It is not a big deal for Sarangani Province Rep. Manny Pacquiao if the House of Representatives (HOR) website incorrectly stated that he is a 68-year-old married to another woman.
“Ngayon ko lang nalaman. Kung na-correct naman, okey naman,” Pacquiao said on Tuesday after he was informed about the glitches found on his profile page.
The website named a certain Elizabeth Salvacion as his wife rather than Jinkee Pacquiao. It also indicated that his birthday was May 28, 1942 instead of December 17, 1978
Hours after the House Secretary General’s office’s attention was called to the errors, Pacquiao’s page in the HOR website was cleared of all data.
The 7-division world champion also said that there is no need for the HOR to apologize for the erroneous date of birth and name of spouse.
“Hindi okey lang, nagkamali lang naman eh,” the Filipino boxing superstar stated.
“Alam ng mga tao kung ilang taon ako, kung saan nakatira, kung sino ang asawa ko at ilan ang anak ko,” added the father of four – Jimuel, Michael, Princess and Queen Elizabeth.
House Secretary-General Marilyn Barua-Yap, meantime, said that her office is looking into the matter.
“Those are basic but very important data that we should be very careful about. We always double check our data. We are checking because it’s unfair to Rep. Pacquiao and his family and the people of Sarangani,” she said in a statement.
Barua-Yap clarified that her office has not released data on the personal information submitted by HOR members for website posting.
She also stressed that her office could not be the source of wrong information. “We don’t release any data on the personal information of House members without their consent,” she reasoned.
