The late senator, Miriam Defensor-Santiago saw qualities in her one-time Senate colleague Bongbong Marcos that would make for a fine presidential candidate.
Defensor also said that while he is barred by law, as a government official, to publicly endorse a candidate in the May 2022 polls, he has the right to express in public the qualities and qualifications he requires for a bet.
Defensor, an appointee of President Duterte, is vice-chairman of the Clark Development Corporation (CDC).
What sets Marcos apart from the other May 2022 presidential candidates, according to Defensor, is that the former carries on his sister’s advocacies.
Santiago died at the age of 71 from complications of cancer on September 29, 2016.
