Vice President Sara Duterte will have a budget for next year that is bigger than most of the outlays allocated to her predecessor, Leni Robredo, during the latter’s six-year tenure, a senior leader of the House of Representatives said.
Last year, her second full year, VP Duterte had P1.874 billion, while Robredo had P543.9 million in 2018, he said. He pointed out that the House decision to reduce the OVP budget is consistent with the vision of Senate Minority Leader Aquilino Pimentel III on the principal job and duty of the Vice President.
“Hindi na niya role na magbigay ng mga school bags. Hindi na niya role na magpatakbo ng mga bus. Sayang oras niya eh,” Pimentel said.
