As she constantly finds herself a target of malicious stories and “fake news,” Vice President Leni Robredo on Friday expressed support to Singapore’s call for action against misinformation and urged the administration to “take concrete steps” to address this problem.
Robredo expressed support for Singapore’s call for Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) member-states to “follow through on the bloc’s collective commitment to fight misinformation in the region.”
She noted that the fight against misinformation is “particularly important for us in the Philippines, as we continue to see fake news proliferate, impairing public discourse and contributing to the spread of false and inaccurate information among our people.”
Believing that “a well-informed citizenry is of utmost importance to our democracy,” Robredo urged the administration of President Rodrigo Duterte to “take concrete steps to address” the problem on misinformation. “This calls on all of us to stand against misinformation and fight to ensure that truth will always have space in our country’s conversations,” she added.
