Pres. Duterte is one of a kind among our Philippine presidents. He holds press conferences at 12 MIDNIGHT and could end up till wee hours of the morning (3AM or beyond). No holds barred. |

Nagbabala si Pangulong Rodrigo Duterte sa mga kumpanya na itigil na ang "endo" bago pa sila ipasara ng gobyerno. Ayon sa DOLE, kabilang sa mahigpit nilang tinututukan ang shopping malls at manufacturing industry. 200 schools will get brand-new, cloud-based learning system in the next three years. http://ow.ly/zFhU302GNM9 Posted Image |

Duterte is such a welcome difference from the previous president who never took responsibility and accountability for anything. And blamed everyone else but himself. :crap: :batok: DU30 is totally obsessed with becoming the real...(cringe) "Father of this Nation." I'm cringing because P*oy referred to himself as that and really ruined the term among other things. Kung hind nanalo si DU30 zombieland na tayo in 3-year time.

Someone told me that the Duterte administration wants to get rid of all currently used jeepneys, sell them to junkyards and replace them with electric ones on which you can use cards to pay fares with. That would be a good idea since it would solve the problem of the driver not having enough change in the morning.

August 8, 2016 • PRESIDENT Rodrigo Duterte has found an ally in the Catholic hierarchy — Cardinal Gaudencio Rosales — who said fault-finders were wrong to think they had a monopoly over righteousness. Rosales, the archbishop emeritus of Manila, said Duterte had shown decisiveness in government “you have never seen in many decades.” He chided the President’s critics and urged Filipinos to pray to “lessen the faults” of the new leadership. “Now there is a new leader and we can see he is on a right track, the leadership really is on a right track,” he said at the Church-run Radyo Veritas 846 over the weekend. The prelate acknowledged that Duterte’s methods had drawn criticisms, but said he would rather pray for the President. In an apparent invitation to the public to try to see good in Duterte’s actions, Rosales argued that God does not limit goodness to one shape, as goodness can come in many shapes. “You know you cannot own goodness. Sometimes we think we’re the only ones who are good. No way, that’s not right,” Rosales said. The cardinal’s statements contrasted with those of Lingayen-Dagupan Archbishop Socrates Villegas, president of the Catholic Bishops’ Conference of the Philippines, who said on Sunday he could no longer stomach the widespread killings of suspected drug pushers and traders. “I do not have to be a bishop to say this. I do not have to be a Catholic to be disturbed by the killings that jar us every time we hear or watch or read the news,” the prelate said in a statement entitled, “Let the Humanity in Us Speak.” Edited by Jovel Alipio, Aug 21 2016, 03:38 AM.

Duterte is known for some peculiar (but perhaps successful) political tactics. Duterte’s tough-on-crime legacy is a truism at this point, but many might know the unorthodox strategies he used to clean Davao City of crime and corruption. A TIME profile of Duterte written in 2002 — a year into his second stint as the city’s mayor — noted that he “made a policy of doling out groceries to cops as a way of curbing their temptation to elicit bribes.” He also had a reputation of taking justice into his own hands, beating up cops who were drunk on the job and whipping pickpockets at the city hall. |

Free WiFi in public high schools. CNN Philippines on Sept 9:
Sino kaya yung dalawa, si 0bama at si Ban Ki-moon? :sneer: Duterte wants Filipinos to eliminate their colonial mentality https://t.co/2X0cCKDCKy Posted Image https://pbs.twimg.com/media/Cru2-LDWEAAyJqc.jpg Posted Image https://pbs.twimg.com/media/Crrw16mUMAA2DpM.jpg Duterte calls out US human rights hypocrisy in Laos, bares "shocking" US Army atrocities https://t.co/0AdEqkmJXa The U.S. did try to do ethnic cleansing in our country. The order was kill everyone over 10 years of age. The U.S. never apologized for their atrocities while Americans condemned Japan for theirs. Double standards is what it is. Let's not forget the human rights violations that the U.S. is doing by snooping on their own citizens wholesale online, a subject exposed by Wikileaks and Snowden. Also, in the Middle East they kill suspected terr0rists. Shouldn't there be due process & rule of law applied in those cases by allowing such persons to have their day in court before getting executed? By saying this, I'm not by any stretch siding with terr0rists. As a matter of fact, I detest them. But when 0bama lectures, or chastises or criticizes Duterte on rule of law, due process, human rights or extra-judicial killings, he should practice what he preaches or look in his own backyard first. Not doing so is hypocrisy through and through. Philippine News: ASEAN leaders recognize Pres. Duterte’s influence http://po.st/7w1tuo Duterte was a rockstar in Japan, Indonesia and Malaysia. Match that, Penoy! It must really burn the YELLOWS with Duterte's popularity and fame. He is a folk hero to these nations and to the majority of Filipinos. |

Duterte is no N0YN0YER or a slacker. He works hard unlike the last president. One of the Tulfo brothers twitted this:

Attracting foreign investors and making it easier to do business are part of Duterte’s national economic agenda. Duterte plans to continue the macroeconomic policies of ex-President Benigno Aquino and spend the equivalent of 5 percent of gross domestic product on infrastructure. Duterte has promised to rein in corruption. He already fired his friend Peter Laviña as National Irrigation Administration chief following reports of corruption in the NIA. Did PN0y ever do that during his time? Aquino retained his controversial cabinet members up to the end of his term, like Abad, Alcala, Soliman, Abaya, etc. Even COA said that there were billions of unaccounted funds in their respective department. Duterte had made it clear since the start of his term that he would not tolerate corruption even among his closest allies. There were reports in the papers that other allies holding government positions would also soon be forced to resign or get fired. As mayor, Duterte would ask potential investors to tell him if there were any irregularities in securing permits and licenses and warn them not to try bribes to speed things up because permits could legally be secured in 72 hours. Duterte has made a commitment to the Filipino people to give them a respite from corruption, at least during his term. He said he wanted to at least reduce corruption to the “barest minimum” if possible. An investigation would be conducted regarding reports that Laviña allegedly asked for 40 percent kickbacks from contractors. He was alleged to have been favoring contractors and receiving money from them. A case will be filed if these allegations are proven true. It takes a lot of time to put in systemic change, and he does not have the luxury of time. He only has 6 years to effect meaningful changes. I hope the next president will continue Duterte's goals which won't happen if someone from Lapiang Palpak gets to replace him. :pray: Sana, wag po. |

I fully expect our economy to blossom some more through the efforts of the president & his economic team. We are already seeing signs of it. Economists even predict that our economy will be the fastest growing economy in the ASEAN region. I'm also hoping that the Constitution would be overhauled, specially the economic clause so foreigners can easily come in to invest in our country. That 60-40 restriction should be scrapped. Ang mga yumaman lang naman at nakinabang sa restriction na yan ay puro mga kastila, tsinoys, at mga dati ng mayayaman/oligarch. Regular Filipinos did not benefit from that Constitutional provision. Prenotektahan lang yung mga dati ng mga elite. |
