Not here, not on my platform,” she added.</p><div><br/></div><div><a href="https://www.abs-cbn.com/2024/4/18/iwa-moto-pampi-lacson-celebrate-12th-anniversary-1600"><strong>READ: Iwa Moto and Pampi Lacson celebrate 12th anniversary</strong></a></div><div><br/></div><p>The actress-businesswoman then shared how all jobs–– whether may it be deemed small or big by others–– should never be degraded. She revealed how becoming an online seller has helped her bring her children to good schools. </p><p>“Never never underestimate any job–– mapa janitor, mapa kahit ano yan. P*nyeta. Marangal na trabaho ito, okay? Lahat ng klase ng trabaho. Alam niyo ba? Na itong pag lilive selling ko, napagaaral ko yung mga anak ko sa mga magagandang eskwelahan… Lahat ng trabaho na tama, na marangal, wag na wag niyong mamaliitin,” she maintained.</p><p>Iwa asserted that she will continue to fight the comments that will still degrade jobs such as being an online seller or any job for that matter.. </p><p>“Maliit man yan o malaki…Never ever lalo na yung mga naghihirap at nag susumikap, never ever gawin na maliitin. Lalo na sa platform ko. Ako mismo makakalaban mo,” she ended.  </p>
