“President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. had large audience while delivering his speech at the 77th United Nations General Assembly on Sept. 21.”
What Vera Files found
Video clips showing a large audience in Marcos' recap posted on his Facebook page appear to have been shot around the time of either UNGA president Csaba Kőrösi’s address or UN secretary-general António Guterres’ speech. Footage from the official Radio Television-Malacañang and the UN television at the time Marcos was speaking show more than 90 percent of the seats in the assembly hall were unoccupied.
