Former House Speaker Jose de Venecia Jr. launched his autobiography, “Global Filipino,” Monday night at the National Bookstore in the Podium. Three former presidents — all those who came after Marcos (Aquino, Ramos and Estrada) — attended. Cory Aquino wore red instead of her signature yellow, though.
Cory apologized for Edsa 2001, and Estrada, who was in the audience, later said it was not just a vindication for him, it was the best gift for this Christmas. Ramos came after Cory and Erap had left.
Guess who was waiting to have his copy signed by the author? Columnist Alex Magno.
