MANILA, Philippines — Outgoing Senator Antonio Trillanes IV on Tuesday likened President Rodrigo Duterte’s latest promise to solve the country’s traffic woes to a “budol-budol” scam. “Kung budol-budol, ilang beses na tayong na budol-budol hindi pa rin tayo natuto,” Trillanes said. Trillanes recalled Duterte’s allegation that he had a bank account in Singapore. The Chief Executive, however, later admitted that he just invented the bank account number of the senator.
