So, okay, the President is not in coma as spread by Communist Party of the Philippines founding Chairman Jose Maria Sison in social media Aug. 19.

From Netherlands, Sison said his source who was at the national convention of the San Beda Law fraternity Lex Talionis Fraternitas on Saturday said “the darkness of his (Duterte) face had become aggravated from its appearance the other day and that his walk and handshake had become more unstable.”

In the latest still-to-be-verified update from his source, Sison said, “Duterte has gone into coma since the afternoon or evening of today, Sunday, August 19. “

Monday evening, Bong Go, special assistant to the President, released a video of the President in what looks like a Chinese restaurant with former Climate Change Commission commissioner Frances Veronica Victorio.

But the video did not dispel rumors about the President’s health. In fact, it raised more questions to an observant eye.

First, he didn’t look well; there are dark discolorations on his ashen face as observed by Sison’s informant. What are those?

He was seated so we could not ascertain if he was strong enough to walk without assistance.

Second, the 4.47 minute video is out of focus. A broadcast journalist found it strange because Go’s videos are always of good quality. Was it deliberately made out of focus?

If Malacañang wants to dispel rumors about the President’s health, why doesn’t he show himself to the public in a press conference?

Or better yet, why not release a medical bulletin? His doctor’s words would carry more weight than statements from Presidential legal counsel Salvador Panelo and Presidential Spokesman Harry Roque.

The Filipino people has the right to know about the President’s health. Section 12 of Art. VII of the Constitution states that, “In case of serious illness of the President, the public shall be informed of the state of his health. The members of the Cabinet in charge of national security and foreign relations and the Chief of Staff of the Armed Forces of the Philippines, shall not be denied access to the President during such illness. “

Section 8 of Art. VII also states, “In case of death, permanent disability, removal from office, or resignation of the President, the Vice-President shall become the President to serve the unexpired term.”

    kalookalike yata yang katabi ni bong go, chinese kalookalike that cannot speak our own language, lol! bong go has just made his own version of filthy rich asians, gusto kasing maging senador si bong go.

    and if sison is to be belived that his source knows the true health of digong, why not release the digong’s medical record, e, sison!

    kaso, wala yata sa pinas and medical records ni digong, he has been seeing chinese doctor in china mainland, his medical record is in china, not in pinas!

    who is protecting digong from bong go? sa video, it appears to me digong is uncomfortable being filmed, and yet bong go continued on and showed his boss in such unflattering moment, vulnerable and lost for words. why cant bong go see that his boss needs privacy? para bang ang unhappiness ni digong is bong go’s happiness.

    bong go got more ‘likes’ for his epal video and more publicity for his senatorial bid, endearing himself to taumbayan at digong’s expense.

    crucifying his boss by releasing more unflattering videos of him seems to be bong go’s new pasttime as well as making people question his boss’ health. nilalaglag na ba ni bong go si digong? while the gabinete keeps on denying the state of digong’s unhealthiness, bong go keeps posting the state of digong’s unhealthiness.

    not only is bong go pimping for digong, procuring beautiful women for him and then filming them!

    at saka yong discoloration sa mukha ni digong, seems like side effect yan of the medication he’s taking. it may not look good, but hindi life threatening po yang discoloration. it could well mean that he is indeed taking the medication as prescribed and no point of him lying or denying he’s drug free and not medicated. his urine may also be discolored, not the normal yellow in color, but reddish brown. when he finished medication, all his normal color should return.
