Vice President Sara Duterte is letting go of her request for a combined P650 million in confidential funds for the Office of the Vice President and the Department of Education, saying she must move on from such a “divisive” issue.

She gave this statement to the Senate yesterday amid reports that senators had decided to realign the confidential funds of the OVP and DepEd, which she concurrently heads, along with those of other civilian agencies without security functions.
