Journalist and NGO Worker Seeks Revocation of

SPA from Filipino Actor Raymond Bagatsing


Manila Philippines- Ngo worker/Journalist Ma. Urduja O.Li, wants a revocation of the Special Power of
Attorney that says Actor Raymond Bagatsing allowed her to handle his tax issues during the "Tax Rush" in
Manila last month until the deadline on the 15th of January this year.
The SPA was Dated January 13, 2011.
In a transatlantic call the story narrated to me was (as transcribed in my own words) "I have cut off all
association with Mr. Bagatsing after that neurotic incident with his female companion (a tourist Mexican by
blood).

"I cannot work in an environment like that and worst Mr. Bagatsing thinks it’s about money and that it is
selfish, What money is He talking about? I am doing multiple jobs for Him and I am under paid as it is and I
never complained I was happy with my work; Mr. Bagatsing also said I was "harrasing" his friends- I only
know three friends of His who I am very remote from!" except his Manager, who is a decent bloke" she said.
Ms. Li was advised by friends from the National Press club of the Philippines and social networks to "fight"
back since alleged bullying has taken place (by the Female Mexican tourist) in the work place in this case a
Home Office where Ms. Li also was billeted.

In a faxed letter to an official of the BIR in Manila she reiterated that " I have ceased any association with
Ramon San Diego Bagatsing- Trade name: Raymond Bagatsing as an assigned entity to handle any official
affairs regarding any paralegal or Government transactions, I am seeking the revocation of the SPA notarized
by one Atty. Ramon B. Ruiz because all BIR transactions of Mr. Bagatsing were signed by me.
 

The problem originated from Mr. Bagatsing's Mexican female companion- a self proclaimed composer
apparently from LA, who bullied the lady journalist (3 days after her arrival at the home office in September
2010 until the latter took off last January 25) and bad mouthed some of our movie stars with her comments
Apart from “character assassinating” behind His back when the Actor is out on a shoot.
“The perplexing here is Her motive, she is disturbed I think,” the Author dismissed.

Li and Bagatsing have known each other for 7 or 8 years until issues surfaced from his Mexican Female
companion that ended the  Friendship.
Ms. Li or Urduja as she is fondly called was cought by the Tri-Media 12 years ago when the unpublished
Biography that she wrote about action Superstar Robin Padilla-was leaked to the press before the author
could sanitize her work, she made a comeback in 2003 as writer contributor for Manila Times (via Olympian
Monsour del Rosario's Story "Back in Action") & Philippine Graphic but prefers to write Online nowadays.
She has written Brief Bios of Bencab (Indios Bravos) Rex Publishing, Fashion Designer par excellence Oscar
Peralta (Republika News Magazine) Veteran Actress Celia Rodriguez (Zig-Zag Weekly, Baguio) Celso Ad
Castillo (Sunstar Baguio in collaboration with Vince Cabreza, Philippine Daily Inquirer North Luzon) to name
a few.

Miss Li reiterated that what happened will be charged to experience and that She will stay as far away as
possible from Bagatsing, Althrough she has the utmost respect for the Actor it is best she keeps her
distance.
