This was sought by Quezon City 5th District Rep. Alfred Vargas under his six-page House Resolution No. 1431, urging the 307-man House of Representatives to recommend to the Cultural Center of the Philippines (CCP) and the National Commission for Culture and the Arts (NCAA) the conferment of the National Artist Award to Lee.
“Mr. Ricky Lee has proven, beyond accolades and awards, his worthiness to be called a National Artist because of his body of works, his ethics, and his virtues,” the House leader said.
“He has remained humble amidst the many recognitions that he has received. Mr. Ricky Lee has become a timeless role model for many artists in different fields for his craft, and has served as an inspiration to many Filipinos for his nationalism and contributions to nation-building,” he added.

Dagupan (CNN Philippines Life) With Filipino stories dominating the screens every Christmas season, the Metro Manila Film Festival (MMFF) is historically home to some of mainstream Filipino cinema’s best and worst.
This year, the MMFF expands its film selection to ten films instead of the usual eight, and offers even Filipinos outside of the country a chance to celebrate with the community, via online streaming as the country is still in quarantine.
