Senator Gringo Honasan has advised the head of the Commission on Human Rights (CHR) “not to waste too much time” debating with President Rodrigo Duterte. ADVERTISEMENT“I directly communicated this to chairman Gascon, and I will do this publicly again,” Honasan said, addressing Atty. “Please request him not to waste too much time debating with the President on human rights issues,” the senator went on. But Honasan quickly clarified that he was not stopping the CHR from raising the human rights issue, noting that it is also important. “But your job is really to work together as a team and address the moral issue,” the senator stressed.
