Social media personality Rosmar Tan answered the accusations that they intentionally didn’t pay for the food they ate at different restaurants in Coron.
It can be recalled that Rosmar, Rendon Labador, and Team Malakas visited Coron. They became controversial after storming the island’s municipal hall.
Some netizens also revealed the complaints from restaurant owners who were allegedly forced to feed the social media personalities for free.
In her statement, Rosmar said that they were not the ones who asked for free food, as it was offered to them by those restaurants on the said island.
She even claimed that the restaurants were competing with others just to be selected.
“Actually nung pumunta kami ng Palawan, nag aagawa ang mga restaurant para ILIBRE kami ng food para sa kanila kami kumain. YES! Libre totoo naman pero kapalit nun ay pi-picturan kami at ipo-post sa mga pages nila hangga’t kailan nila gusto,” said Rosmar.
“Pero dahil natuwa kami nag-post din kami sa socmed namin at prinomote mga restaurant na kinainan namin,” she added.
As of writing, the restaurant owner who accused Team Malakas of the said practices has yet to respond to Rosmar’s statement.
Rosmar, Rendon and Team Malakas were declared persona non-grata in the said island.
