LAGUNA — Laguna Governor Sol Aragones has spoken out against what she described as efforts by her political detractors to damage her reputation, alleging that her critics are spending substantial amounts of money to finance attacks against her credibility.

Alongside her remarks, Aragones also addressed criticisms surrounding her use of luxury and branded clothing, explaining that many of her outfits are affordable and that some branded pieces were given to her as gifts.

During a visit to a university in Laguna, the governor jokingly responded to students who gathered around her, saying that the outfit she was wearing cost only ₱999.

She also challenged her critics to pay closer attention to the clothes she regularly wears, pointing out that many of them come from garment stores selling overruns.

Aragones further explained that some of her branded clothing items were not personally purchased but were gifts from friends during special occasions.

“May mga branded din akong damit na regalo ng mga friends ko tuwing special occassions,” the governor said.

Meanwhile, Aragones encouraged the public to support her upcoming bazaar, emphasizing that proceeds from the activity would be used to help people in need.

“May naisagawa na tayo at may plano pa. Ang kinikita rito ay mapupunta sa mga nangangailangan,” she said.

The governor also cited the proceeds from her previous bazaar, which were allocated for the construction of temporary classrooms in the mountainous areas of Pakil, Laguna, providing additional learning spaces for students in the community.

Through the planned bazaar, Aragones said she hopes to continue generating funds for projects and initiatives that would benefit communities in need.
