The world's most famous boxer, Manny "Pacman" Pacquiao, is serving his country, this time as people's representative. The Sarangani congressman attended the session on reproductive health (RH) and his stand is against the contraceptives despite of his wife's claim of being a contraceptive (pill) user. Pacquiao cleared the issue saying that Jinkee used to take pills but she already stopped taking them years ago. Pacquiao even quoted a Bible phrase, "go to the world and multiply", which he said describes his stand on RH bill.
Senator Miriam Defensor Santiago told Pacquiao not to make further statements about RH bill after the Sarangani congressman literally interpreted a phrase from the Bible. Pacquiao's mother, known as Mommy Dionisia, reacted to the Senator's statements against her son. Mommy D said the Senator should respect Pacquiao as an elected congressman and that he has a right to express his opposition on the RH bill.
