PCOO highlights Duterte legacies despite the pandemic


 ZAMBOANGA CITY, Aug 11 (PIA) – The Presidential Communications Operations Office (PCOO) continues to deliver and communicate the legacies of President Rodrigo Roa Duterte given the limitations of COVID-19 pandemic.

PCOO Secretary Martin Andanar believes that delivering this information is strategic in achieving the Duterte administration’s goals and legacy, especially in winning the hearts of the people.

“We in the PCOO have been able to magnify and disseminate the policies and the achievements of the Duterte administration throughout its term through these facets of public service,” Sec. Andanar said during the live radio interview with Emedia Production Network today (Aug. 11).


Sec. Andanar also added that the delivery of right information of the services and programs of the administration is one of the biggest factors why the trust and confidence of the people to President Duterte remains.

Given the pandemic, PCOO continues to deliver information to the public through going digital that is able to reach the majority of the nation. “The best plan of action is to be present wherever your audience is,” Sec. Andanar said.

PCOO strengthens the government media, the conduct of virtual pressers, reporting tours, multimedia shows like the Cabinet Report, Network Briefing News, Laging Handa Public Briefing, CORDS Podcast, and Laging Handa Dokyu to reach their audience.

Sec. Andanar also emphasized the advocacy on Freedom of Information (FOI) which helps improve the capability of the people to regularly check the transactions of the government and to help fight graft and corruption. The FOI also aims to strengthen the Anti Red-Tape Act.

“We cannot eliminate corruption overnight, this is a systematic problem that requires systematic solution, we need a whole-of-nation approach,” he said. (RVC/MLE/PIA9-Zamboanga City)
