Vice President Sara Z. Duterte commends the San Jose del Monte Police for their swift action that led to the capture of an individual who falsely represented the OVP to illegally solicit money in San Jose del Monte, Bulacan on September 6.
The Vice President also expresses her gratitude to San Jose del Monte City Mayor Arthur Robes and his staff for alerting the police about the operations of Joel Calis.
Had it not been immediately reported and acted upon by authorities, the scam carried out by Calis would have emboldened more fraudulent money-making schemes and other illegal acts that could n...

Today, I hosted a sit-down meeting with the Chief of Staff of the Armed Forces of the Philippines and the commanders of the AFP’s major services — the Philippine Army, Philippine Air Force, and the Philippine Navy; together with the chiefs and official representatives of the Philippine National Police, the Bureau of Fire Management, Bureau of Jail Management and Penology, and officials from the Office of the Vice President and the Department of Education.

When I was a child, my father gave me sound advice — never listen to attacks hurled against our family. And I took it to heart during my VP campaign. I never shared my spotlight with Walden Bello despite the offensives he launched against me. I was focused on drilling my education platform in all the rallies that I could muster. In fact, I have never filed a libel case in my life. Criticisms do not deserve even a backward glance because the accomplishments of Davao City under my leadership are already set in stone.

I always have time for Makabayan bloc. The laugh that I get reading Makabayan bloc’s hypocritical and dramatically rehashed statements — while thinking about how the Filipino people rejected the bid of Bayan Muna and two other Makabayan bloc partylist groups to once again infiltrate Congress and legitimize their existence while pretending that we do not know about their ‘love affair’ with the NPA, the NDFP and the CPP — is a way to de-stress from all the challenges the Department of Education and the government need to address without the help of Makabayan bloc, of course.
