Chief Presidential Legal Counsel Salvador Panelo’s claim on Vice President Leni Robredo’s exit from President Rodrigo Duterte’s Cabinet in 2016 lacks context.
Bahagi na ng bokabularyo ni Pangulong Rodrigo Duterte ang martial law mula nang maluklok sa Malacanang noong 2016, at mukhang pati si Chief Presidential Legal Counsel Salvador Panelo ay nabighani sa batas militar.
Martial law has been a part of President Rodrigo Duterte’s vocabulary since he assumed power in 2016, and Chief Presidential Legal Counsel Salvador Panelo appears to share this fascination.
Mali si Presidential Spokesperson Salvador Panelo sa pagsabing ang pagbaba ng kaso ng COVID-19 sa South Korea ay dahil sa “total lockdown” na ipinatupad ng bansa.
Presidential Spokesperson Salvador Panelo wrongfully attributed the decline of new COVID-19 cases in South Korea to the country’s imposition of a “total lockdown.”
Kabaligtaran sa mga pahayag ni Pangulong Rodrigo Duterte mula pa nang mahalal na pangulo ang sinabi ni Presidential Spokesperson Salvador Panelo na ayaw ng pangulo na masara ang broadcast network ABS-CBN.
Panelo's claim contradicts Duterte's statements in previous speeches and interviews.
Mali ang sinabi ni Presidential Spokesperson Salvador Panelo na si Pangulong Rodrigo Duterte ay palaging nag-iiwan ng isang "bintanang" bukas para sa usapang pangkapayapaan sa Communist Party of the Philippines (CPP) at founding chair na si Jose Maria Sison.
Contrary to Panelo's claim, Duterte was not always "open" to talking peace with the CPP-NPA-NDF.
From calling it “the right step,” Presidential Spokesperson Salvador Panelo now calls Vice President Leni Robredo’s meeting with officials from the United States (US) and United Nations (UN) as “missteps” that led to her ouster as co-chair of the government’s anti-illegal drug efforts.
