Senator Risa Hontiveros slammed President Rody Duterte's push for the revival of the death penalty as the country continues to battle the coronavirus pandemic.

“I think the President economized in spelling out his anti-pandemic program, which is what Filipinos were expecting to hear more from him,” Recto said.

“[H]e could have used that speech to ignite their fighting spirit and light the way forward for them,” he added.Duterte, during his fifth Sona, called on Congress to pass several COVID-related measures.But the President “should have also given marching orders to his men, especially those who are lagging behind in delivering programs to the people,” the senator added.

“In this regard, Cabinet or sub-Cabinet changes should be explored, so that promises made can be fulfilled. It is one way of redeeming the pledges made during the fourth Monday of July. In the battle for national survival, we need the best men up the front,” he added. “There are about 7.3 million workers across the country who lost their jobs during the lockdown, not to mention the estimated 400,000 OFWs who are set to return to the Philippines after they have lost their jobs abroad,” he added.

“Moving our production to a greener economy might be a good direction so that we can also address climate change concerns,” he added. For her part, Senator Risa Hontiveros pointed out the lack of a health and economic roadmap in the President’s speech.
