Victor Ziga, John Osmeña, and Dante Jimenez were truly great men in their own right. When I learned last week that they had passed away one after the other, I knew our country had lost outstanding Filipinos whose legacy of public service was indeed remarkable.
All three were dear to me as they touched my life one way or the other. Ziga and Osmeña were my former colleagues in the Senate during the late 1980s and early 1990s. Jimenez, as we all know, was a prominent anti-crime advocate, apparently the nation’s staunchest crusader against high crimes and corruption.
