Liberal Party chairman and Albay Rep. Edcel Lagman said on Thursday that Vice President Sara Duterte's trip to Germany showed her lack of empathy and concern for the victims of Super Typhoon Carina.
Lagman 'shocked' by Vice President Duterte's 'lack of empathy' for typhoon victims
“Vice President Sara Duterte left hundreds of thousands of Filipinos in fear and despair over the onslaught of Super Typhoon Carina when she flew to Germany with her family last Wednesday for an apparent vacation,” Lagman said.
“Her lack of empathy and concern is appalling as Metro Manila and many parts of the country are in a state of emergency,” he added.
While Duterte is traveling abroad, Lagman said her predecessor Leni Robredo is helping the victims.
