The war against drugs has been difficult because of the pandemic, but we continue. Gaya ng pinaalala sa atin ng DDB at PDEA nung nakaraang mga meeting, magkaiba dapat ang tingin at treatment natin sa Light, Moderate, at Severely affected drug users. We will keep working hard to make sure our anti-illegal drug programs cover all.

But the question is, is it because the curve is flattening or is it because we haven't tested enough? So I think before we even talk about lifting quarantine, we have to make sure that this mass testing is already up and running and that...the initial stages of this mass testing has already been completed so that we can make an informed decision of whether we should lift partially, completely or not at all.

Sino ba naman ako para mag-grade ng national ano, kasi kahit naman kami dito sa local, kami dito sa LGU, hindi naman rin perpekto yung response namin. I will be the first to admit that we have lapses now and then, we make mistakes. So now, I don't think it's appropriate for me to pass judgement on another agency, another group. The focus should be, let's continue to improve. Let's admit that nothing is perfect. Our system is not perfect. Our response is not perfect--from the barangay, to the city, to all levels of government and even the private sector. Let's just continue to do whatever we can. Let's help each other. Let's work as one to fight this pandemic.

Kung gusto nating protektahan ang kalikasan, ang bawat isang mamayan ay merong parte dito. Kahit 99% sa atin ay may ginagawang parte, kung may 1% na pabaya o hindi tumutulong para alagaan ang kalikasan, wala ding mangyayari.

Dati, lagi silang tinatakot na makikita kung sino ang binoboto nila at 'di na sila ire-renew kapag do'n sila sa ‘kalaban. Walang politika sa pagdedesisyon natin dito. Pinapatay natin ang palakasan o ‘patronage’ sa pamahalaan.

Patronage Politics

Hindi pa rin tayo gagastos ng malaki. Tandaan—ang gagastos ng malaki sa kampanya, ay malaki rin ang babawiin. Ok lang tawagin akong kuripot, at least hindi magnanakaw. Ang importante, nagagamit sa tama at (nang) buo ang pera ng taumbayan.
