Rodrigo Duterte

"Well, that foul-mouthed, no-good, drug-killing bastard, Rodrigo Roa Duterte, is coming to talk to us regarding of Vietnam being part of the People's Democratic Union of Asia. But I bet you can just call him Rody though, but Digong's just fine."

--Su Ji-Hoon, The Assassin Phantom

Rodrigo "Rody" Roa Duterte (Tagalog: [roˈdɾigo dʊˈtɛrtɛ]), also known as Digong, is a Filipino lawyer and politician who is the 16th and current President of the Philippines and the first from Mindanao, the southernmost island of the country to hold the office. At 71 years old, Duterte is the oldest person to assume the Philippine presidency; the record was previously held by Sergio Osmeña at the age of 65.

Duterte studied political science at the Lyceum of the Philippines University, graduating in 1968, before obtaining a law degree from San Beda College of Law in 1972. He then worked as a lawyer and was a prosecutor for Davao City, a highly urbanized city on Mindanao island, before becoming vice mayor and, subsequently, mayor of the city in the wake of the Philippine Revolution of 1986. Duterte was among the longest-serving mayors in the Philippines, serving seven terms and totaling more than 22 years in office.

In When the Cold Breeze Blows Away, he remains as the President of the Philippines from 2021 to 2022. but now he becomes the chairman of the Central Liberation Treaty Organization, just weeks after the second Thiaroye massacre.

In 2023, he resigns from his post as President of the Philippines due to health concerns and because of this, he is succeeded by Oscar Hidalgo; who is the current leader of the Filipino Militia.

Reviving Lapu-Lapu
"If you can stop these no-good Coalition of the Red Star bastards, maybe these Chinese pricks will have to be by bay, Ruby Rose."

"Well, okay. If I have to."

"So, how about we revive one of our national heroes?"

"Lapu-Lapu?"

"Well, exactly."
