Senator Jinggoy Ejercito Estrada takes up in the plenary what he described as overbearing attitude of Philippine Retirement Authority (PRA) general manager and CEO Cynthia Lagdameo Carrion for sending text messages to senators telling them to “to stop asking questions” on the proposed budget of other departments and prioritize instead the budget request of the Department of Tourism (DOT) for 2024. Estrada described Carrion’s action unethical for her to send text messages to senators telling them to speed up the interpellations on the budget of other departments to give way to the DOT.
