If he were former Foreign Affairs Secretary Albert del Rosario, Presidential Spokesman Salvador Panelo would have given his donation directly to Filipino fishermen affected by the Recto Bank incident without publicity.

Panelo stated this after the Department of Foreign Affairs decided to give back to Del Rosario his P500,000 donation for the fishermen.

“Eh kung ako naman si Secretary Del Rosario, eh di binigyan ko ng tig-iisa iyong anong iyon, i-spread mo iyon kung magkano iyong binibigay mo. Pumunta ako doon nang walang nakakaalam at binigyan ko sila, ‘di ba [If I were Secretary Del Rosario, I would have donated it to the fishermen, spread the money. I would have visited them without anyone’s knowledge and just give it to them],” he said in a television interview.

Foreign Affairs Secretary Teodoro Locsin Jr., however, ordered the return of Del Rosario’s donation since the DFA was not authorized to dispense donations.
