Sure ... he did. But ... ... as you've admitted, he'd the grace to aoplogise, for which - in turn - he received a Papal blessing.




See http://filipinaroses.com/showthread....n-the-election ... #6.



Yes, ... as they do in most major cities worldwide. Yet how come Davao was voted as being 'fourth safest city in Asia'?



Bank of Philippine Islands may Sue Senator Trillanes over fake claims:

... perhaps Filipinos finally realise with hindsight that the nation's economy was at its height (ahead of Singapore) during the said Imelda's much~maligned late husband's period of Martial Law ... only to slither rapidly downhill (as I've already indicated in my opening paragrah above) once the greedy, self~serving Aquinos took over the reins.



... rubbish! Duterte is a lawyer - a first-time passer of the Bar Exams. Forbye, a former State Prosecutor ... unlike Poe, who taught in US Nursery Schools despite [apparently] failing their National Teaching Board Exams.
My cat could pass the Bar exams in the Philippines if the right people were bribed

Fourth safest city in Asia = now that really takes the biscuit

I notice you fail to comment on Durterte's financial situation and endless list of private properties

His sledgehammer style of diplomacy will not work on the worlds stage and he will make the
Philippines a laughing stock

IMHO and of course totally unscientific he just looks like a thug and somewhat deranged

My friends are working in the financial institutions in Makati and they have seen huge
outflows of foreign investments every time Durterte tops the latest opinion polls
Shares are not seen as a good bet now in the Philippines due to Durterte

His whole election campaign is based upon eradicating crime and drugs the the Philippines so on that basis Davao should be drug and crime free then
