Sinalungat ni Communications Assistant Secretary Maria Rafael-Banaag ang tinatawag ng kanyang opisina na "tanging" opisyal na mapagkukunan ng datos tungkol sa giyera laban sa bawal na gamot, ang #RealNumbersPH, nang kanyang itanggi na libu-libo na ang napatay sa kontrobersyal na kampanya ng administrasyong Duterte laban sa iligal na droga.
If the objective of the #Real Numbers press conference last Thursday organized by the Presidential Communications Operations Office was to clarify about the conflicting numbers related to President Duterte’s drug war, it left us more confused.
Communications Assistant Secretary Maria Rafael-Banaag contradicted what her office called the “only” official source of drug war data, #RealNumbersPH, when she denied that tens of thousands have been killed in the Duterte administration’s controversial anti-illegal-drug campaign.
Duterte said 1,000 policemen and soldiers died because of drugs.
Government figures tell a different story.
Ang bilang ng presidente ay salungat sa bilang ng "Real Numbers PH."
