MANILA, Philippines — De facto presidential spokesman Harry Roque is looking to hold regular press briefings in Marawi City as rehabilitation is soon to start in the war-torn city. During his first press briefing in Malacañang, Roque said that he plans to hold briefings with the provincial press corps every Wednesday. The newly-appointed presidential spokesperson would have to travel to Marawi City every Tuesday evening in time for his media briefing. Roque's prospective deputy spokesperson, however, has not yet been informed that he is being considered to the post. Based on his pronouncements, Roque would choose a UP Law graduate as his deputy spokesperson.
