MANILA, Philippines — Ilocos Norte Rep. Imelda Romualdez-Marcos has filed a motion before the Sandiganbayan Fifth Division seeking the court’s permission for her five-day official trip to Phnom Penh, Cambodia.
Robert Sison, Marcos counsel, said that the 81-year-old widow of former President Ferdinand Marcos is part of the country’s three-member delegation to the ASEAN Inter-Parliamentary Assembly (AIPA) Seminar on “Accelerating the Achievement of MDG-5, through the Role of Women Parliamentarians” to be held on March 9 to 12, 2011 at the Inter-continental Hotel in Phnom Penh.
Rep. Marcos is required to secure a travel permit each time she has to leave the country because of her 10 remaining active graft cases before the Sandiganbayan.
