Duterte Launches Vulgar Tirade On Catholic Church Hierarchy ...

[Arthur Little]

Its ALL hype and talk at the moment..Talk is cheap.
Lets see what he actually does.

Fred, my wife, as a native of Davao ... has witnessed for herself, the numerous improvements - including the introduction of 911 - to the city he's served faithfully since 1988 and can vouch for his honesty & integrity, as being a man of his word.

Given the state of Davao City in the 1980's he has made huge gains in bringing peace and safety.
Davao City does still have crime and violence ....but, like so many others living there, I never came by anything like that myself and felt very comfortable and safe roaming around and using the jeeps.

Drugs, violence and crime are all around us where ever we are, but as long as we keep away from those people involved involved it's OK
There were plenty of gangs and militia around in the 80's who were indiscriminate. Those days are far behind now.

All down to the hands-on management of DU30 and his personal knowledge of the street gangs
As President he'll have a tough time finding enough trusted likeminded folks to manage his ideas. IMHO

I've heard many different opinions from lots of people that have lived there in Davao,some good,some not so good.
Also,there is a huge difference with the job of the Mayor of a city and the President of a country.
I fully expect the body bags to be stacked high with hopefully just criminals but all that I`m interested in is that none of mine are caught in cross fire.
We just have to wait and see and hope for the best.. I`ll believe in the "numerous improvements" when I see them.
We already have a fantastic Mayor here in Tagbilaran that was just reelected... The improvements we have had from him have been frankly,impressive!!Keep it up Mayor Yap!!

Here`s a pic of him..
