MANILA, Philippines — Vice President Sara Duterte is leaving it up to Congress to decide if her office will get to keep the P500 million confidential fund allotted in the 2023 budget.

 

Appearing during the Senate finance panel’s deliberation on the proposed budget of the Office of the Vice President, Duterte was asked by Senate Minority Leader Aquilino Pimentel III how she could justify the confidential funds her office is asking.

 

But instead of responding directly, Duterte echoed Sen. Juan Edgardo Angara, who presided over the meeting, and said that the OVP under previous administrations also received confidential funds.
