Vice Ganda slams people who earn big salary without going to work

• Vice Ganda went viral after calling out wage inequality and unfair labor conditions in the Philippines
• He compared struggling workers to individuals earning large salaries despite minimal work
• His remarks on It’s Showtime sparked strong reactions and widespread discussion online
• Many netizens echoed his sentiments about systemic inequality and economic imbalance

Vice Ganda has gone viral after making candid and pointed remarks about labor inequality in the Philippines during a recent episode of It’s Showtime.

During a segment of the noontime program, the comedian-host spoke passionately about what he described as the unfair treatment of ordinary workers compared to individuals in positions of power who allegedly earn significantly more despite doing less.

Vice Ganda highlighted the struggles of everyday Filipinos who work long hours under difficult conditions yet receive minimal compensation. He contrasted this with individuals who, according to him, earn substantial salaries even without consistent attendance or effort.

He said: “Ang sakit sa Pilipinas, ang daming nag-trabaho pero di sumisweldo ng sapat. Merong di pumapasok pero ang laki ng sweldo! Tapos wala tayong magagawa? Imagine mo mamamayang Pilipino nag trabaho ng 8hrs, nag jeep nag lrt binaybay ang tanghali, ang araw, hindi nakakain, minimum (ang sweldo). Merong di pumapasok daang libo ang sweldo. It’s just not fair, it’s so alarming.”

In another development, Vice Ganda confirmed that he will be returning to his comedic roots following a series of dramatic projects.

Reports indicate that discussions have already taken place for a possible project with veteran actor-host Vic Sotto, whom Vice personally greeted with a birthday message that included a surprise movie proposal.

Previously, Vice Ganda also shared his thoughts on the possibility of Leni Robredo reconsidering a presidential run. Despite Robredo’s earlier statement that she would not join the 2028 national elections, the host expressed belief that public support and a sense of duty could influence her decision.
