?We have been watching you and followed you in every fight, including your plans to become a Congressman in the future,? Son wrote the Pacman.
?In every fight you have, we have been ecstatic with the excitement that you brought and made us proud to be Filipino. You inspire us, you give us hope, and you incarnate our dreams with faith in God. What a Great Example!," Son added further.
