MANILA – Senate President Francis Escudero on Thursday addressed the viral video that showed First Lady Liza Marcos sipping from his wine glass, which she later handed to him.
The incident happened during the Vin d’Honneur for Independence Day held in Malacañang on Wednesday.
"I consider waiting on a lady (first or otherwise) to be gentlemanly," Escudero said in a statement.
"Maaaring sabihin ng iba na maka-luma o parang ‘under’ pero para sakin, hindi kailanman magiging maka-luma o di uso, ano man ang itawag ng iba, ang pagiging maginoo at pakikipag-kapwa tao," he added.
