Malacañang has again confirmed that President Rodrigo R. Duterte will be physically present at the Batasang Pambansa for his 5th State of the Nation Address (SONA).
The Chief Executive will personally go the venue even after another employee of the House of Representatives has tested positive for Corona Virus Disease 2019 (COVID-19).
According to Presidential Spokesperson Harry Roque, the President “may be vulnerable” but he has to fulfill his duties. There is still no final list of those who will be physically attending in the said venue. However, the Palace has assured that it will release the list to the public, once finalized.
