Statement of Sen. Nancy Binay on the Nov 27 KBP-sponsored debate

In the light of early attempts to set the stage for the upcoming event as unfavorably biased for Vice President Jejomar Binay, we respect the Vice President's decision to beg off from the scheduled debate.

This is an answered prayer and a welcome relief for the family, although we expect that our detractors will continue to gloat on the situation.

From here, we shall move forward and the Vice President will continue to serve the Filipino people in the responsibilities entrusted to him, unencumbered by partisan attacks.
