Honoring a Fellow Albayano: Majority Leader Juan Miguel “Migz” F. Zubiri honors the late Sen. Victor S. Ziga as a fellow Albayano who was a brilliant legislator and a man of service. In his eulogy for Ziga during the necrological service held at the Senate Session Hall Wednesday, February 10, 2021, Zubiri said Ziga was behind landmark legislations like the Government Assistance to Students and Teachers in Private Education, the Local Government Code of 1991, and the Magna Carta of Public Health Workers. “Sen. Victor Ziga was a doer through and through; a workhorse who got things done without needing much fanfare. Instead his legacy persists through the work he has left behind… Even beyond his political career, he devoted himself to helping the Filipino in any way he could--medical missions, relief operations, emergency response,” Zubiri said.
