The Vice President has now made it public that
she would continue to stand up to President Rodrigo Duterte if he would again
speak ill towards her.
Leni Robredo made the remark when asked in an
interview to explain why she called the President a misogynist after the latter
asked in a nationally televised briefing what time she went home at night and
where she would sleep after a long tiring day.
“Kapag binastos ako, lalaban ako. Kapag binastos mo ako lalaban ako kasi
kailangan kong maging halimbawa, eh. Kailangan ko maging halimbawa sa ibang mga
kababaihan na nababastos din,” Robredo said.

“Kung sa pambabastos hahayaan ko iyon, ano iyong
mensaheng binibigay ko? Na okay lang iyon? Na okay lang iyon dahil lalaki kayo?
Na okay lang iyon dahil Pangulo kayo? Hindi dapat ganoon,” she added.
The Vice President said such action of the
President sets a bad example and should not be allowed to pass unchecked.
“Hindi magandang halimbawa kahit iyon iyong natural mo. Kahit iyon iyong
natural mo, hindi iyon katanggap-tanggap kasi maraming tao iyong
nag-a-appreciate sa iyo, nag-a-idolize sa iyo. Tinuturuan mo ng mga bagay na
una, kabastusan,” Robredo said.
“Tinuturuan mo ng mga bagay na hindi maganda. Eh
makikita natin ito, Deo, dahil iyon siya, iyong mga supporters na kumakampi sa
kaniya ganiyan din. Iyong mga posts sa social media talagang lahat kabastusan,”
she added.
Robredo said she welcomes criticisms because such
is a part of being a politician, but reminded the President that such
criticisms should be rooted on facts, not low blows.
“Hindi masama na mag-criticize. Tingin ko,
bahagi iyan ng demokrasya. Hindi masama na punahin mo iyong public officials
kasi kailangan siya maging accountable. Pero kung iyong pagpupuna mo dinadaan
mo sa una, kabastusan; pangalawa, kasinungalingan, mali iyon,” Robredo said.
