@philippinestar: During a Senate Committee hearing on Justice and Human Rights, Senator Jinggoy Estrada drew criticism for a joke directed at Senator Kiko Pangilinan following his inquiry to Gilas Pilipinas player Elizabeth Jeanette Means. While discussing Means' naturalization and experience living in the Philippines, Estrada asked if she had a Filipino boyfriend before saying, "Maybe Senator Pangilinan might want to apply. Sorry to Sharon." The comment, made during formal proceedings on the athlete's residency, quickly drew flak from netizens who found the remark inappropriate for a legislative hearing. #philippinestar #newsph #senate #jinggoyestrada #kikopangilinan
