"[It is] very timely and historic as it is a measure
needed by our nation," Sen. Francis Tolentino told reporters in a separate
occasion.
"It just goes to show that a stable peace and order
climate should go hand [in hand] with economic rejuvenation post-COVID-19. We
should all support this measure," he said.
Sen.
Panfilo “Ping” Lacson, who co-authored the measure in the Senate, said credit
goes to President Duterte.
"With
all the pressure coming from different directions against the signing of the
Anti-Terrorism Bill into law, at the end of the day, it is his strong political

cannot imagine this measure being signed under another administration. If only
for this, I take my hat off to the president," he said.
