dons a Burberry Cotton Gabardine which has a price tag of $1,918 (tax not included). That amounts to P112,697.84,, more than six times the average monthly salary of Filipinos.

So much for Angat Buhay, Robrerdo’s pet project to uplift the living conditions of her countrymen.
