Bungay would state that she would voice and affirm her support for the SOGIE Equality Bill, emphasizing a communal responsibility to uphold equality. [12]
If I would be given 30 minutes to talk to the public, I would like to talk about the passing of the SOGIE SC bill. Because, in celebrations such as pageants, this community has contributed so much. And in this regard, we can give back to them by supporting this cause because as an individual, it is our responsibility that we ensure that everyone is treated equally despite their SOGIE. [13]
