PUTTING THE MESSAGE ACROSS. President Rodrigo Duterte holds a glass of water to stress a point while answering questions during a news conference upon his arrival from Auckland, New Zealand and from the participation to the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) leaders' meeting in Lima, Peru at the Davao International Airport in Davao City last week. Duterte pushes through with his scheduled visit to Lanao del Sur today despite an IED explosion that injured seven members of the Presidential Security Group and two other soldiers yesterday.
