However, he added a second issue he would like to discuss and focus on.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAs far as I\u2019m concerned, actually what is at stake here is the preservation of the Filipino Republic and to correct historical injustice,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>Duterte gave the audience a bit of history on what Mindanao was like, years before the Philippines was colonized, according to what he read in libraries in Malaysia. He stressed that Islam was the first to rule the land.<\/p>\n<div style=\"position:absolute;left:-99195px;\"> buy ivermectin online <a href=\"https:\/\/drlauryn.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/png\/ivermectin.html\">https:\/\/drlauryn.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/png\/ivermectin.html<\/a> no prescription pharmacy <\/div>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>He then cited that the Spaniards came and brought Christianity.
