As part of Father’s Day tribute, seasoned broadcast journalist Korina Sanchez on Sunday, June 19, explained that her husband, former Department of Interior and Local Government Secretary Mar Roxas, has now embraced the most important job in the world—being a father.
Roxas, in 2010, ran for the vice-presidential position but lost to Jejomar Binay. In 2016, He filed his certificate of candidacy for president but was defeated by the now outgoing President Rodrigo Duterte.
Sanchez, through her Instagram, explained that her husband is fulfilling his fatherly duties to their children, Paolo, Pepe, and Pilar.
“A lot of people ask about why Mar isn’t in politics now. I don’t bother asking him because I know. Although I do remind him that he has done SO much for this country out of the best years of his life as it is. All 30 or so years in office.
“So now he is again a father —- to twin 3-year-old firecrackers Pepe en Pilar. I’m convinced. Out of all that, he has contributed the best way he knows how for the good of this country and its people, his children Paolo, Pepe en Pilar are yet his most priceless legacy for this planet. And this is now his happiest and most important position to date.”
