SONA 2014: Senate President Franklin M. Drilon and House Speaker Sonny Belmonte listen as President Benigno S. Aquino III delivers his 5th State of the Nation Address (SONA) at the House of Representatives last Monday, July 28, 2014. Reacting to the President’s speech, Drilon said that Mr. Aquino gave a face to the progress that the country had achieved since he assumed office in 2010, and that he agreed with the President’s call to continue what had been started by the administration, since “continuity is very critical for us to be able to achieve our goals."
