SENATE PANEL OKs GRANTING OF CITIZENSHIP TO MARAÑON, KOUAME
The Senate Committee on Justice and Human Rights, chaired by Senator Richard J. Gordon, approved on Wednesday the bills that seek to grant Philippine citizenship to athletes Bienvenido Morejon Marañon and Kakou Ange Franck Williams Kouame. The process of naturalization, which is a national interest, values the opportunity to become more closely knit to the fabric of Philippine society. We are excited for them to be naturalized because they have proven that they really want to be Filipinos, but they also have to be exemplary, to be an inspiration to the Filipinos, said Gordon.
