NEED TO ENACT KASAMBAHAY BILL: Senate President Pro Tempore Jinggoy Ejercito Estrada takes the floor and urges his colleagues in the House of Representatives to urgently pass their version of the proposed Batas Kasambahay. In his privilege speech, the Chairman of the Senate Committee on Labor, Employment and Human Resources Development cites the case of Bonita Baran who suffered from inhumane treatment and physical abuse from her employer, to illustrate the harrowing conditions other household domestic workers may experience. Seated in the front row of the gallery behind the Senator is Bonita (second from left), her sister Olivia, mother Erlinda and uncle Rosalio.
