Sara Duterte: ‘Give Malacañang floodwater to drink'
Vice President Sara Duterte has criticized the government's supposed lack of disaster preparedness, which she said contributed to the flooding in several areas in the country amid the persistent rains. Duterte said that while on a personal trip at The Hague, Netherlands, she told her detained father, former president Rodrigo Duterte, about the current flooding situation in the Philippines. 'Napag-kwentuhan namin na taon-taon na lang na gano'n, pero wala talagang mga proyekto na nag-a-address sa baha. Ibig sabihin, inaantay na lang natin dumating 'yung bagyo at 'yung baha at maging biktima na naman tayo ulit ng baha taon taon,' she said in an interview on Monday. (We've discussed the flooding situation in the country which happens every year, but no projects were being implemented to address the problem. This means that we're just waiting for the typhoon and the flood to come and we let ourselves become victims of floods every year.) The Vice President was asked about the earlier suggestion of President Ferdinand 'Bongbong' Marcos Jr. to store floodwater and reuse it for agricultural purposes. 'Ipunin po natin lahat tapos i-deliver po natin sa Malacañang para po may mainom siya,' she said. (Let's collect it and deliver it to Malacañang so that he can drink it.) 'Ganoon na po ang gagawin natin—ipunin natin lahat tapos i-deliver po natin sa Malacañang para meron silang mainom doon,' she added. (That's what we'll do—we'll collect floodwater and then deliver it to Malacañang so that they have something to drink.) During Marcos' visit to the Department of Social Welfare And Development (DSWD)-National Resource Operations Center last Friday, July 18, the President tried drinking water from the agency's family water filtration kit—which could be used in areas with limited access to clean water in times of disasters. ''Yung tinesting namin, 'yun 'yung balde na mayroong filter na kahit anong klaseng tubig, 'wag lang maalat, pero kahit na iba, basta fresh water, kahit hindi masyadong malinis, pwedeng ilagay sa balde, pwedeng inumin. Idadaan lang doon sa filter na 'yun,' Marcos said. (We tested the basin that has a filter. Any kind of water—fresh water not salt water—even if it's not clean, you can put it in the basin and you can drink it. It just has to go through the filter.) Dolomite beach VP Sara also slammed the congressional inquiry into the Manila Bay Dolomite Beach Project that was proposed before the House of Representatives. She was referring to House Resolution 56 filed by Bicol Saro party-list Representatve Terry Ridon, who said that the Metropolitan Manila Development Authority (MMDA), through its Chairman Don Artes, identified the Manila Bay Dolomite Beach Project as a direct contributor to the persistent flooding in the City of Manila. 'Hindi na ako magtataka kung lahat ng ginawa o lahat ng ginagawa ni dating pangulong Duterte ay imbestigahan ng administrasyon ngayon. At hindi na rin tayo magtataka kung lahat noong mga nangyayari ay sasabihin nila na kaparte 'yan ng war on drugs at kasalanan 'yan ni president Duterte,' she said. (I'll not be surprised if everything that former president Duterte did or is doing will be investigated by the current administration. I will also not be surprised if they say that everything that is happening now is connected to the war on drugs and was the fault of former president Duterte.) She also dismissed the move as merely 'political scapegoating.' 'Ibig sabihin, ayaw nila tanggapin 'yung obligasyon, ayaw nila ibigay 'yung accountability sa mga problema. Tulad ng pagbaha, dapat kasi ang sasabihin mo niyan ay ano ba ang dahilan kung bakit nagbabaha? Ano ba ang plano natin para sa susunod na bagyo ay hindi na babaha? At paano ba natin i-implement 'yung plano natin na paniguraduhin natin na hindi na nasa-stranded o hindi na nabibiktima ng pagbaha 'yung mga tao? Ganon dapat ang sagot ng gobyerno. Hindi 'yung magtuturo sila ng ibang tao kasi nililihis nila 'yung attention ng tao sa totoong problema,' she continued. (This means that they don't want to accept their obligation and give accountability for the problems. When it comes to flooding, they should be asking what is the reason for such and how can we plan for it? How do we implement our plan to ensure that people will no longer be stranded or become victims of flooding? That's what the government should answer. They don't need to pinpoint because they only divert people's attention to the real problem.) SONA 2025 Further, Duterte maintained that she has no obligation to listen to the fourth State of the Nation Address of Marcos on July 28. This, as House spokesperson Princess Abante said that the lower chamber remains open to all government officials for the SONA, including the Vice President. The House official had emphasized the importance of Duterte's role in witnessing the President's annual report before the Congress and the Filipinos. 'Wala tayong batas na nagsasabi na tungkulin ng mga Pilipino ang makinig sa Presidente. Ang nasa batas natin nakalagay, tungkulin ng Presidente ang magbigay sa ating mga Pilipino kung ano 'yung estado ng ating bansa. Siya 'yung may tungkulin, tayo walang tungkulin makinig,' Duterte said. (We have no law that says that Filipinos are mandated to listen to the President. The law states that it is the duty of the President to deliver to Filipinos what the state of our country is. He is the one who has the duty, we have no duty to listen to him.) 'We have the right to listen or to not listen. There is no law mandating us to listen to the President give his State of the Nation Address,' she added. The Vice President previously said that she has no intention of attending Marcos' fourth SONA. Last year, she also skipped the presidential speech. 2028 plans Sara Duterte also disclosed that her father Rodrigo has signified his support for her should she decide to run for presidency in the 2028 elections. 'Sabi niya, kung gusto mong tumakbo, tumakbo ka…Sabi niya, ako ang pinakaunang mag-contribute at tumulong sa iyo. Sabi niya, sana lang ay nasa labas na ako sa kampanya kasi gusto kong mangampanya. Pero sabi niya, 'pag sinabi mo sa akin na tatakbo ka…ako 'yung unang tutulong,' she said, recalling her conversation with her father during her visit. (He told me that if I want to run, then I should said that he'll be the first to contribute and help me. He just wished that he'll already be released once the campaign begins because he wants to campaign for me. But he told me that if I'm going to run, then he'll be the first to help.) The Duterte patriarch was arrested in the Philippines by local authorities on March 11, based on a warrant of arrest issued by the International Criminal Court. He is currently detained in the Scheveningen Prison in The Hague for charges of crimes against humanity for the extrajudicial killings during the drug war. — BM, GMA Integrated News
