President Rodrigo Duterte starts his address with a word of "caution" to Vice President Leni Robredo: She made a blunder, a big one, and she practically lied, making her incapable of truth. 'Yung pakana niya na wala ako sa bagyo, I was here, I was attending the ASEAN Summit.
Duterte: Remember kayong mga Pilipino, sinabi ko sa inyo, prankahan sa press conference, that I'm a night person. I work on the state government documents sa gabi.
