The funeral procedure for the late liberal lawmaker has been elevated to a parliamentary-level funeral ceremony,... and put all members of the parliament to serve as funeral commissioners.
The ceremony has begun at around 10 a.m. and the participants there will spend the time to remember the three-term lawmaker's achievements in life.
