STATEMENT OF SEN. LOREN LEGARDA
ON PRESS SECRETARY CERGE REMONDE

I grieve over the untimely death of Press Secretary Cerge Remonde. While he had a most difficult job as spokesman of the administration, he had performed his task with flair, eloquence and dedication, providing the public with a clear and concise articulation of the viewpoints, positions and pronouncements of the administration.

He was a loyal and capable spokesman of the government. In a democracy, it is important that the two sides or many sides of any question pertaining to public matters should be presented openly in public. He had done this competently. He also had a clean slate in public service.

We will sorely miss him.
