Sara to Gibo: Name pro-China officials in governmentMANILA, Philippines — Vice President Sara Duterte challenged Defense Secretary Gilbert Teodoro to identify the government officials defending China on the West Philippine Sea issue, saying even President Marcos might be suspected to be among those being alluded to.
In an interview yesterday in Davao City, the Vice President was asked to comment on Teodoro’s call for pro-China government officials to resign.
She said to make it clear to all Filipinos, such officials should be named.
“You can’t just release a statement and not name the officials.
He said if the elected and sworn government officials cannot stand by the country’s stance, they should either resign or question this before the Supreme Court.
