Senate President Migz Zubiri criticizes the Philippine Retirement Authority chief for sending multiple text messages to senators, urging them to prioritize the Department of Tourism budget.

It seemed just like any other budget deliberation that stretched into the following day. That is, until senators divulged that Philippine Retirement Authority (PRA) chief Cynthia Carrion “lectured” and even “insulted” some of them through a barrage of text messages in her bid to make them prioritize the Department of Tourism (DOT) budget
