In a video posted on Facebook yesterday, Marcos was asked how he would face members of the administration-backed coalition and families who prevent reforms and who violate the law.

The President said there are two kinds of people who hinder reforms, namely those who think that the policy is wrong and those who oppose measures because of politics.

"There are those who believe that the policy is not right. We have to talk to them. You explain your side. Who knows? Maybe they are right, you are wrong. You will learn something," he said.
