MANILA, Philippines — The Office of the Vice President (OVP) unveiled its commemorative coffee-table book that chronicles its history and legacy as it celebrates its 90th year. "First In Line" captures the the institution’s journey from the Commonwealth era to the present through archival images and narratives tracing. It also highlighted how the Office adopted during periods of war, political upheaval, and democratic transition, often redefining its relevance in the process. The book was written by Manila Times columnist Yen Makabenta and printed by Studio 5 Designs. The Office of the Vice President, created under the 1935 Constitution as a constitutional safeguard, has spent nine decades evolving alongside the nation it has served. "Once largely viewed as a contingency office, the Vice Presidency has gradually carved out a more visible role shaped by history, politics, and public expectation," the OVP said. Last November, Vice President Sara Duterte underscored the need for the OVP to modernize to meet the demands of contemporary public service. She added that it was using its inspiration in the past to build a stronger future as it commits to efforts to ensure stability in the office, including the creation of an OVP Museum, its permanent office, and the creation of an OVP Charter
