STATEMENT OF SENATOR CHIZ ESCUDERO ON THE
DEATH OF SENATOR MIRIAM DEFENSOR-SANTIAGO

Our family, especially Heart and I, express our deepest sympathies to the bereaved family of our very good friend, former Senator Miriam Defensor-Santiago.

Today, we join the Filipino people in mourning the loss of one of the finest leaders of our country, a pillar of Philippine politics, the Iron Lady of Asia, a public servant, and a friend.

She may have left us, but with a great legacy that will challenge the nation to become better for the future of the coming generations, something that Senator Miriam has long been fighting for.
