The Hon. Leila De Lima will take time off her busy schedule as the Philippines' secretary of justice to deliver the keynote address at the gala night and dinner of Magbinaydan 2011 on February 9, 2011. The event will take place at another Iriga landmark, the newly-built Iriga Plaza Hotel Convention center.
Leila De Lima, the feisty former chairperson of the Commission on Human Rights, is considered by many as the most valuable appointment to the cabinet of President Noynoy Aquino and is seen as a hefty boost to the new government’s reformist policies and cleanup drive against graft and corruption.
An Irigueño through and through, Ms. De Lima is the eldest daughter of former Commission on Elections Commissioner Vicente De Lima and Norma Magistrado. She is a high school graduate (1976), class valedictorian, of Iriga City’s La Consolacion College.
