President Duterte proves that he was also a good entertainer for granting the request of US President Trump at last night’s Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) gala dinner.
Donald Trump is one of the 20 national leaders who attended the 31st ASEAN Summit at SMX Convention Center in Pasay City.
The president wore a Barong Tagalog, while his partner Honeylet Avanceña wore a dazzling gray terno. The ASEAN guests were also dressed in Filipino attire.
Duterte stood beside Trump at the dinner together with Honeylet Avanceña. He also shared a toast to mark the regional bloc’s 50th anniversary.
“I wish to offer a toast to the unity, centrality, solidarity, and continued success of the ASEAN, to ASEAN’s achievements in the last 50 years, and to the success of the 31st ASEAN summit,” said by Duterte quoted by CNN Philippines.
