The Legacy Of Senator Miriam Defensor Santiago That We Will Surely Miss

Senator Miriam Defensor Santiago is known as the “Iron Lady of Asia,” but her fierce exterior did not prevent her from contracting lung cancer back in 2014.

While experiencing the maladies of stage 4 cancer, she joined the recently concluded 2016 Presidential Election and lost, but she sure made us laugh so hard during debates.

Today, 29 September 2016, she finally succumbed to the disease. According to  St. Luke’s Medical Center, she died in her sleep.

She may have left a lot of us downtrodden and teary-eyed but while she was busy showcasing her discourse in the senate or anywhere it was needed, you could somehow say that she amused us, or even made a few minutes of our lives bearable.

Now that she has grown tired of eating death threats for breakfast, here are her 4 legacies that we will surely miss from her.
