RM Awards handed out sans GMA.
(From Philippine Daily Inquirer)
Byline: Dona Z. Pazzibugan
THE PRESTIGIOUS Ramon Magsaysay Awards were handed out last night in formal ceremonies, albeit with the notable absence of the guest of honor, President Macapagal-Arroyo.
It was learned during the ceremony that the President was in Malaca[currency]ang presiding over a Cabinet workshop and that she was to inaugurate a bridge in Mandaluyong City afterward.
The awards, considered Asia's equivalent of the Nobel Prize, were handed out to six of this year's seven awardees who were present and to the representative of the seventh awardee who could not make it to the event.
The ceremonies turned emotional toward the end when the daughter of Dr. Jiang Yanyong of China, who was reportedly barred from leaving the country, came on stage last to tearfully accept her father's award.
Dr. Jiang was the honoree for public service for his courage in speaking out against his government's cover-up of the SARS epidemic in China in 2002.
