President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. on Saturday said he was speaking, not only as the country’s leader but also “as a father,” as he called for stronger efforts to protect the Filipino children.
“Today, I speak not only as president, but also as a father, as a fellow Filipino, and as someone who is deeply concerned about the safety of our children,” the chief executive said in his latest vlog.
The president cited the fatal shooting involving students in Tacloban City, two separate stabbings inside schools in Cavite, and the drowning of two student-athletes during a team-building activity.
