He also lauded the simpleness of the President and said that he’s one of the most simple politicians that he met.
Hindi sa pagsisipsip pero isa si Rody Duterte sa pinaka simpleng taong nakilala ko na nasa gobyerno. Magmula sasakyan, pananamit at pagkain.

This week, Senator Antonio Trillanes IV brought back the alleged undeclared wealth issue of President Rodrigo Duterte.
