MANILA, Philippines — Senator Aquilino “Koko” Pimentel III criticized on Saturday Vice President Sara Duterte’s “designated survivor” remark as a bad joke.

According to Pimentel, Duterte should not have made that joke in the context of the upcoming State of the Nation Address (Sona) of President Ferdinand “Bongbong” Marcos Jr.

“She should not have done that in the context of Sona,” Pimentel said in a radio interview on DWIZ 882. “She should not have joked about that. That’s not a good joke.”

Earlier, Duterte said that she will not attend Marcos’s third Sona, and added that she was the “designated survivor.”

The Philippines does not have a similar law mandating a designated survivor.
