SPRUCING UP FOR SONA. Preparations at the House of Representatives in Batasang Pambansa Complex in Quezon City are in full swing for President Marcos’ third State of the Nation Address on July 22. Officials from the Office of the President have made an initial walk-through while the House’s Inter-Parliamentary and Public Affairs Department said room designations for all guests have been finalized.
“Our security personnel alone are in the hundreds. The Congress personnel is at 2,000 to 3,000, then the guests are around 2,000. That’s just about right,” Velasco said. “They really want to hear the President or they want to be involved in the state affairs. Being invited to the SONA is an honor,” Velasco said.
