Nancy Binay to wear ‘decent terno’ in Sona
For a change, Senator Nancy Binay said she would wear a “decent” terno when she attends the President’s state of the nation address (Sona) on July 23.
“Hindi na ako magmumukhang mag-e-exercise (I wouldn’t look like I would go out for an exercise),” Binay told reporters on Monday, “Mukha na akong kagalang-galang (I would look decent).”
Asked why she wanted to look decent in this year’s Sona, the senator said: “Eh kasi tapos na yung six years ko. Di ba nag-umpisa naman akong kagalang-galang? Tapusin naman nating kagalang-galang (My six-year term is ending. I started out with a decent look so I’ll end it with a decent look).”
Binay’s first six-year term will expire in 2019 but the senator is still qualified to seek re-election next year.
With the powder blue terno that she plans to wear, Binay is confident that she would be free from bashing, at least during the Sona this year.
