Marcos, accompanied by former Vice President and now Naga City Mayor Leni Robredo and Public Works Secretary Vince Dizon, checked the city's waterways and drainage systems, dismissing questions linking the visit to political maneuvering.
“Alam mo hindi namin pinag-uusapan ‘yun. I think mayor will agree with me na serbisyo muna bago politika,” he said. (You know, we are not talking about that. I think the mayor will agree with me that service must go first before politics.)
