An indigenous group has called Senator Imee Marcos' Cordillera tribal wear during her brother’s second State of the Nation Address an"insult" to the Igorot tribe and has dared her to speak up about the tribes' issues with her family.
Siklab Philippine Indigenous Youth Network said the senator had no right to wear the traditional clothing, especially since she is part of the Marcos family.Bilang mga katutubo, insulto sa amin ang pagsusuot mo ng kasuotang ito lalo na at mali naman ang paggamit mo sa mga ito.
The group also challenged Marcos to tackle issues currently faced by the tribe, including missing indigenous people rights advocates and wrongfully tagging members of the tribe as terrorists.
