The popular mayor of Davao city Rodrigo Duterte has officially announced that he will not run for presidency for this 2016 presidential election. The netizens upon hearing Duterte's statements was shocked and even told him that he is the last hope for a better PH. But first let's discuss what he'd done to the City of Davao.
1. Peace and Order. We all know that the City of Davao is known for it's Orderliness and its Peacefulness. Its extreme implementation of the Law makes the citizens obey and respect
the government. Thus, because of this, crimes are minimized in the city.
2. Fast development of Davao. For the past decades Davao is just a rural and undeveloped
City. During the 1980s, Duterte became the mayor of Davao and made great changes such as building of new government establishments, maximizes their exportation of products than
their imports, and founded many public schools that is accessible and affordable for the less privileged individuals. For this changes Davao became one of the most developed City in
the Philippines.
3. As a caring mayor. He saw the most common problem in Davao and that is poverty, thus
during his first term he created IGPs, established public markets that sell cheaper but quality basic commodities. He employed many citizens during his term and continued by
his daughter. He also funded the scholarships of college students.
I myself hysterically reacted to his decisions, but i also respected his thoughts of not running for presidency. All i can do is hope that he will change his mind since we still have almost a year left for our next presidential election.
