Presidential Spox. Harry Roque says long-standing criticisms from VP Leni Robredo, Sen. Franklin Drilon, and a popular musical theater song hinting a 'revolution', have collectively fuelled negative sentiments from Duterte during his address to the nation
President Rodrigo Duterte has had enough from his critics, including opposition leaders, supposedly plotting to unseat him through a"revolution" amid the pandemic, Malacañang said Monday.
"Sunud-sunod ang pagtawag ni Sen. Drilon na failure ang IATF, sinusugan iyan ni VP Leni Robredo, kasabay nung kumakalat na revolution song,"[Translation: Sen. Drilon's consecutive comments that the Inter-Agency Task Force is a failure, along with remarks from VP Leni Robredo, then this circulating revolution song.]
In a radio interview on Sunday, Roque made mention of the Filipino rendition of uprising anthem"Do You Hear the People Sing," a song from West End musical Les Miserables, performed by artists and celebrities in previous anti-government protests.to refine pandemic medical strategies, a move which Duterte interpreted as their way of revolting against the government.
Roque added that frontliners should have aired their sentiments directly to the President instead of letting him be the last person to know about their demands.
