Rodrigo Duterte,
Speech During a Wake Visit To Killed-In-Action Soldiers
(2016)
“ We've been at war for almost 45 years. That's why I'm pleading to everybody including the Communist Party of the Philippines to continue with the peace talks. I have kept my silence despite the ranting of Sison. Hindi na ako... kasi kung mayor lang ako pwede – pwede talaga – but then I carry the burden of a nation and so I just have to control my mouth. But this cannot go on. This crazy thing about just the landmine, ito nag-buk iyong mukha nawala na. ”
