Pasig City Mayor Vico Sotto discouraged his supporters to send him gifts on his birthday.
VICO SOTTO – Turning 32 soon, Mayor Vico Sotto appealed his supporters not send him birthday gifts and just do this instead.
On June 17, Pasig City Mayor Vico Sotto will be turning 32 years old and having hunch already that some would prepare something for his special day, he just recently appealed for them not to push it anymore. Just like what he did last year, instead of giving him gifts, he encouraged people to buy food packs and give it to people in need.
During his live update for Pasigueños last June 14, Monday, he expressed this before ending his video, “Maraming salamat sa mga bumabati sa atin. ‘Wag na po kayo magpadala ng regalo ha?”
And if they really want to do something for him, he just wants them to buy food packs for other people because he is accordingly really not the type to celebrate his own birthday. It will just be another working day for him. He added, “Baka may nagbabalak pa magpadala, huwag na po. Gamitin n’yo na lang po yung pera sa mas nangangailangan. Okay lang po ako.”
Vico is the son of veteran actors Coney Reyes and Vic Sotto. He is the 20th incumbent mayor of Pasig. With his commendable actions against corruption, he was recognized by the United States Department of State as one of 12 recipients of the International Anticorruption Champions Award.
When he ran for mayor, he campaigned on five major platforms: universal healthcare, housing programs, education, public consultation, and anti-corruption efforts.
