While waiting for President Benigno Simeon Aquino III to arrive at the Immaculate Conception Cathedral in Cotabato City on 11 March 2014 for a mass, Cardinal Orlando Quevedo shows the clothes he wore at the Vatican when he was elevated to cardinal by the Pope. He jokes about it being an expensive “kurtina,” adding that people can take photo of it as long as they will not approach him because “he was already sanitized by the President’s men.” It was also his 75h birthday.
