The 40 Richest Pinoys Today

I came across this article in Forbes.com listing the Philippines’ 40 Richest Filipinos. But our fellow countrymen were just mince meat compared to the richest people in Asia. With only a combined total of $16+ billion, we can’t even compare to China, heck even with Hong Kong’s rich people. Forbes says it is due to our small stock market and economy. Well, anyway, read on to know more! This list however, combines the Family Networth and not the individual.
