Sara Duterte’s Ban On Motorcades

MANILA, Philippines — Vice presidential candidate Sen. Vicente “Tito” Sotto III on Tuesday said they are not affected by Davao mayor and fellow aspirant Sara Duterte-Carpio’s order to ban motorcades in her city.

When asked if he and his running mate Sen. Panfilo “Ping” Lacson will be affected by Duterte-Carpio’s order, Sotto said in an ambush interview in Quezon City: “Not at all.”

“Wala namang kaming balak mag-motorcade eh, wala kaming balak mag-motorcade kahit saan,” Sotto pointed out.

(We don’t have plans to conduct a motorcade, we don’t plan to have a motorcade anywhere.)

Sotto previously said that they opt not to conduct motorcades since they want to reach out and talk to the public.

Duterte-Carpio, through an executive order released on Monday, prohibited all kinds of political caravans and motorcades in Davao City, citing rising fuel prices.
