Manila, Philippines – Malacañang has expressed confidence that the public will view the government’s actions in a positive light once the full details surrounding the arrest of former President Rodrigo Duterte are made public.
Palace Press Officer and Presidential Communications Office (PCO) Undersecretary Cherie Castro stated that the ongoing discourse should not be limited to the former president’s current predicament, which she described as merely the conclusion of a larger narrative.
“The public needs to see the full picture, not just the emotional response to Duterte’s situation,” Castro said. “Understanding the reasons behind these events is crucial for the people to make an informed judgment.”
Duterte’s arrest has sparked strong reactions from his supporters, while critics argue that it is a step towards accountability. As the case unfolds, the government remains firm in its position that due process is being followed.
