PROF. Anna Malindog Uy raised concerns about the value of engaging with an outgoing vice president, questioning the significance of such talks in light of their impending departure and electoral defeat.
“Bakit ka makikipag-usap sa vice president na outgoing when you are the head of state of the country?
“You don’t go down to that level. You may call her in a personal capacity as your friend, but as a matter of protocol, hindi. As much as possible, you avoid it kasi dapat pantay kayo ng level dahil representation iyon ng bansa mo.”
“Is there any value for the Philippines talking to an outgoing and a loser vice president in the election?” ayon kay Prof. Anna Malindog-Uy, Geopolitical Analyst.
