“I want to say that whether I’m in DENR or not, I will give my 100 percent support to this very good man whom I think will be the best president the country will ever have.”
 
Ms. Gina Lopez is the chairman of the ABS-CBN Lingkod Kapamilya Foundation. She is also an environment advocate who has launched a petition to stop the mining in Palawan. During the campaign period Mayor Duterte promised to stop the illegal mining operations in the country once he will be elected as President.
