Communications Assistant Secretary Mocha Uson has been tapped by President Rodrigo Duterte’s Charter change committee to help in the information drive about a proposal for a shift to a federal system of government.
Consultative Committee (Con-com) spokesman Ding Generoso said on Monday that Uson would participate in disseminating information about federalism.
Generoso said that Uson’s participation in the committee’s communications campaign would help increase awareness of federalism among Filipinos.

“We’re developing a module for dissemination so that anyone who will follow the module can disseminate properly,” he also said.
