snoop1130 Posted September 6, 2022 Share Posted September 6, 2022 MANILA, Philippines — Executive Secretary Vic Rodriguez showed up at the Senate less than an hour after the Blue Ribbon Committee voted to subpoena him after two straight absences at its probe into the sugar importation fiasco. "I would like to sincerely apologize if we have to resort to the issuance of a subpoena to compel my presence today. I have no intention whatsoever to disrespect the honorable members of the Senate and the Senate as an institution. And that’s why I learned when a subpoena was issued, I don’t want to, but I have to inform His Excellency [President Ferdinand Marcos Jr.] even if he is on his state visit," Rodriguez told the Senate Blue Ribbon Committee. This came after Rodriguez first said that he would not be attending the hearings moving forward after the chief executive ordered him to snub the Senate investigation.
