Senator Antonio Trillanes criticised President Rodrigo Duterte's absence in some activities in the ASEAN Summit in Singapore.


According to Senator Trillanes, he sees two reasons; it's either the President slept causing him to miss the activities or the President is experiencing a serious illness making him unable to fulfill his duties for the country.

It is also possible that the President is irresponsible adds Trillanes.

For Senator Panfilo Lacson, the reason for the "power nap" is shallow. He thinks there are other reasons or maybe the President intended to be absent.
