Marcos clarified yesterday that he did not appoint Soriano to boost his public relations machinery.
“Iyong kay Paul Soriano, people have misunderstood,” Marcos said.
“He is not there to be part of the PR machine. He is there to find ways to promote the creative industry kasi doon siya galing,” he added.
The president said Soriano will help boost the tourism industry of the country.
“Pinagmamalaki natin ang galing kumanta ng mga Pilipino, ang gagaling umarte, ang gagaling sa sine… We have to project that to the rest of the world. Yan ang trabaho ni Paul,” he said.
A known Marcos supporter since the beginning of the campaign, Paul is First Lady Lisa Araneta Marcos’ nephew through her first cousin, director Gines Soriano.
