“Ikaw ang pangulo para sa pagbabago… Sawa na ang bayan ko sa magnanakaw na tao.” – Rodrigo Duterte

He as of late declared he no longer has plans for 2016, yet his devoted supporters haven’t surrendered and keep on wooing him. There was even wild discuss throat malignancy being a purpose behind his sudden declaration, a claim he immediately rejected as unwarranted and vindictive.

He stated, “The Administration is fate. No measure of lying, duplicity and mutilation of truth would offer assistance. With respect to me, I trust I have been honest to the general population on my wellbeing conditions.”

Goes to his folks’ graves for critical choices

At the point when confronted with a significant choice or issue, Duterte visits the graves of his folks in Remote graveyard, the most seasoned and most congested burial ground in Davao City.

Both guardians were open workers. His dad, Vicente, was the last legislative leader of the unified Davao in the 1950s. His mom, Soledad or Nanay Soleng, was a teacher, urban pioneer, and donor.

His mom once portrayed Duterte as an audacious child who was constantly out of the house. As indicated by legend, a 14-year-old Duterte even flew a little plane over his neighborhood without his folks’ assent.

As indicated by a Period profile, Duterte needed to persevere beatings from his mom. He was kicked out of Ateneo de Davao Secondary School and was “ousted” by his dad to a secondary school 57 kilometers from Davao.

After formal flying preparing in school, Duterte as far as anyone knows flew a plane over his old secondary school to toss a stone at the school rooftop.

Regardless he harbored intense sentiments over an episode in which he was admonished by the Dignitary of Train before his schoolmates. Be that as it may, days after the stone tossing, he apologized to the school organization.

Wardrobe savant

This extreme talking “terrible kid” is enthusiastic about the composed word. His dear companions say he eats up books on each comprehensible subject, including Philippine history (especially Mindanao history), financial aspects, sustenance security, and governmental issues.

He has perused life stories on Napoleon Bonaparte, Lee Kwan Yew, and Barack Obama. With respect to fiction, he’s an ardent peruser of Robert Ludlum and Sydney Sheldon.

Keeps an old cover for solace

Like any other person, Duterte has familiar luxuries as well. He can’t rest without a specific extremely old ramie cover given to him by his mother when he was only a year old. He brings it wherever he goes and tries to fix it up when it breaks apart.

In the mid-1990s, while in transit to Indonesia for an exchange mission, a Davao City official saw a “cloth” pressed among Duterte’s things and requested it to be discarded.

Duterte as far as anyone knows answered, “Kung itapon niyo ‘yan kayo na lang pumunta sa exchange mission ninyo. Balik ako ng Davao. (On the off chance that you toss that, you proceed with the exchange mission. I will come back to Davao.) I can’t rest without it.”

Digong is among the nation’s longest-serving chairmen. He has been Davao City chairman for 7 terms, totalling over 22 years. At the point when not a chairman, he was bad habit leader under his little girl, Sara, or congressman.

Amid his terms, he actualized a smoking boycott in broad daylight puts, a mining boycott, an against segregation statute, and a 911 crisis reaction framework, among others. Many credit him for inspiring Davao City from its notoriety for being a murder funding to one of the most secure, most-liveable urban communities in the nation.

He was one of the principal chairmen to go to the assaulted city’s guide. Toting P7 million in real money for gift, he traveled to Tacloban to by and by lead a philanthropic group made out of Davaoeño specialists, medical attendants, and pursuit and-protect staff.

Journalists who have secured him for quite a while say he can’t control his tears in times of incredible distress or foul play.

After his visit and with tears in his eyes, he depicted the scene of devastation to journalists, “God more likely than not been elsewhere or he overlooked that there is a planet called Earth.”

His leader’s profile in the Davao City site says he’s single yet he is related with no less than two ladies. Elizabeth Zimmerman, his ex, is the mother of his 3 grown-up kids Paolo, Sarah, and Sebastian. Honeylet, a medical attendant, is the mother of 11-year-old Veronica.

He has said out in the open that he has 3 lady friends however they don’t appear out in the open capacities.

You can simply anticipate that Duterte will “be a tease” with no less than one young lady amid his open appearances. These are never genuine advances. He’s frequently happy with simply having his photo brought with the young lady. He’s never had a sweetheart underneath 25 years of age.

He has a tendency to be over-defensive of ladies, at one point notwithstanding restricting bathing suits in the Mutya ng Davao exhibition.

He enjoys ladies with a therapeutic foundation. No less than two of his sweethearts were medical attendants.

The crusade season, the time when this tune could be heard all over the place, is over. Duterte has won the presidential races by a surprising margin with 16.6 million votes, the primary such triumph for a Mindanaoan.

Be that as it may, Duterte can’t release this melody. A couple days after the fact, he plays it again amidst another press preparation. He requests hush. What are his walking orders for his Bureau? Simply tune in to this tune, he says.

As it plays, Duterte, alone in the table in front, rests his head upon his hands.

To hear this melody is to be transported back to his Miting de Avance in Luneta on May 7.

That night, somewhere in the range of 600,000 individuals filled the recreation center. A mammoth banner was passed around as Duterte gripped a littler banner to his trunk and, with tears in his eyes, pronounced, “It will be just a single Filipino country.”

To hear this tune is to be reminded that Duterte has turned into an image.

To his supporters, he is the impetus for change. He is the outrage vote against the as far as anyone knows bumbling Aquino organization. He holds the light for Mindanao and Visayas against “royal Manila.” He is the solid pioneer with a delicate heart. He is the conventional man against the oligarchs, the wrongdoing warrior, the kindhearted tyrant, the friend in need.
