Vilma Santos and Nora Aunor since then have been competing in the Showbiz Industry for being the Star for all Season and Superstar respectively.
Currently, Bacolod Representative Anthony Golez, Jr created a House Resolution 2317 to proclaim Nora Aunor as the National Artist. He said the the country that we are in today have been facing various hindrances and trials in terms of oil or fuel rises and other commodities, proclaiming Nora Aunor as the national artists would feel good to all the people and to give hope too.
On the other hand, the Quezon Reprensetative Erin Tanada is also supporting the resolution to give Batangas Governor Vilma Santos as a National Arits.
“So, para at least maiwasan na rin natin ang intrigahan mula sa parehong panig, e, [na] sa tingin ko naman karapat-dapat [kilalanin].
“Pareho silang magaling na artista,” pagtukoy niya kina Vilma at Nora.
However, Senator Jinggoy Estrada also said that we should recognize first the Commedy King Dolphy to be the National Artists. Nora, DOlphy, Vilma and many other famous artists during that generation have contributed much in the Showbiz Industry.
“Si Dolphy matagal na dapat,” sabi ng senador.
“Dapat igawad na sa kanya yung pagiging National Artist habang buhay pa siya, hindi natin alam.
“Kasi hindi na maganda kalagayan niya.
“Sana maigawad sa kanya ng Aquino administration ang pagiging National Artist.”
Dagdag pa niya, “Maraming haligi ng pelikulang Pilipino—nandiyan sina Erap, FPJ, Nora, at Vilma.
“Sila na may mga naiambag sa pelikulang Pilipino ay deserving naman lahat na maging National Artist, katulad na nga ni FPJ.”
He also added the Dolphy is still the number one Comedy King and No one beats it until now so should be given a new title.
The final decision is still coming from the president.
