Duterte told Modi that he wants Filipinos to also gain access to affordable medicines, just like the people of India.
"We can't find the medicine and you have it," he told Modi.
Duterte said right now, poor Filipinos have no choice but to buy expensive medicines imported from the United States.
The two heads of state held a bilateral meeting last night at the Philippine International Convention Center.
