A bill seeking to establish the Magna Carta for Filipino seafarers hurdled the Senate plenary on Wednesday following hours-long debates.
Senate President Juan Miguel “Migz” Zubiri had to suspend the session a number of times as tensions ran high. "Mr. President, tapos na po yung period of interpellation natin. Period of amendments na ito.," said Tulfo. "Humahaba lang po tayo, Mr. President, your honor. Kung gusto niyo po maglatag na ako ng banig dito tsaka unan," Tulfo added, which prompted Zubiri to temporarily suspend the deliberations.
