Senate President Vicente Sotto III questioned on Monday the silence of Health Secretary Francisco Duque III amid the new corruption issues hounding the Philippine Health Insurance Corporation .Sotto said the Duque, who also sits as chairman of the PhilHealth Board of Directors, should have commented or at least issued a statement of concern on the claims of corruption hurled against the state insurer.
“Nakakapagtataka na ikaw ay on top of the PhilHealth, ikaw ang Secretary of Health, dapat meron kang concern, meron kang statement about the issues of corruption in the PhilHealth itself .
Sotto recalled the President’s promise to remove government officials who are involved in corruption, even “just a whiff” of it.
