Following his announcement of stepping down by 2019, refusing to lead the federal transition of the country, President Rodrigo Roa Duterte, 73, said that he wants the people to choose a \u201cyounger\u201d leader.<\/p>\n

\u201c‘Yung<\/em> transition leader ay ihahalal ng taumbayan dahil siya daw ay bibitaw na kapag naaprubahan ang Saligang Batas at hahayaan niyang ang taumbayan na magpili ng mas bata<\/em> (The transition leader will be elected by the people because he will step down [from Presidency] once the Constitution is approved and he will let the people decide on electing someone younger),\u201d Presidential Spokesperson Harry Roque, Jr. said in an interview with DZMM on Tuesday, July 10.<\/p>\n

\u201cAt parang nang in<\/em>-announce niya iyan sa<\/em> Cabinet, eh para ngang nagpaalam na eh dahil sabi niya<\/em> \u2018Tapos na ako\u2019 ‘no<\/em> \u2018by 2019\u2019 (And when he announced it to the Cabinet, it seemed that he was saying farewell because he said \u2018I am done by 2019,\u2019\u201d Roque said, quoting Duterte.<\/p>\n

According to the spokesman, Duterte\u2019s \u201cmission\u201d was only to transcend the Philippine government to a federal one, so he asked the Constitutional Commission (Con-Com) and the lawmakers to add a provision that would ban him from leading the transition.<\/p>\n

\u201cSabi nga niya, ito nga ay para maalis lahat ng suspetsa na may ibang balakid pagdating sa <\/em>Charter Change (Cha-cha) at pangalawa nga eh ay pagod na [siya]<\/em> (He said that this is to remove all speculations that he has other motives with the Charter Change and second is that he is already tired),\u201d Roque explained in the same interview.<\/p>\n

Roque then went on by encouraging the people to exercise their democracy by speaking out, as legislators finalize the draft of the federal Constitution, adding that this will affect everyone\u2019s lives.<\/p>\n

\u201cImportante na tayo\u2019y magdiskurso, lahat ng tao ay magsabi kung kontra o [sang-ayon]<\/em> (It is important for us to have a discourse, everyone should say whether they are against or agreeing),\u201d he further said.<\/p>\n

A shift to federalism has been part of Duterte’s platform when he was still running for the Presidential post, believing that it is a solution to many of the country’s problems.<\/p>\n
