MANILA<\/strong>\u00a0\u2013 The \u201cDuterte Legacy\u201d campaign seeks to highlight the successes and sacrifices made by President Rodrigo Duterte and his administration to bring progress to the country, Presidential Communications Operations Office (PCOO) Secretary Martin Andanar said on Friday.<\/p>\n

During the launch of the \u201cDuterte Legacy\u201d campaign, Andanar noted that the President has fulfilled his promises \u201cwith great resolve and confidence.\u201d<\/p>\n

He added that Duterte, during his \u201cfruitful\u201d years in office as the highest official of the land, has carried out his mandate as a \u201cfather to our nation.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cHe (Duterte) is the face, the voice, and the spirit of a nation that has been revived from lethargy and indifference, towards a horizon of positive and meaningful change,\u201d Andanar said in his keynote speech.<\/p>\n

\u201cThrough the \u2018Duterte Legacy\u2019 Campaign, we are grateful and privileged to showcase through print and digital media, the honest summaries of successes and sacrifices of public servants in order to achieve our national goal of development,” he added.<\/p>\n

The PCOO-initiated campaign intends to promote the government\u2019s efforts and accomplishments in living up to its promise of bringing \u201creal change\u201d to the lives of all Filipinos.<\/p>\n

The communication drive focuses on the three key pillars of the Duterte administration\u2019s legacy — peace and order, infrastructure development, and poverty alleviation.<\/p>\n

In his opening remarks, Executive Secretary Salvador Medialdea expressed elation that the public appreciates the President\u2019s efforts to bring \u201cpositive\u201d and \u201creal\u201d changes to the country.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe Duterte administration is driven by radical change, marked with multiple milestones in progress and development,\u201d Medialdea said. \u201cThe real change we have all yearned for so long is now happening.\u201d<\/p>\n

Cabinet execs\u2019 efforts lauded<\/strong><\/p>\n

Andanar acknowledged Duterte\u2019s significant strides with the help of his Cabinet secretaries.<\/p>\n

He hailed his fellow Cabinet secretaries\u2019 determination and hard work to ensure that Duterte\u2019s policies and programs have fully and effectively been implemented.<\/p>\n

\u201cGovernment is not simply a collective official endeavor. A more noble vision has early on been set by the President as the objective of every government activity,\u201d Andanar said. \u201cThe functioning of the government, aligned with the imperatives determined by the head of the state, is not solely credited to the leader but also to his entire Cabinet \u2013 the women and men whose culture of work magnifies the President\u2019s policies and programs.\u201d<\/p>\n

The \u201cDuterte Legacy\u201d campaign launch featured a photo exhibit of the government\u2019s key achievements, testimonies from beneficiaries of various government programs and projects, and presentations from other Cabinet secretaries.<\/p>\n

Several communications collaterals under the \u201cDuterte Legacy\u201d campaign, which include a magazine, a podcast, and a series of documentaries, were also launched.<\/p>\n

The magazine\u2019s first issue features different perspectives and stories from beneficiaries of the Universal Access to Quality Tertiary Education Act.<\/p>\n

The maiden podcast episode tackles the public housing program for the victims of Typhoon Yolanda, while the first episode of the documentary features the beneficiaries of the Tagoloan Flood Control Project in Misamis Oriental.<\/p>\n

Fight vs. \u2018deeper, more serious\u2019 crises<\/strong><\/p>\n

Despite the current administration\u2019s significant achievements, Andanar ensured that the President and his administration would continue to work harder to fight the \u201cdeeper and more serious\u201d problems besetting the country.<\/p>\n

He said the government is ready to face all the challenges with \u201cgreat intensity\u201d.<\/p>\n

\u201cAmidst all these, the President emphasized the deeper, more serious crises before us — the evil that he has seen face to face, the evil that surrounds us, and the evil that is within us. He pledged to change all that, at the expense of his life, in the war he declared against illegal drugs, corruption, and criminality,\u201d Andanar said. \u201cOn the third year of his administration, his battle-cry continues to confront these evils with great intensity, and no other leader has yet approximated his conquests. This is his legacy unfolding.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
