3. Has the most number of bills filed

Despite her battle with lung cancer, Santiago leads in Senate performance after being able to file 1,007 bills and resolutions in 2014. She is known for authoring the Reproductive Health Act; Magna Carta of Women; Cybercrime Law; Anti-Bullying Law;  Kasambahay Law; Biofuels Law; and Philippine Act on Crimes Against International Humanitarian Law, Genocide, and Other Crimes Against Humanity.

4. Corruption is no laughing matter
