Rodrigo Duterte Rodrigo Roa Duterte (born March 28, 1945) is a Filipino lawyer and politician who served as the 16th president of the Philippines from June 30, 2016, to June 30, 2022.[1][2] Before his presidency, Duterte held the position of mayor of Davao City for seven nonconsecutive terms between 1988 and 2013, during which he enforced rigorous anti-crime policies that correlated with a sharp decline in local violent incidents, earning the city recognition for improved public safety.[3] As president, he initiated an intensified nationwide campaign against illegal drugs and organized crime upon taking office, directing police operations that official Philippine National Police data link to substantial reductions in index crimes, including a reported 73.76 percent drop in the overall crime rate over his first five years in office.[2][4] Duterte's tenure featured high public approval, with surveys consistently recording performance ratings above 70 percent through much of his term, attributed to tangible outcomes in curbing narcotics-related violence and advancing infrastructure projects under the "Build, Build, Build" program.[5] His administration also brokered progress toward peace in Mindanao by supporting the Bangsamoro Organic Law, which facilitated the transition to autonomous regional governance following decades of separatist conflict.[6] In foreign affairs, Duterte pivoted Philippine policy toward pragmatic engagement with China on South China Sea disputes and economic cooperation, while strengthening ties with Russia, diverging from prior alignments.[7]These efforts, alongside his unfiltered rhetoric and emphasis on executive decisiveness, defined a leadership style that sustained strong domestic backing amid global scrutiny over the drug campaign's lethal enforcement tactics.[8] @Grokipedia Grokipedia.com

Philippine modern journalism has shifted from being a watchdog to being a mercenary hit squad, using "fact-checks" to protect patrons and "exposés" to bury rivals. They turn into selective framing, angled to fit a narrative, while uncomfortable facts get sidelined.

@pdokprodo Pro China.

On April 16, Ambassador Jing Quan visited Sta. Cruz, Laguna, to witness the successful localization of Chinese hybrid rice technology and joined local farmers in the harvest. By boosting yields from 4–5 to 7–8 tons per hectare, Chinese hybrid rice technology not only has driven a 50% surge in net income—putting an extra 40,000–60,000 pesos per hectare into farmers' pockets annually—but also curtailing import dependency and safeguarding food security in the Philippines. Hybrid rice cooperation has strengthened the bond between the two peoples, serving as a highlight of China-Philippines friendship. _// Chinese Embassy Ph.

@manayleila Coming from you.

Aabot sa P448 milyon ang ipinasosoli ng COA kina VP Sara dahil sa nakitang iregularidad sa paggamit ng confidential funds ng OVP noong 2022 at 2023. Hindi ito mga alegasyon lang, kundi desisyon na batay sa nasuring mga aktuwal na dokumento ng COA. Hindi ito basta-basta lang matatabunan ng mga mga fake news at disinformation. Hindi ito maisasantabi lang ng pag-iwas na sagutin o pagka-desperadong ilihis na lang ang isyu. Pera ito ng taumbayan na hindi pwedeng lustayin lang ng ilang oras o ilang araw, o ipamigay lang kay 'Mary Grace Piattos' at sa iba pang imbentong pangalan at kaduda-dudang mga personalidad.

Ibalik ang mga ninakaw ng Diktador na si Marcos. - sabi ng mga nagkanda bulag na nakikipaglaban para sa Pilipino di umano.

@RepPerci Nakainit din ng ulo ang lower house. Puro kayo kacheapan at show, walang napakabibangan ang taumbayan sa pagpwesto nyo dyan. Pabigat lang kayo sa bayan.

Nakakainit ng ulo isipin kung saan napunta ang ₱448 million na dapat isauli ni VP Sara ayon sa COA. Pero mas nakakagalit isipin na bilang DepEd Secretary, nag-iwan siya ng 165,000 na backlog sa classrooms kaya tuloy walang maayos na silid-aralan ang mga anak natin.

💔 A motorcycle taxi rider lost his life while waiting in line for financial aid at Quezon Memorial Circle. This heartbreaking incident exposes the cruel reality of a system that forces citizens to risk their lives for short-term relief. Senior Citizens Rep. Rodolfo Ordanes has called for the suspension of VAT on fuel products instead of distributing ayuda. His proposal reflects what true compassion and foresight should look like—structural reform that empowers rather than pacifies. Yet our leaders remain callous. They are consumed by political bickering, money, power, and influence. The tragedy is not only in the death of one rider, but in the nauseating indifference of those who should serve the people. 👉 Suspend VAT on fuel to ease the burden on every household. 👉 End the cycle of band-aid cash programs that demean dignity. This is a call for empathy, justice, and courage. Let us demand leaders who prioritize lives over politics, compassion over power. #CompassionAndJustice #StructuralReform #NoToBandAidSolutions #VATReform #HealthReform #LabanParaSaPilipinas #TonyLeachon #GisingPinas

@pdokprodo And also unregulated brokers.

If you want to know why basic food and manufactured goods are so incredibly expensive in the Philippines compared to Thailand or Vietnam, you have to look at the Logistics Performance Index. In Thailand, the logistical cost of moving a product (warehousing, transport, port fees) consumes roughly 14% of the product’s final retail price. In the Philippines, that logistical friction consumes over 25%. This is the Island Penalty. We are an archipelago suffering from chronic under-investment in deep-water ports and rail lines. Because we lack a unified, state-funded freight railway system, a single tomato grown in Mindanao must pass through a gauntlet of monopolized domestic shipping lines, expensive privately-owned tollways, and catastrophic urban gridlock. You aren't just paying for the tomato. You are mathematically paying for the state's failure to build efficient bridges and trains. We can never beat Thailand's export economy if moving the goods costs more than making them. 👇 Let’s discuss transport economics below: Should the government nationalize the tollways and cargo ferries? //Behind Asia

You’re the President, not a Mayor. Stop acting like a local politician, start leading the whole nation. You’re responsible for every Filipino, not just a city. Quit the TRAPO photo-ops and do your job. Either be a leader for everyone, or admit the position is too big for you.

Proof na hindi talaga sila nagtatrabaho para sa bansa. Kundi, show at pang sarili lamang. Wala nang nagtitiwala sa govyernong bulok na ito.
