MANILA - President Rodrigo Duterte on Monday defended the Department of Health over the issue of its procurement of allegedly overpriced personal protective equipment and testing machines needed to

fight the new coronavirus pandemic.

During the same briefing, Department of Budget Management Usec. Lloyd Christopher Lao showed a 9-piece PPE set procured by the government for its frontliners. This kind of coverall, however, is more expensive at P1,100, compared to the locally made ones priced at P850. Senator Panfilo Lacson last Tuesday questioned the DOH and the DBM in a Senate hearing why they bought COVID-19 testing machines and swabbing kits for more than twice the price of similar equipment bought by private companies.

Luhhh! Lakas maka-'Thank you, next'!! Please NO! Duque is also liable, and should also be responsible, he is on the right age to know which is which? Investigation should take place even if as a leader you take ownership of his actions, just right?

Akala ba 'a whiff of corruption and you're out'? Mga DDS, pauto lang kayo mga punyeta kayo.

Taking full responsibility na naman. Ano palagi nalang lusot ang lahat ng nakawan, anomalya at kapalpakan ng mga tao mo dahil inaako mo kasi di ka pwede banggain? That’s Irresponsibility. Corruptions at it’s finest. Tsk

A sweeping statement, to him doesn't mean that much. He's acting like a King! Only the Senate & Congress can clip that power - hope they will do their job in service of Filipino the people

What does that even mean?

Ph Govt: incompent and corruption Citizen: hey thats not right Duterte: forgive us we are doing our best, i take full responsibility. *nothing to see here* RINSE. REPEAT.

You can take the responsibility but not the liability?

Saan kaya pumunta ang pera?

Talagang 'pumatay' na naman? Ok, figure of speech kaso nakakaumay na.

Ganun na lang yun? Ok na kahit mapatunayan na overpriced?

Ill take all the money..

😳🧐😡

Your headline is misleading and trying to frame a bias story. Wag ganun. Umayos kayo parang hindi kayo nag aral ng Journalism.

PinoyAkoBlog So move on na lang ulit ganun?

Kasuhan na ng plunder. Full responsibility pala.

Magsama kayo sa kulungan.

Isa lang ang problema doon ... irresponsible siya

Garapalan na talaga.. Kelan kaya magigising yung ibang Pilipino?😔

If you take full responsibility, take also the consequence.. Parang ano to.

'mangurakot lang kayo, ako bahala sa inyo.' parang ganun eh

Fool's responsibility... putangina mo

Lusot na rin si Duque kagaya ni Sinas.

Here we go again si Mr.responsibility 'I take full responsibility'...ilang kapalpakan ba ang aakuin mo bago tanggalin ang mga yan? para naman alam namin at Di na manggagalaiti sa galit sa mga kumag na Ito?

Fix your headline. You are using media framing bias again.

PinoyAkoBlog Amp ayan na naman sya!

kumita na naman ang mga HINAYUPAK

PinoyAkoBlog 🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡

Pera ng taumbayan winawaldas ninyo. Ayusin naman ninyo!! 🤮🤡😠

PinoyAkoBlog CommOnAudit

'even a wiff of curuption'

Kasama kaya sa order na nakawan mo ?

Nasan na OmbudsmanPh ?

Arbor na ibig sabihin..

PinoyAkoBlog Kaya ang lalakas ng loob at ang kakapal ng mukha , presidente ba naman backer mo.

Usapang lasing na naman. Hilig hilig nya mag sweeping generalizations pero hangggang dun na lang. Ni walang plano. Basta ayaw nya classes yun na yun. D pinagiisipan ano ang plano. Eh kung yung vaccine 5 taon pa?

Arbor na naman po ba? 🤔

Duterte’s favorite line..I will take full responsibility. Sounds like you can’t touch my people regardless. That’s dictatorship

Hanggang dun na lang yun? Nawalan ng malaking halaga ang pondo ng bayan for misuse, arbor na naman? Kaya naman pala ayaw palitan si Duque.

Name the names of company, supplier who overprice their PPE. Or DoH buy PPE for companies that are related to them - KAMAG-ANAK Inc.

What does it mean he takes full responsibility? Just like with Sinas, Duque, Uson, Phil Western Sea, war in drugs?

'I take full responsibility', tapos?

Lagi na Lang I take full responsibility... kumbaga “Arbor ko na yan” sa salitang parak

Sige save all your trolls and your selected people in the govt! Thats your main job as barangay captain ng malacanang!!!

Ha ha ha... Ganito kami sa pilipinas uso ang corrupt 😝🤡😝

This is our price comparison. What a huge difference the government is spending as compared to the OVP.

Di ko talaga to gets. Ang dami na nyang tinanggal na powers ni Duque. Clearly, hindi na nya pinagkakatiwalaan. Bakit ang tibay namputa?

Yeah, you take full responsibility for it. So what happens after that? Inako mo lang pero ano na? Ganun lang? Why don’t heads roll for a change?

Again negativity news na naman ang ABS CBN kahit shutdown na nga...

syempre! kasabwat ka eh! 😂😂😂
