Jaja Santiago said her Japanese citizenship remains in process and she relished her fruitful experience training as part of Japan’s national women’s volleyball pool.
The 6-foot-5 middle blocker, who started her Japanese naturalization bid last year, said her citizenship is still ongoing while receiving help from Philippine National Volleyball Federation president Tats Suzara.
“Actually, walang nakakaalam kung nasaan na siya. But it’s in the process. Hopefully, ma-approve. Sir Tats is helping me though,” Santiago told reporters Wednesday.
The longtime Japan V.League Asian import arrived in Manila two days ago, attending the Chery Tiggo practice on Wednesday and supporting the National University Lady Bulldogs with her husband Taka Minowa at Smart Araneta Coliseum.
