Wearing Army camouflage uniform, President Duterte and his aides visit a military camp in Iligan City after a failed attempt to visit Marawi City yesterday.
DAVAO CITY , Philippines  – President Duterte tried to sneak into Marawi City yesterday but failed due to bad weather.
The President had said he was again taking some “private time” and did not announce his Marawi visit.

Garbed in military camouflage and a cap, Duterte made it as far as Iligan City but was prevailed upon not to continue on to Marawi.

This was reportedly his fourth attempt to go to the besieged city.
His “me time” came after five successive days of provincial sorties, military camp visits and other social engagements.
The President came home to Davao City Wednesday after staying for three days at Bahay Pagbabago in Malacañang. He met with Cabinet officials last Tuesday.

Even the release of a Social Weather Stations (SWS) survey showing him enjoying a high net satisfaction rating did not convince the President to come out briefly to say a word or two about the positive development.
There were no official engagements or functions lined up for him yesterday.
Duterte made it clear earlier that he would spend most of his time in Mindanao in the next few weeks, as he still has to resolve the Marawi crisis sparked by the seizure of the city by the Islamic State-linked Maute militant group.
He said he would only travel to Manila if he needs to attend important functions or meetings.
On Thursday night, Duterte braved the rains to visit three soldiers injured in an attack by New People’s Army rebels in Monkayo, Compostela Valley last July 1.
The three wounded soldiers, now confined at the Metro Davao Medical and Research Center, were identified as Pfc. Jestoni Torrefiel, Pvt. Alex Agiaman and Cpl. Rey Lagura.
The President awarded the Wounded Personnel Medal to each of the three. They were also given cash assistance and a Glock sidearm each.
Duterte once again expressed gratitude to the wounded soldiers for their sacrifice, saying he could never thank them enough for their dedication and passion for performing their task of protecting the country and the people.
Earlier, he visited troops of the Army’s 403rd Infantry Brigade in Malaybalay, Bukidnon, many of whom were given military merit medals.

MANILA, Philippines - President Duterte said he is “doubly honored” to be adopted by the Philippine Military Academy Alumni Association Inc. more than two decades after he became an honorary member of PMA Class of 1967.
“I am an adopted ‘Dimasupil’ Class of 1967, that is already honor enough but to be formally adopted by the Philippine Military Academy Alumni is a double honor,” Duterte said in his speech before PMA alumni at the PMA Grandstand in Fort Del Pilar, Baguio City yesterday.
He said the latest honor was “because of my long and harmonious relationship with PMA alumni (and) not about political consideration.” He thanked the alumni association “for clarifying that.” 
Duterte said he is just as happy doing his work as public servant.
“The work I do, I do in the service of the people,” he said. “And somehow, I also feel at home here at PMA because of its mission to train and develop graduates with character and skill.”
Although he is not a soldier, Duterte said he is aware of the demands of being one. It requires inner strength, a choice to live by courage and principle, he pointed out.

He said, “My own life has been molded by the principle of love of country, compassion for the poor and needy and pride in being a Filipino.”
On Friday at the Baguio Country Club, Duterte extolled cadets and alumni for their deep commitment to serve.
“I am confident therefore that our mistahs who are holding key positions in the public and private sectors will deliver what is expected of them and more,” Duterte said.
“We are now in the process of modernizing the Armed Forces of the Philippines and the Philippine National Police so that they may perform their mandates effectively,” he added.
In the same event, Duterte said he has directed law enforcement agencies “to be relentlessly pursuing those who would do harm to our people and the country, including criminal organizations, drug syndicates and terrorists.”
“So, no matter where our journey in life led us the last 50 years, our shared love and sacred duty to serve our motherland will always bond us together as members of the ‘Dimasupil’ Class of 1967,” Duterte said.
