As president Duterte reached his 100th day as the leader of the Philippines, he delightfully imparted to the public his life as the highest leader of the country on Friday afternoon. He spoke before the banana growers in Davao and recalled his past events as a child and related his situations now that he became the president of the country and how things changed for him. He also recalled his life when he was a student.
"When they were studying very hard I was enjoying my life taking most of my time. Mas maganda kasi ang kabataan mo kaysa dito sa…presidency. Susmaryosep! If you only knew...Kung pabalikin ang…ay susmaryo--I am the chief clerk of the government,"
Afterwards, he delivered his litany regarding his paper works and other related responsibilities. As president, he said, he has to check and read documents before approving them. With all his tasks, he could only rest by 2 to 4 a.m. Then, he begins another day at 1 p.m.
With wittiness he said, "Again, I go home. I do not eat dinner just yung finger food na sandwiches ang kinakain. Then I, that’s the routine. It’s lonely. Alone. ‘Di ko naman mayakap mga guwardya kay lalaki man. Walang babae kung minsan yung mga aide ko itong si…umuuwi man sila paghatid sa akin just to make sure I go home alive. After that kung mabangungot ako wala silang pakialam.”
Lastly, he complaint about his privacy since his movements are restricted."I do not have a privacy because you are not supposed to lock your door. You are not allowed to do that. Although they have not tried to open it up without knocking. And I haven’t experienced one na ginising ako but they are not…you cannot lock the door. I don’t know why. Basta makatulog ka diyan anong gawin mo? You can just leave it unlocked. Okay naman na. I suppose na baka may magnanakaw, huli nila agad but that’s the rationale of the life of a President. Beyond that there is nothing," Duterte shared.
