Since Mayor Duterte finally decided to run as a President I've been hearing this question a lot especially if people would know I’m from Davao. Many people would think my answer to that question would simply because I'm from Davao. Well, actually that’s right, my answer would be I would choose Duterte because "I am from Davao!" What a superficial answer of mine, isn't it? But if you’re from Davao or even just been to Davao you would know that it’s not just a shallow answer, it is actually a Huge enough statement. I would vote for him because I am from Davao, I grew up in Davao and I am a one heck proud davaoena. I've witnessed, observed and experience how this man works. How he lead the Davao to be the today's Davao. If you’re going to ask for proof how good Duterte as a mayor, as a leader or as a person itself look at Davao now, see how developed city it is today compared before, I think it’s one of the solid form and proof that could back him up as a candidate to become a leader, try to visit Davao or try to ask a davaoena/ davaoena about Duterte, and you'll see that just the mention of his name their expressions changed; you could see the pride in their eyes, the pride they feel and the respect they gave towards him just the way they talk about him. They once said that you would know how good a person is, if you could hear the feedback not coming from the mouth of the people whose close to that person but from the mouth of those people whom he don't personally know but was able to interact with him. Let me warned you folks, he's not your typical politician, he doesn’t have lots of bodyguard following him around wherever he goes, he doesn’t drive imported cars, instead he drive his motorcycle or his taxi, in lieu of suits/ tuxedo he wear his usual normal polo shirt/pants attire or leather jacket if attending a formal events, he doesn’t own a mansion nor have a fat bank accounts nor a massive properties and he swears a lot and when I say a lot it means mostly with all his sentence, but that’s who he is, we Davaoena accept him for that and respect him more for being like that. And I will still choose him to trust my future and the future of my family in his "steal hands". He's a realistic candidate because instead of giving us false reassurance and promises, instead of offering us the bed of roses and chocolates, the easy straight path or way, he rather warned us for an upcoming bloody battle if his going to win, he’s offering the bed of thorns, he’s presenting us the Reality, which is what we really needed nowadays. Let’s all wake up from the nightmare that we are in and choose to change. Davao City wouldn’t be known as one of the safest city in the world if it weren’t because of the leader and its follower. In Davao, were brave enough to always choose him as our leader, we give our wholeheartedly support and full trust to Duterte, we give him the discipline that he needs, the compliance to every rule that he required, the respect that he deserves and in return he give us the safety of our family and love ones, he provided us a much livable home, a well develop, clean and healthy city. That’s why in Davao City: The Life is here. In this coming elections I know all Davaoeno’s will be full support to stand behind him, in his coming fight and journey, we will always have his back no matter what, win or lose Davaoeno’s will always have Duterte, and either win or lose Duterte will always have the Davaoeno’s. It will always be a win-win situation for the Davaoeno’s and for Duterte. He's offering the nation a Change, but we should not forget that change should start from ourselves. He's been a great leader in Davao because he has a disciplined followers, he needs the nations discipline for him to become an effective leader of our nation. So my question for all The Filipino Citizens: Are you prepared to be discipline and follow "The Punisher"? Are you brave enough to choose our Father Rodrigo "Digong" Duterte? Who will you trust your future and your loved ones future with? Let as all remember "For a Great Leader to be successful, he needs a discipline followers.
