We completely missed this. Department of Interior and Local Government (DILG) Secretary Mar Roxas marked his 58th birthday on Wed, May 13.
During the gathering for the said occasion, Roxas was seen with Philippine National Police (PNP) officials led by officer-in-charge Deputy Director General Leonardo Espina and deputy chief for operations Deputy Director General Marcelo Garbo.
“Roxas was initially hesitant to share his birthday wish, saying that he wanted to keep it a secret,” reports Cecille Suerte Felipe in The Philippine Star.
However, when reporters kept asking him to give a statement, Roxas finally relented and said, “what I wish for the nation is my wish for myself: Lots of love, more laughter, at magandang bukas (a great future).”
