Incoming presidential spokesperson Harry Roque won’t be hurling expletives frequently like President Rodrigo Duterte, but people can expect him to scream a lot because that is what he likes to do. I accepted the post thinking this could be the best avenue for me to influence this administration on matters involving human rights,” he said. When discussing human rights as presidential spokesperson, he said he would first seek the facts from the proper officials. He predicted that he and Mr. Duterte could be “explosive” together. Roque said his warning was intended to convey the message that he won’t just be a spokesperson.
