|April 12, 2025
President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. vetoed the Philippine citizenship bid of Chinese national Liduan Wang, according to the Palace on Friday, April 11.
Wang’s application for Filipino citizenship received final approval from the Senate in January, despite concerns raised by Sen. Risa Hontiveros.
In a message to reporters, Palace Press Officer Claire Castro confirmed that Wang’s citizenship application had been “vetoed by the president.”
The Palace has yet to release a veto message on the matter.
