yes.that's davao.. and city nga gpusil sa mayor iya mismu anak in front of his close allies kay iya anak druglord..

ouch.
grabeha ana na mayor noh.
but he couldve just reclusion perpetua his son

Oi children, ok na ang anak ni Mayor Duterte.  He is not a druggie anymore, in fact he is serving now his constituents in Catalunan Grande or Mintal as a Barangay Captain and at the same time ABC President.  He asked for forgiveness and that he be given another chance and so far, so good. 

haha ate graz children jud?lols..kami ni mocha ang tom and jerry sa TB..haha!:)
aw maayu nalang te..thought namatay..
does he really drop the criminals off his helicopter?

I don't know but he is really unforgiing to  "sagbot sa society".  Simple rules na i violate like smoking in public places, nah ma singgitan ka ni Mayor Duterte kon masakpan ka.  Naka experience nko jud kay ang driver sa jeep akong gisakyan nag sigarilyo, nah gi leche2x jud unya gipanaog mi mga pasahero kay gidala ni Mayor ipa seminar kon unsa daw wa na sabti sa simple rules!  Tough but it's paying off.

whew.kaw kiamoy. o.a pud ka!
like lim lang tale, paprison lang, not patayon.

wow! nice jud diay ang mayor didto. uhmm pila na cya ka years mayor?

Ang problema kay old and sickly na si Mayor Duterte but his lawyer daughter Sara who is the current Vice Mayor is as good as Mayor himself, if not more strict than Mayor Duterte. 

Bem, Mayor Duterte started as a Mayor in Davao City in 1989 and three consecutive terms later.  He ran for congress and won again and came back to run his fourth term in Davao in 2001 and ran again in 2004 and 2007.

c sarah man anf acting mayor karon....pareha lang gihapon xa sa iyang papa ug dinalhan...mura lang gihapon c digong!
