MANILA, Philippines — The Palace will wait for the recommendation of National Security Adviser Hermogenes Esperon Jr. and the Department of National Defense regarding the r;ecent issues surrounding Chinese telecommunications giant Huawei. “I suppose the Department of National Defense as well as the national security adviser are studying that matter. US President Donald Trump has placed Huawei on the entity list, limiting the business US brands could do with Huawei. PNP chief Gen. Oscar Albayalde earlier tasked the police Anti-Cybercrime Group (ACG) to probe reports that Beijing is using Huawei to spy on other countries. Banac also said there is no proof that government websites had been hacked using Huawei products.
