Statement of OVP Spokesperson, Atty. Barry Gutierrez on recent Pulse Asia survey
VP Leni's numbers are respectable considering that she has been focused on working on Covid-19 response initiatives and has paid no attention to the frantic positioning for 2022 at all. Yung iba diyan, deny ng deny na tatakbo, pero nagkalat naman ang mukha at pangalan sa mga billboard at tarp. Si VP Leni, trabaho lang ang tutok. We remain confident, when, and if, she decides to run for President, the numbers will be there. Hindi pa nagsisimula ang laban.

Sana iyong gobyerno natin willing din na magpakita ng kaunting tapang regarding the issue, kasi talagang habang umaatras tayo, lalo...

Statement of Vice President Leni Robredo on the 5th Anniversary of the Philippine Victory at the Permanent Court of Arbitration in the Hague
Today marks 5 years of missed opportunities regarding the West Philippine Sea.
On July 12, 2016, the Permanent Court of Arbitration in the Hague enshrined in international law the validity of our claims in the West Philippine Sea. Since then, national leadership has yet to fully flex the ruling as an instrument to pursue our national interests, failing to invoke it in strong enough terms in the forums that matter most. Our fisherfolk remain unable to ente...

Nakikiramay ako sa mga pamilya at mahal sa buhay ng mga nasawi sa pagbagsak ng C-130 aircraft kaninang tanghali sa Jolo, Sulu. Nagpapasalamat ako sa balitang naligtas na ang ilan sa mga pasahero, at ipinagdarasal ko ang kaligtasan ng mga hindi pa natatagpuan.
