With this, DILG Undersecretary and spokesperson Jonathan Malaya said that this incident is “appalling and disturbing because it goes against public morals and the Code of Conduct and Ethical Standards of Public Officials and Employees.”

“If true, this is unbecoming of an elected government official,” said Malaya. Malaya added that the DILG is conducting an investigation regarding the incident, and also urged the Dasmariñas City government to investigate the matter.
