Sponsorship Speech for Senate Resolution 660 Resolution Honoring and Commending Mayor Vico Sotto by Senator Panfilo M. Lacson
Last Wednesday, February 24, while waiting in the Senate lounge for our 51st Senate session to start, I asked the Senate President if we can be co-authors in a yet-to-be drafted Senate resolution to honor and recognize Pasig City Mayor Vico Sotto for receiving an award given by the US State Department as one of the world s 12 anti-corruption champions. The Senate President s reluctant response was: Sige, pero co-author lang ako. Ikaw ang principal author and sponsor kasi, alam mo na. with a chuckle. I knew exactly what he was trying to say, Mr. President. It is that little, big thing called sense of propriety, better understood by Filipinos as delicadeza. All of us inside this hall as well as those attending online know that Mayor Vico is the Senate President s nephew, being his equally famous brother Vic s offspring.
