Vice President Sara Duterte attended Eastern Samar’s celebration of its 57th Founding Anniversary on November 9.
She said the celebration is proof of Eastern Samar's resilience from the challenges of disaster and security.
In her message, she called on parents not to allow their children to join the New People's Army because it will destroy their future.
The Vice President also reminded residents about being prepared against calamities.
“And as the country continues to face extreme weather conditions brought on by climate change, the challenge is for us to strengthen our collective commitment to creating a climate-smart citizenry that understands the climate situation and what must be done to build resilient homes and communities.”
