Sara Duterte Slams Inept Marcos Gov’t:
Vice President Sara Duterte is dismayed with how the Marcos government is running the country and the resulting poor state of affairs.
Duterte issued a stinging rebuke of the government’s alleged shortcomings, lamenting the nation’s lingering poverty and other hardships.
In a statement on Facebook, she took a swipe at dishonest and selfish government leaders, the absence of a national flood master plan, the poor healthcare system. She also criticized government’s alleged deference to foreign bodies like the ICC, asserting that Filipinos deserve much better.
“Ang Pilipinas ay pinamumunuan dapat ng mga taong may malasakit at kakayanan para itaguyod ang malinis na pamahalaan at pag-unlad ng bayan. Subalit ang Pilipinas ngayon ay pinamumunuan ng mga taong walang katapatan sa trabahong sinumpaan. Kaya ang tanging nananaig sa atin ay takot para sa kinabukasan ng ating mga anak,” she said.
She expressed frustration with the country’s poor state under the current leadership, saying many Filipinos are still poor and hungry due to certain power-hungry politikos.
“Mga kaigsuonan ko, sa sipag at galing ng Pilipino, nangunguna dapat ang Pilipinas sa ating mga karatig bansa. Subalit ang Pilipinas ngayon ay patuloy na nagugutom, naghihirap, at lumulubog nang dahil sa mga mapanlinlang para maupo sa pwesto,” she said.
“Pagod na pagod na tayong makita ang bayan na napag-iiwanan, tinatrato na parang walang halaga, hindi kaaya-aya, at sunod-sunuran sa ibang lahi,” she said.
The country’s veep called for better governance to uplift the lives of Filipinos.
“We, Filipinos, deserve more than what we are hearing and seeing from the government right now. We, Filipinos, deserve better. We, Filipinos, should be the best,” she said.
The Vice President issued the statement in response to the security support promised by several Muslim tribes. She appreciated the gesture, but stressed the country’s security is more important.
Duterte earlier saw her security detail reduced after PNP chief Rommel Marbil reassigned 75 cops guarding her to Metro Manila for peace and order efforts.
