President Marcos yesterday refused to comment on a question about former president Rodrigo Duterte, citing the need to focus on rebuilding areas devastated by Severe Tropical Storm Kristine.

Facing criticisms of allowing former president Rodrigo Duterte to overtake the Senate’s probe into the drug war, Senate Minority Leader Aquilino Pimentel III said that they were no longer friends.

UBRA Chairman Emeritus Gregorio San Diego said that farmgate prices for whole chickens are below the estimated production costs of P105 to P110 per kilogram, leaving broiler producers with losses of around P25 to P30 per kilogram of chicken.

A committee of the House of Representatives has requested the Department of Justice (DOJ) to issue a lookout bulletin covering seven officials in the office of Vice President Sara Duterte as the panel resumes its probe on her alleged misuse of funds.
