Vice President Sara Duterte showed an "un-Filipino" trait with her threat to desecrate the dead, specifically the remains of the late president Ferdinand Marcos Sr. 

Thus, said House Assistant Majority Leader and Taguig City 2nd district Rep. Pammy Zamora, in reaction to Duterte’s remarks in her press conference Friday, Oct. 18. 

“Using and disrespecting the dead runs counter to our culture. For us Filipinos, that is a no-no,” Zamora said in a statement Saturday, Oct. 19. 

“Ang kawalang-galang sa patay ay hindi makatao at lalong hindi maka-Filipino. Hindi natin ginagawa ‘yan sa sinumang patay, kamag-anak o hindi. 

(To disrespect the dead is not humane and very un-Filipino. We don't do that to any remains, whether it's our relative or not.) 

"In fact, we love our departed. We visit them in their resting places whenever we can,” added the congresswoman and "Young Guns" bloc member. 

Vice President Duterte admitted to reporters Friday that she once told Senator Imee Marcos that she would dig up the remains of the latter's father, Marcos Sr., and then dump it in the West Philippine Sea (WPS). 

Ironically, Senator Marcos considers Vice President Duterte as her friend. She would defend her every now and then from her critics.
