MANILA<\/strong>\u00a0\u2013 For the second time since the coronavirus disease 2019 (Covid-19) grappled the country, President Rodrigo Duterte flew home to Davao City to be with his family this weekend, Malaca\u00f1ang said on Saturday.<\/p>\n

Duterte was in his official residence in Davao City since Friday, Presidential Spokesperson Harry Roque said.<\/p>\n

\u201cKahapon po umalis ang Presidente<\/em>\u00a0(The President left Manila yesterday),\u201d he said during the Laging Handa program aired on state-run PTV-4.<\/p>\n

Roque said Duterte is also expected to deliver his next public address in Davao City.<\/p>\n

Roque added that he is set to hold the virtual presser in Duterte\u2019s hometown.<\/p>\n

\u201cAng alam ko po, \u2018yung huling talumpati niya sa bayan ay magaganap po sa<\/em>\u00a0Davao.\u00a0At umaasa rin po ako na isang<\/em>\u00a0press briefing\u00a0natin ay doon<\/em>\u00a0(I know he would deliver his next speech in Davao City. And I also expect that my next press briefing will be held there),\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

Roque, however, did not mention as to when Duterte would address the nation again.<\/p>\n

He also did not say as to when Duterte would return to Malaca\u00f1an Palace in Manila.<\/p>\n

Duterte usually spends his weekend with his family in his hometown, Davao City.<\/p>\n

He, however, opted to stay in Manila when he placed the entire Luzon under enhanced community quarantine, the most stringent community quarantine, in March.<\/p>\n

Duterte was supposed to return to Davao City on April 7 to join his family in celebrating the 16th birthday of his youngest child, Veronica, on April 10, but decided to stay in Manila to monitor the government\u2019s Covid-19 response efforts.<\/p>\n

Duterte on May 16 returned to Davao City after being stranded in Manila for two months due to the Covid-19 pandemic.<\/p>\n

Beginning June 1, general community quarantine (GCQ) will be imposed in Pangasinan; Cagayan Valley; Central Luzon; Calabarzon; Metro Manila, including Pateros; Central Visayas; Zamboanga City; Davao City; Cebu City; and Mandaue City.<\/p>\n

The rest of the country will be under modified GCQ.\u00a0<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
