It is true that Duterte has managed to strengthen the foreign relations of Philippines, by bringing Russia and China on his side. But at the same time, the Western nations remain as Philippines' allies. Donald Trump has shown appreciation towards Duterte.
Duterte and Donald Trump is plan to meet each other but no date yet I think on ASEAN summit meeting.
Duterte and Donald Trump facing same problem like making news without a basis from the bias media.
That's what our current society is, they will make their news viral that people will share what they think and if they can relate to that. It's always been like that, and there are no media that has no bias. I admire him for his attitude and character; he doesn't let the media stray him, he's showing his true colors, unlike the past presidents that create a facade that makes us, the people in the Philippines, stupid.
