After his two terms at the Senate of the Philippines, former
opposition Sen. Antonio Trillanes IV will be pursuing a teaching career at the
University of the Philippines Diliman and Ateneo de Manila University.
In an exclusive interview with ANC’s “Early Edition”,
the former Magdalo revealed his new profession after being a lawmaker.
"It’s a more relaxed life after the Senate and right
now I’m preparing for my teacher work this coming semester," he said
Trillanes, one of the most vocal critics of President
Rodrigo Duterte also revealed that he will be teaching Public Policy in UP
Diliman.
The senator disclosed that he has a master's degree from
the National College of Public Administration and Governance.
When asked if he feels more vulnerable to legal actions of
the government against him now that he is a private citizen, he said;
"I never felt not being vulnerable under this admin.
Since 2016 when Duterte assumed office I already had I think 10-14 cases.
Whether I’m a senator or not it didn’t stop Mr. Duterte from persecuting people
like me from the opposition,"
"Duterte is very consistent. He needs to put away any
semblance of opposition. That’s the kind of governance he thrives in."
Trillanes said
