The Vice President was thankful to Aquino for helping with the relief operations.
“Nung nalaman niya po na magre-relief operations dito sa Negros Occidental, kagabi po nag-promise siya na sasama siya ngayon and sumama nga siya,” Robredo said through her office, also today.
(When Aquino found out last night that we were going to have relief operations here in Negros Occidental, she promised that she would come with us. She did.)
Aquino earlier commended Robredo and Sen. Manny Pacquiao in an Instagram post last Sunday, Dec. 19. She said she was glad that the Vice President and the boxer-Senator teamed up to help victims.
The TV host also shared that despite being on vacation with her fiancé Mel Sarmiento, she was aware of the disaster caused by the super typhoon. She said that she has been on non-stop communication with her friends about the typhoon and how they could help, specifically actress Angel Locsin.
The super typhoon made its first landfall on Siargao last Thursday, Dec. 16. It caused devastation to other parts of Visayas and Mindanao over the next few days. Celebrities including Andi Eigenmann and Slater Young have also been vocal about appealing for aid to help victims. JB
