MANILA, Philippines — The team of Ferdinand "Bongbong" Marcos Jr., presumptive president-elect, sees no problem with Vice President Leni Robredo's plan to launch a non-governmental organization when her term of office ends as laws and the Constitution allow her to.

 

Robredo over the weekend announced the plan to organize an Angat Buhay NGO to continue providing assistance and services to Filipinos after she steps down from office on June 30. NGOs do not, as some social media users asserted, mean "New Government Organization."

 

"Do you right, exercise your right under the Constitution and other prevailing laws within bounds of law, respect the laws, respect the Constitution and we will be okay," Vic Rodriguez, Marcos’ spokesperson, told ABS-CBN’s TeleRadyo on Monday.
