PH could lose more foreign aid, analyst warns

THE Philippines is in danger of losing assistance from foreign countries and even a downgraded credit rating if President Rodrigo Duterte insists on imposing conditions on a United Nations special rapporteur seeking a probe on extrajudicial killings linked to the drug war, an analyst warned on Sunday.

Ramon Casiple of the Institute for Political and Electoral Reform said the refusal of the President to reconsider his decision to impose conditions on UN Special Rapporteur Agnes Callamard was not helping the administration project a good image.
