ON THE RESIGNATION OF VP SARA AS DEPED SECRETARY

 

I respect the decision of Vice President Duterte and wish her well.

I believe her resignation was inevitable from the time her father, FPRRD, and her siblings and allies started attacking PBBM and members of the First Family. Its inevitability became more pronounced when she was already silent and not expressing her support on certain policy issues such as the West Philippine Sea, the Bagong Pilipinas Hymn, the Quiboloy cases and attempted arrest, etc.

As the Vice President, she has every right to have policy differences with the President and I believe that people love and respect her precisely for that… for having and fighting for what she believes in and for her own beliefs.

I wish her well in this, her new journey as she continues to serve our people as our Vice President.
