Palace strikes back at Romualdez allegations

Malacañang lashed back at Tacloban City Mayor Alfred Romualdez over the alleged refusal of national government to rescue thousands of his people in the immediate aftermath of Typhoon Yolanda.

Appearing before a congressional committee in the Senate, Romualdez lamented the lack of support from the national government and said that politics injected into rescue and relief efforts added insult to injury.
