Former Senator and avid critic of President
Duterte, Antonio Trillanes IV is challenging President Duterte for his “ivory
tower policy” in executing the enhanced community quarantine in Luzon.
In his latest Facebook post, Trillanes is
questioning Duterte’s decision why he has allowed some private establishments to
remain operational but he ordered to stop the operation of public
transportation.
“Duterte
allowed hospitals, pharmacies, banks, and supermarkets (plus POGOs and flights
to and from China) to operate, yet he prohibited PUVs. So, he assumed na lahat
ng mga empleyado rito ay may sariling kotse? Paki ayos naman ulit,” Trillanes said.
Trillanes believes that it was the obligation
of the opposition to call the attention of Duterte for his “incompetence” so he
could remedy any failure.
“The opposition has been quietly cooperating for the sake of this collective effort
to contain the virus. But it is still our obligation to call out Duterte for
his incompetence, like this ivory tower policy. Remember, kundi sya pupunahin,
hindi sya magaayos at magpapatuloy ang kapalpakan,” he added.
The chief executive recently declared an
enhanced community quarantine throughout Luzon as the number of coronaviruses
infections continue to rise.
The Department of Health ordered a strict protocol involves in-home quarantine for Luzon residents, suspension of public
transportation, and travel restrictions in the main island to minimize
contamination.
