DUTERTE | Armed Forces of the Philippines will soon visit Hong Kong
MANILA - Soldiers who fought to liberate Marawi from Islamic State-linked terrorists can look forward to a vacation in Hong Kong as promised by President Rodrigo Duterte, an aide said Sunday.
Duterte has promised to shoulder the hotel accomodation and pocket money of the troops, especially women soldiers, said Andanar.
The private sector would be helping Duterte to fulfill his promise, said Majoy Gen. Restituto Padilla, spokesperson of the Armed Forces.
Duterte last week said Marawi has been liberated from terrorist influence, 5 months after Islamic State-linked fighters stormed the southern city.
The military has commenced a gradual pullout of troops from the battle zone. Commandos are set to undergo stress debriefing and re-training, said Padilla.
