President Rodrigo Duterte has discouraged children from asking gifts from their godparents this holiday season.
Doing so could put them at risk for increased exposure to coronavirus disease, Duterte said in televised address late Wednesday.
“There is always a time. Now is the time to be… hindi naman sedentary but iyong kalma muna. Tutal marami pa namang Pasko eh. Huwag na kayong maghingi-hingi ng mga ninong, ninang kasi kaawa ‘yung mga ano. Tapos maglabas ‘yung ninang mo pati ninong, mamili diyan sa kung saan-saan. Idamay mo lang,” he said.
Instead, the President urged them to pray for the country and for all those who are sick and experiencing hunger.
“Maghingi ka, hopefully in God’s own time, maybe next December. In the meantime, what should we do is to pray for our country and prepare for those who are sick. At saka kung kakain ka, ako kung magkain ako, when I say my prayer, ‘God, remember those who have the food but who cannot eat’. Iyon,” he concluded.
