President Rodrigo Duterte has advised Senator Manny Pacquiao to study the issue on the West Philippine Sea first following the senator’s criticisms of Duterte’s foreign policy.
“It’s about foreign policy. I would not want to degrade him but next time he should, mag-aral ka muna nang husto bago ka pumasok,” Duterte told Pastor Apollo Quiboloy in an exclusive interview.

“Apparently this guy has a very shallow knowledge,” Duterte added.
Earlier, the senator said that Duterte’s stand on China has softened after winning the presidency in 2016.

The senator even recalled Duterte’s promise to go to the West Philippine Sea via jetski.
“Narinig natin bago mag-election, sa pangangampanya, nung sinabi niya na mag-jet ski siya, dala yung watawat ng Pilipinas doon, e siyempre, kahit ako sa puso ko, ito na yung iboboto ko dahil ito yung dapat na presidente, kailangan natin, na pinaglalaban yung bansa natin,” Pacquiao said. (TDT)
