The resolution also cited the “Revilla Law,” authored by the seasoned lawmaker, which enables all Senior Citizens to enjoy their cash gifts at an earlier age.

“I am truly thankful to all my townmates in Sablayan, Occidental Mindoro, for taking me in as their adopted son. It's a great honor I'll treasure my whole life through - their acceptance, love, and recognition," Sen. Revilla responded.
