MANILA — Senator Imee Marcos expressed her profound support for the proposed discussion between President Ferdinand “Bongbong” Marcos Jr. and former President Rodrigo Duterte regarding the investigation involving Sonshine Media Network International (SMNI).

“Now is the time! As I’ve mentioned, who’s afraid of SMNI? Or perhaps, who’s afraid of [former] President Duterte? He is a revered and beloved leader whose wise counsel will always be beneficial to the country,” remarked Senator Marcos.

“There’s nothing wrong with listening to good advice, especially when it comes from a former President,” the lady lawmaker added.

Earlier, the Presidential Communications Office (PCO) stated that President Marcos is always available to meet with Duterte.

“President Marcos is consistently available to former President Duterte. The President will contact him shortly to inquire about his interest in a meeting,” stated Communications Secretary Cheloy Velicaria-Garafil.
