The second batch of children displaced by the siege in Marawi City is arriving in Malacanang this afternoon.

They will meet President Rodrigo Duterte.

The kids are being brought to the Palace as part of an educational tour arranged by groups led by the Philippine Army's First Infantry Division.

The trip is meant to expose the children to other ways of life amid the fighting in their hometown.

Some of the kids were said to be looking up to the Maute terrorists.

Last August 29, the Joint Task Force Bangon Marawi also brought to Malacanang 35 kids from the conflict-torn city.

Aside from meeting the Chief Executive, the minors were given a tour of the Presidential Museum and Library.
