Q: Reaction sa Senate Media mock polls
Villar: Nais ko munang magpasalamat sa resulta ng mock polls dito sa Senado. Natutuwa ako dahil maganda naman ang pagtingin sa atin ng Senate media. Mahalaga kasi iyan. Alam natin na matatalino ang Senate media. Malaking bagay iyan. Basta sa akin, I’ve always looked at the Senate media as our friends.
Q: May napili ka nang maging VP?
Villar: Ang napagkasunduan ng partido ay maga-announce tayo first or second week of November. Nagse-zero in na tayo sa ilang mga kandidato. Mahalaga kasi na ang prinsipyo niya kung sino man siya at ang prinsipyo ko ay magkatugma para mas malakas at mas makakatulong tayo sa ating bansa. Iyon ang primary consideration natin.

Senator to tell Vidal: I didn’t co-author bill
Posted on | October 22, 2009 | No Comments
October 22, 2009 – Sen. Benigno “Noynoy” Aquino III yesterday said he never co-authored the reproductive health bill.
He told CEBU DAILY NEWS that the misunderstanding may have stemmed from his chairmanship of the Senate committee on local government where Senate Bill No. 3122 was referred to. But Aquino said he didn’t even sign the committee report because he wanted to interpolate and ask questions about certain provisions of the bill. “Somebody just assumed that I signed the committee report… and that I co-authored the bill because the (name) of the committee chairman has prominence in the report,” he added.

PRESIDENTIABLE Manny Villar advised more than 4,000 students to be entrepreneurs rather than strive to pursue a career.
“You should not all lose hope. Even if you are not rich, not smart or physically disabled, do not worry. If you have nothing, you have nothing to lose. And that is one ingredient on becoming a perfect entrepreneur,” Villar said.
Villar privately met with officials of University of Mindanao before speaking at the ‘Yes! Young Entrepreneur’s Summit’ yesterday afternoon at the school’s Embassy gym along Bolton Street. The forum was attended by students from other schools as well.

Q. Mukhang tuloy-tuloy ang pagtulong na ginagawa ng OFW Helpline nyo at may grupo na naman na 80 OFWs na dumating nung isang araw?
Villar: Oo nga, natutuwa nga akong ibalita nitong nakaraang araw lang binigyan ko ng salo-salo sa bahay ko ang mga pinauwi ko na 82 na ofws na kadarating lang mula sa middle east, iba’t ibang kaso ito, may pinahirapan, may di pinasusuweldo, may inabuso, may biktima ng illegal recruitement at talaga namang nakakataba ng puso na makita silang kapiling na ulit ang kani-kanilang pamilya. Sinagot ko yung kanilang mga pamasahe, penalty at iba pang gastusin, maging yung pag-aasikaso ng mga papeles nila. Marami tayong kasamang ahensya ng gobyerno subalit wala silang budget dito kaya ako na lang ang nagbayad, pero matutuwa ka naman kapag nakita mo yung kaligayahan ng pamilya nila nung sila ay nakita.
Q. Very emotional yung pagkikita nung mga magulang at OFWs
