Is “Nice” Necessarily “Good”? My Question To Common Pinoys

3 aspects of Rodrigo Duterte’s enduring mass appeal

July 16, 2015 Kate Natividad 13 Comments

Ex Davao Mayor Rodrigo Duterte is Da Man! He recently starred in Vice Ganda’s Gandang Gabi Vice and made waves across Pinoy society. This is the guy Filipinos want. He’s got a platform (federalism among other yummy visions) and he’s got conviction. Plus, he’s got a Law degree. Sweet! Specifically, these three no-brainers are what…
