Baste Duterte blasts Marcos Jr. for ‘pulling PH back to abusive, excessive gov’t’
Davao City Mayor Sebastian Duterte accused President Ferdinand Marcos Jr.'s administration of "pulling the country back into an abusive and excessive government."
He made these remarks during the proclamation rally for Partido ng Demokratiko Pilipino senatorial candidates in San Juan City.
Mayor Duterte, son of former President Rodrigo Duterte and brother of Vice President Sara Duterte, invoked the history of the PDP party, which was formed to oppose the oppressive regime of Ferdinand Marcos Sr.
He expressed concern that while the nation strives for progress, Marcos Jr.'s administration is dragging the country back into an abusive and oppressive system.
He also cited the administration of his father, Rodrigo Duterte, as proof that the government can serve with discipline and without abuse, particularly with public funds.
