The offer of Finance Secretary Carlos Dominguez III to provide a special briefing comes after he clashed with Senator Imee Marcos over Masagana 99, the failed rice program of dictator Ferdinand Marcos.

"As chair of the Economic Development Cluster of the Duterte administration, I acknowledge the questions and concerns you raised regarding the Philippine economy during the Senate committee of the whole hearing on the government's response to the COVID-19 pandemic last May 20, 2020," Dominguez said.

She went on to suggest the revival of Masagana 99, the failed rice program of her father, the late dictator Ferdinand Marcos. "Shame on you, Secretary Dominguez, give the Filipino farmers some credit! When supported by sound government policy and defended against rampant importation, we can feed ourselves. Give the Filipino farmer a chance!" Marcos said in a statement after the hearing.
