Senator Loren Legarda’s Statement on Pacquiao’s Victory

May 8, 2011

MANNY PACQUIAO’S QUICKNESS AND LIGHTNING BLOWS IN THE BOXING RING IS SUPERLATIVE.
Despite his dominance inside the ring, he is, outside the ring, a true gentleman who always remembers his humble beginnings.
Pacquiao is truly a national treasure who not only gives pride to the Filipino but more importantly unites his people from all walks of life.
Filipinos should emulate him and his belief that hardwork and focus in life has its rewards.
We also admire Mosley for his sportsmanship in that he always gives the high five to Manny who in turn returns the gesture every beginning and ending of the boxing round.
Pacquiao continues to remind every Filipino to dare to dream and capture one’s goal.
