MANILA, Philippines — Actor and chairman of actors' collective Aktor PH Dingdong Dantes said it is the right time to honor veteran artist and "Star for All Seasons" Vilma Santos-Recto as a National Artist.
Last June 28 in Manila Hotel, Dingdong read out Aktor PH's statement confirming its nomination for Vilma and giving the reasons why she should be considered, namely, her 60 decades in the entertainment industry, which she balanced with being a public servant in Batangas. He even said Vilma stood as a symbol of empowerment and resilience, embodying the strength and spirit of Filipino women by portraying their evolution.
Dingdong later shared that Aktor PH caught wind of a movement to nominate Vilma for National Artist during its second general meeting, leading to its first board resolution, which the actor said was the "easiest" one the group could have done.
