BACOLOD CITY, Negros Occidental, Philippines – Fifth District Representative Emilio Bernardino Yulo III said the decision of President Marcos Jr to appoint a sugar leader who did not campaign for him must be respected.
“Respect the wisdom of the appointing authority of our president,” Yulo said when asked for a reaction on the appointment by Marcos of Gerardo Valderrama as a member of the country’s Sugar Board.
“We know how many problems there are and how complicated it is so we hope that he delivers amidst all of the challenges,” Yulo said when asked what he expects from Valderrama.
