It did douse speculations that they were not on good terms.
“I don’t think we can call it a meeting…So it was really more a social call rather than anything else,’’ Communications Secretary Ricky Carandang told reporters when asked why President Benigno Aquino III went to Vice President Jejomar Binay’s office.
Carandang said the two officials did not talk about any issue during the presidential visit.
