MANILA<\/strong>\u00a0\u2013 President Rodrigo Duterte has renewed his call to his daughter, Davao City Mayor Sara \u201cInday\u201d Duterte, not to run for president in the 2022 general elections, saying the job would give her nothing but \u201cexhaustion.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cSabi ko sa anak ko, kay Inday, ano — sabi ko, \u2018Day, p***** i** \u2018wag mong pasukin \u2018yang trabaho na \u2018yan\u2019<\/em>\u00a0(I told my daughter, Inday, I said, \u2018Day, don\u2019t enter that job),\u201d he said in a taped speech before soldiers in Jolo, Sulu aired over state-run PTV-4 on Tuesday. \u201cWala ka talagang makuha diyan, pagod lang (You’ll get nothing but exhaustion).\u201d<\/p>\n

He discouraged Sara, saying the position did not even make much money as high-ranking generals could earn more than him.<\/p>\n

The only acceptable reason for running as president, he told her, is if she had something to offer the nation.<\/p>\n

\u201cSuweldo mo PHP194,000. Ang ibang\u00a0<\/em>generals\u00a0dito mas malaki pa sa suweldo ko, totoo lang. Sinabi ko kay Inday \u2018wag kang mag-presidente\u00a0<\/em>unless you see something\u00a0na kaya mo para gawain mo sa bayan<\/em>\u00a0(Your salary will be PHP194,000. Other generals earn more than me, to be honest. I told Inday, don\u2019t be President unless you see something you can do for the country),\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

According to him, if his daughter has the ambition to seek the presidency, it was not worth pursuing.<\/p>\n

He warned that there would come a time that she would also experience what he is going through.<\/p>\n

\u201cUnless you are driven by patriotism.\u00a0O \u2018yan, kung gusto mo talaga mag<\/em>-service\u00a0sa bayan mo, ah sabi ko — kaya sabi ko sa kanya<\/em>\u00a0(if you really want to serve the nation, I said) in English they say, \u2018if you cannot stand the heat in the kitchen, get out,\u2019\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

This is not the first time the President advised his daughter against seeking the highest public office.<\/p>\n

In several speeches, he also said he regretted his decision to run for president and that he was ready to step down anytime.<\/p>\n

In 2018, Duterte said he saw his daughter succeeding him soon but eventually changed his mind.<\/p>\n

Duterte previously said the presidency could both \u201ceducate\u201d and \u201cdestroy\u201d his eldest daughter.<\/p>\n

Sara, who also leads a regional political party called Hugpong ng Pagbabagpo, has neither confirmed nor denied plans to seek the presidency in 2022.<\/p>\n

She said her decision to run for president will depend on the circumstances but she could decide by January 2021.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
