Grace Lee on P-Noy’s critics: "I’d debate [with] them and tell them he’s very smart"

In Wilson Flores’ column, Will Soon Flourish, which was published in the February 5 edition of The Philippine Star, TV host Grace Lee discussed President Noynoy Aquino’s best points. She pointed out: "He's really very intelligent. Whatever we talk about-whether politics, economics, books or music-he's so knowledgeable. He knows a lot."

Lee likewise said: "Whenever some critics say bad things about him, that he's not aggressive or that he's not matalino (intelligent), I'd debate [with] them and tell them he's very smart. In fact, I learn a lot talking to him."

And, since it’s the president is turning 52 this February 8, Lee, who is 29, was asked about the "special birthday gift" she was getting for him. She replied, "I'm still planning to get one, I've not yet decided what gift."
