Nababahala si House Majority Leader Manuel Jose Dalipe sa “worrisome silence” ni Vice President Sara Duterte kaugnay ng mariin at malinaw na paninindigan ni President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. sa usapin ng West Philippine Sea (WPS) at sa pagbabawal sa Philippine Offshore Gaming Operators (POGO) sa bansa, na binanggit ng huli sa State of the Nation Address (SONA) nito noong Hulyo 22.
“We should all be on the same boat in supporting the President, especially in relation to the West Philippine Sea issue and the controversies surrounding the POGO operations… Yet, the Vice President’s utter silence on these crucial issues raises questions about her loyalty to the country,” ani Dalipe.
“While everyone is cheering the President for his decisive actions on the West Philippine Sea and POGO, Vice President Duterte’s lack of response is indeed troubling,” sabi ni Dalipe.
“Her silence not only undermines the collective efforts of our government but also casts doubt on her commitment to the nation’s best interests,” dagdag ng kongresista, iginiit na napakahalaga ng suporta ng Bise Presidente sa Pangulo.
“In these challenging times, it is imperative that we stand together and support the President’s policies that aim to safeguard our sovereignty and ensure the welfare of our people. The Vice President’s support is crucial in reinforcing our national unity and determination to address these pressing concerns,” sabi pa ni Dalipe.
