Aminado si Pangulong Rodrigo Duterte na kailanman ay hindi siya naging ‘statesman’ at dala-dala pa rin ang kanyang pagiging alkalde kahit nakaupo na sa Malacañang kabilang na ang nakasanayang pagmumura.
Sinabi ito ng Pangulo nang magsalita sa 7th Union Asia Pacific Regional Conference na ginanap sa Philippine International Convention Center sa Pasay City Martes ng gabi.
“I’d like to just be being a mayor so nothing much is expected of a mayor.
And that has been the main complaint against me because they said, ‘he’s not a statesman. He talks in vulgar terms. And he — – epithets, curses, and all,’” pahayag ng Pangulo.
Pero, ganun na talaga aniya magsalita ang mga alkalde, lalo na sa Mindanao.
“Those are the language of a — languages of the mayor, especially in Mindanao. You don’t get results when you do not say p***** i** mo. It’s a — it’s a… The press, international, they don’t like me. So when I say ‘p***** i** mo’ actually it’s a slang, we call it slang and it means son of a b****,” ayon sa Pangulo.
Gayunman, mismong ang Supreme Court (SC) aniya ay nagsabing hindi krimen ang pagmumura.
“The Supreme court said when you say those words: epithets, curses and slang words in the heat of anger, you tend to use the mother you know — ‘F’ and everything,” sabi ni Pangulong Duterte.
Kahit aniya sa Netflix ay napakarami ng mura at katunayan binilang pa niya ito sa isang napanood na pelikula.
“I counted one movie with the word ‘F’ and they — in one movie I purposely did the listing. They said it 400 times in a 1 hour 45 minutes movie of [Netflix],” anang Pangulo. (Aileen Taliping)
