DUTERTE
DAVAO CITY – Davao City first district Rep. Paolo Duterte has called for unity in his Christmas message.
Duterte said the holiday season serves as a reminder of the importance of family, faith, and solidarity, particularly during what he described as a period marked by trials, criticism, and disinformation.
He thanked the people of Davao for their continued support, stressing that such backing is not rooted in blind loyalty but in lived experience.
Duterte said the support reflects what he described as public service that is quiet yet produces tangible results.
The Davao City lawmaker thanked individuals who continue to stand by principles of courage, compassion, and discipline despite what he characterized as persistent attacks and distorted narratives.
He urged the public to choose hope over hatred, truth over distractions, and unity over division, noting that while Filipinos may face different circumstances, they share a common aspiration for a nation anchored on dignity, compassion, and moral courage.
The lawmaker added that the country’s strength, in his view, comes from the Filipino family, strong communities, and faith in God.
He encouraged them to remain steadfast and reiterated his call to persevere for Davao City and the Philippines.
