Kapuso star Janine Gutierrez showed her dismay with President Rodrigo Duterte’s response to COVID-19.
On her Twitter account, the Kapuso actress posted her sentiments on how the government has responded to the pandemic crisis.
“Hay. Nakakalungkot. Kung essay yun sa exam, hindi papasa. Wala naman yatang nasagot sa mga tanong ng bayan. I appreciate the visibility but that means nothing without transparency. Anong plano? Hindi naman pwedeng tiwala lang.”

This was her tweet after waiting for President Duterte’s speech that was broadcast at 11 pm. The president was supposed to report where the emergency fund of P275B was going to be used and how it will be allotted. Unfortunately, he was unable to provide a detailed plan on how to contain the pandemic.
For Janine, the President’s speech lacked content, comparing it to an essay exam.
“Alam mo naman tayo. Umaasa parin kahit nararamdaman mo namang magmumukha ka lang tanga.”

Presidential spokesman Salvador Panelo declared Monday that Duterte would address the nation at 4 p.m. “tentatively”, but the speech was broadcast at around 11 p.m.
The speech also failed to answer a lot of questions about concrete plans to deal with the pandemic.
