Duterte appeals to courts not to derail infra projects 68 SHARES Share it! Share TweetBy Genalyn KabilingThe courts should “think a thousand times” before issuing temporary restraining order (TROs) against government programs especially infrastructure projects, President Duterte appealed last Wednesday. The TROs issued by the courts, however, tend to derail the implementation of the infrastructure projects for years, according to the President. Duterte urged the courts to use their heads and “decide properly” on TRO petitions that might add to the burden of the nation. Duterte also urged the the courts to avoid issuing TRO against his impending declaration, saying this might only “exacerbate the situation.”
