MANILA<\/strong>\u00a0\u2013 Amid rumors about his health, Malaca\u00f1ang on Thursday said President Rodrigo Duterte has been working \u201cnonstop\u201d in his hometown Davao City.<\/p>\n

In a virtual Palace briefing, Presidential Spokesperson Harry Roque said Duterte is busy with a \u201cmountain\u201d of paperwork, particularly appointment papers.<\/p>\n

\u201cAlam ko po na kapag may umaalis ng Maynila kabundok po ang mga dokumento na dala namin para kay Presidente so wala pong tigil naman ang trabaho ng ating Presidente<\/em>\u00a0(I know that when he leaves Manila, we bring him a mountain of documents so he works nonstop),\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

Roque said the President is very meticulous when it comes to signing official documents.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m sure\u00a0ang ating Presidente kasi, dating mayor, iniisa-isa niya \u2018yan bago pinipirmahan so tuloy-tuloy naman po ang pagta-trabaho ng ating Presidente kahit nasaan siya<\/em>\u00a0(I\u2019m sure our President, a former mayor, is checking them one by one before he signs them so he continues to work wherever he is),\u201d he added.<\/p>\n

Roque said Duterte always assured that he does not neglect his work, regardless of whether he is in Davao City or Malaca\u00f1an Palace in Manila.<\/p>\n

\u201cKapag siya po ay nasa<\/em>\u00a0Davao, different venue\u00a0lang po \u2018yan sa pagganap ng kaniyang katungkulan<\/em>\u00a0(When he\u2019s in Davao, he still fulfills his duties but in a different venue),\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, Roque said Duterte is scheduled to hold another public address on Monday (August 24).<\/p>\n

Over the weekend, rumors swirled that the President flew to Singapore due to a health emergency.<\/p>\n

Duterte belied these rumors by appearing on a Facebook live video on Monday together with his former aide, Senator Christopher \u201cBong\u201d Go.<\/p>\n

He said he never left his hometown as a precaution against catching coronavirus disease (Covid-19).<\/p>\n

In his public address the same night, Duterte said he had no reason to hide any of his foreign trips especially if they involved the use of public funds.<\/p>\n

Duterte said he had \u201cno obligation\u201d to \u201ctravel in secret.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cSo stop this nonsense about me going to Singapore if at — I said, if at all.\u00a0Kung gusto ko pumunta, pupunta ako. Wala kayong pakialam kung gusto kong pumunta<\/em>\u00a0(If I want to go there, I will. It\u2019s none of your business if I want to go),\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

Duterte\u2019s health has always been subject to speculations since the start of his presidency.<\/p>\n

The 75-year-old President suffers from back pains, migraines, Buerger’s disease, an inflammation of small- and medium-sized blood vessels, and Barrett\u2019s esophagus, a potentially serious complication of gastroesophageal reflux disease.<\/p>\n

However, he said his health conditions do not hinder him from performing his duties as the country\u2019s highest elected official.<\/p>\n

Duterte, who is currently in his hometown Davao City, is in \u201cperpetual isolation\u201d in the sense that he is not allowed to have close contact with his Cabinet, Roque earlier said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
