Watch Karen Davila’s interview of Senator Bato dela Rosa. He speaks in a language accessible to ordinary Filipinos and explains his position using simple but on-point words on hairy matters like President Rodrigo Duterte’s “war on drugs” and the threat of the International Criminal Court (ICC) to come to the Philippines to investigate “human rights”…
