Bilyonaryo Robina Gokongwei-Pe shared her debt of gratitude to Senator Panfilo Lacson after he announced his plan to “go home” following an unsuccessful presidential bid.
The big boss of Universal Robina Corp. met up with the presidential bet and her rescuer from decades ago.
“Thank you Sen. Ping Lacson for your 50 years of government service,” she said, handing over a copy of two books and a copy of the article about the kidnapping incident she figured in.
“Thank you for rescuing my cousin Celina and myself in August 1981 after we were kidnapped for seven days by a gang headed by the wayward son of a judge. I still have newspaper clippings and a diary about the incident,” Robina wrote.
For her, Lacson will forever be a hero.
“I refused to read them again for the past 40 years but decided to finally bring them out of my baul after you announced that you just want to go home and spend time with your family. Time to relax, White Knight!”
