Tito Sotto denies copying Kennedy's speech

After his privilege speech over the RH Bill, Senator Tito Sotto hits the internet, once again after he allegedly translated a part of 1966 Kennedy speech without any attribution.

In an interview by ABS-CBN's "Bandila" Sotto said that the speech given to him by a friend and never knew it came from Kennedy.

He added that to be safe he translated it into Filipino.

Para nga safe, tinagalog ko, o sino ngayong kinopyahan ko? Meron ba silang alam na nagtagalog nun? Nakakatawa na sila, sila ang komiko eh, hindi ako.

He noted that critics should just answer what he said that the Philippines is not over-populated and there are already existing laws governing Reproductive Health and Family Planning.
