President Ferdinand R. Marcos Jr. thanked the Malacañang Press Corps (MPC) on Saturday night, Dec. 10, for their support in public information.
In a dinner hosted for the MPC for the holiday, Marcos lauded the journalists’ hard work in delivering the news to the public.
“So this is our version for all of you who have been so supportive… I know you have been working very, very hard to get the news out so that people know what’s going on, what we are doing here,” Marcos said.
“It is always important to take… especially pagka ganito na ano, ganito na holiday lalo na sa Pinoy, ang Pasko, it’s always important to take a step back a little bit, recharge and think again about what we are doing and that’s what Christmas is to me,” he added.
Marcos is set to leave for Brussels, Belgium on Sunday, Dec. 11, to attend the Association of Southeast Asian Nations-European Union (ASEAN-EU) Commemorative Summit on Dec. 14.
The President is expected to stay in Belgium from Dec. 12 to 14.
