Sen. Leila de Lima, May Mainit Na Pahayag Para Sa Speech Ni Pangulong Duterte Sa Kaniyang SONA

Sen. Leila de Lima was present on slamming President Rodrigo Duterte for his speech during the fifth State of the Nation Address (SONA) on Monday, saying that Filipinos only gets a slu6gish and useless government to the Duterte administration.

She said,

“Tapang at malasakit ang inasahan ng ating mga kababayan nang inihalal nila si G. Duterte. Sa halip, tamad at inut1l ang gobyernong ating nakuha.”

The Senator said that Duterte's claim that China is "in possession" of the disputed territory is wrong and that it has serious implications for the law especially since the country won the case but we are now the ones withdrawing.

“Bakit tila pinapaboran na naman niya ang China para doon bumili? Ano ang kapalit nito?”


De Lima said the President seems to be letting his people and China rule the country. She further went on that d3ath pen4lty is not helpful since it is very difficult for the administration to conv!ct real cr!min@ls.

She said,

“Malakas ang Pilipinas, kaya nating bumangon. Subalit kung hindi na kaya ng Pangulo na gampanan ang kaniyang tungkulin at ipaglaban ang ating bansa, isang napakabigat na kasalanan sa ating bayan kapag hindi pa siya magbitiw.”
