Sen. Leila M. de Lima on the call to defund the NTF-ELCAC, Parlade's "satan" remarks, red-tagging of community pantry organizers, and Roque's remarks that WPS not a rich fishing ground

On the call to defund the NTF-ELCAC...

I support the call of my colleagues in the Senate to defund the NTF-ELCAC and I propose that we realign its budget for the 4Ps and other economic amelioration programs for the poor. Gamitin natin ang pondo sa pagkain at kabuhayan kaysa tsismis at pang-iintriga.

On Gen. Parlade's "satan" remarks...

Imposibleng si Satanas ang kumausap kay Patreng, taliwas sa sinabi ni Gen. Parlade. Hindi naman lumalabas ng Malacañang si Satanas.

On red-tagging community pantry organizers...

Sa panahon na marami ang naghihikahos, may mga tao si Duterte na pinapasuweldo ng taumbayan para mang-api sa mahihirap at pahirapan ang mga tumutulong. Ano ba ang ginawa nila Parlade, Badoy, at NTF-ELCAC maliban sa pagkakalat ng tsismis sa mga tumutulong sa nangangailangan?

Busy sa profiling ng mga #CommunityPantry organizers pero bagsak sa contact tracing sa COVID-19 cases? Priorities naman!

On Roque's remarks that WPS is not a rich fishing ground...

Roque knows he is lying. The WPS has been known since the time of Limahong to be one of the world's richest fishing grounds. That is why his dolphin friends are always there.
