Philippine President Benigno Aquino III Dates Korean Grace Lee

MANILA, Philippines — Philippine-Korean relations have suddenly gotten warmer. The Philippines' president, Benigno Aquino III, told reporters Wednesday that, yes, he is dating again. This time it's a South Korean woman who grew up in Manila and works there as a TV show host and radio disc jockey. Twenty-nine-year-old Grace Lee said on her TV program that "what the president said is true." Aquino turns 52 next week, and his love life has amused the nation. Since becoming president in 2010, he has split up with a town councilor and then dated two other women. Last year, he lamented that his love life was like Coke – going from regular to zero.

Shame for us Filipinos that our President has more time to date than run the country.

Men in power, no matter how ridiculous they look, attract women.

As a dude in my 20s, I have to say nothing is more annoying than rich old guys.

Not really. I mean if everyone dated their own age, everyone would have enough mates at their own age. 20 year olds could date 20 year olds, and 60 year olds could date 60 year olds. It's when the 50 and 60 year old rich guys start divorcing their old wives and thinking they can just buy new ones that screws up the balance. Are 20-30 year old guys supposed to start dating 50 and 60 year old women to make up for the different?

I wonder what the countries relations would be if they decided to split. I think it is hysterical that a 52 year old man going through a mid life crisis is running a country. LOVELY

What's not to understand, there are two compulsive liars from the opposite of the left trying to gain control in the US.

More than President Noynoy Aquino, a public figure, having the right to privacy, it is the women he dates whose right to privacy must be protected. It is also bad taste to mention them all the time specially if they have private lives and already married.
