Go also uploaded another set of photos showing the President choosing yellow jacket shirt in a shopping mall.
“Kahit panay ang batikos ng dilawan kay Tatay Digong, nagawa pa niyang pumili ng damit na kulay yellow!!! (Despite being criticized by yellow group(referring to opposition Liberal Party), Tatay Digong still managed to choose color yellow dress),” Go wrote on Facebook.
