RevGov not Duterte’s priority: Palace

By Prince Golez

President Rodrigo Duterte’s plan to set up a revolutionary government is not a priority of the administration during the coronavirus disease (Covid-19) pandemic, Malacañang said Sunday.

In a statement, Presidential Spokesperson Harry Roque said the government is focused on efforts effectively responding to the Covid-19 crisis.

“The call to establish a revolutionary government came from a private group and the organizers are free to publicly express their opinion,” said Roque.

“The focus, however, of the Administration is addressing Covid-19 and mitigating its socioeconomic impact,” he added.

Maintaining public health while gradually opening up the local economy, according to him, is Duterte’s “most pressing and most urgent concern” that requires full attention.

Hundreds of people, including those who participated online, assembled at the Clark Freeport yesterday to support a Duterte-led revolutionary government and a shift to federalism until the chief executive ends his term by 2022.
