President Rodrigo Duterte has ordered soldiers and cops to shoot troublemakers during the enhanced community quarantine. NBI Anti-Graft Division obliges Pasig City Mayor Vico Sotto to explain his side on a possible violation of the BAHO Act.
Quezon City constituents have not yet received relief goods from Mayor Joy Belmonte even as Luzon has already entered the third week of the enhanced community quarantine.
These are some of the tragedies experienced by the Filipinos due to pandemic COVID-19. Had there been a concrete plan to deal with the pandemic and a travel ban imposed before the disease reached our shores, then the country might not be in the dilemma it finds itself in right now.
Kapamilya actor Enchong Dee wonder if politicians’ behavior would be different if the pandemic had hit during an election.
I’m curious, if this outbreak is happening during a campain election period, may pagkakaiba kaya sa mga nangyayari ngayon or sa mga pananalita ng mga “Public Servants” ??

Netizens believe that if were an election period, relief goods would have reached people much much sooner.
For sure malaki ang pagkakaiba, mabilis pa sa alas quatro ang pagbibigay ng pera at mga relief goods, yun ay dahil may kailangan sila sa mga botante.

Most of them might visit remote places not because concern sila, but the bec. of the vote.

Netizens also said goods would have carried the name of the politician.
Mas maglalakihan ang mga pangalan nila sa mga “tulong/donations” kuno siguro nila, where in fact e pera ng taumbayan naman talaga ang pondong ginamit sa again, “tulong/donations” ng mga kagalang galang nating mga pinuno.

When the Duterte administration’s anti-corruption body wanted Vice President Leni Robredo to be investigated over her efforts in distributing relief goods and free transportation, Enchong suggested that President should not be selective and thus, his subordinates must also be investigated, especially they have now the power to manage the 275 billion emergency funds.
Investigate your own minions Mr. Duterte. 275B someone is set for life FO SHO 😏 https://t.co/F94KqheE7D

Enchong’s tweet received a negative response from netizens who are allegedly supporters of President Rodrigo Duterte. Here are the tweets:
