God works in mysterious ways. When we first stared to plan a partylist for the Liberals sectors, I took it upon myself to lead organizing it. Never did I dream I’ll be running with two people I admire most. But here we are, your 3 nominees. Titindig muli. TapatSaPilipino #ML2025

Remembering the horrors and atrocities of Marcos Sr’s martial law regime is crucial because: 1. to forget is to dishonor those who sacrificed their lives to bring democracy back to the country;

Remembering the dark years of martial law reminds us of the fragility of democracy and the need for vigilance to protect it even as we demand accountability from those in power.

It is by remembering the brutality and injustice perpetrated during martial law that we ensure that such a dark chapter is never repeated. Never again, never forget!

This is a 1965 picture of me with my parents and siblings. I was 23 years old and a 4th year student at the UP College of Law. My brother, Hermon Lagman (2nd row, seated, rightmost), was then a freshman also at the UP College of Law.

He was the first lawyer to be forcibly disappeared during martial law on May 11, 1977. Kneeling in front was a young and smiling Popoy.

MY PRESS STATEMENT ON THE CHANGING OF THE DATE OF THIS YEAR’S NINOY AQUINO DAY Ninoy Aquino’s death must be celebrated on the day of his assassination which falls on August 21. No holiday economics or domestic tourism boost can hold a candle to Ninoy’s heroism.

“Provided, That for movable holidays, the President shall issue a proclamation, at least six months prior to the holiday concerned, the specific date that shall be declared as a nonworking day”.

The change of date in Ninoy Aquino’s death celebration this year is obviously in violation of the law as it should have been proclaimed by the President six (6) months ago. ###
