Duterte previously mentioned that he will not support any illegal and excessive mining activities in the Philippines since it causes flash floods in various provinces that killed thousands of lives.
President-elect Rody Duterte reportedly offered the Department of Environment and Natural Resources(DENR) Secretary post to Gina Lopez who has a strong advocacy against mining activities.
On Monday, Duterte officially disclosed the position he offered to Gina Lopez, Chairperson of ABS-CBN Lingkod Kapamilya Foundation. The announcement of the DENR position occurred at the Presidential Guest House in DPWH Panacan Depot, Davao City.
Other details regarding the meeting of the President and Lopez are not yet published online.
The President found a good partner in his advocacy but the question still remains if Gina Lopez would accept the government post.
