According to the 76-year-old President, his daughter is just “open” for the possibility of a presidential bid but it does not mean that she will run. He said that he wants her spared from personalities like former Senator Antonio Trillanes III and Sen. Leila de Lima.

“Walang ginawa kundi mag-atake ng mga kapwa tao nila. I’d rather na ibigay ang gobyerno sa kanila, let them win. I wish them luck,” he expressed.

Pres. Duterte added that he even wish them to win and, in case they would, the government is for them and they can do what they want. Based on the report, he admitted that he will get hurt if Mayor Sara would be attacked. He is open to her running in some other time but not at this time.

“Run at some other time, ‘wag ngayon kasi wala kang ma-ano dito,” the President said.
