President Duterte, Trump to meet in Vietnam for the first time

President Rodrigo Duterte and Trump’s meeting came weeks after the Philippine leader said he was now on friendlier terms with the US, saying they have “redeemed themselves a lot.”

To date, the two leaders had at least two phone conversations – first in December 2016 and the second was last April.

"I think most likely they, meaning they, the US will seek out our President at best a meeting on the sidelines of the APEC," he added.If the two leaders will meet, they will likely discuss national security both at the country and regional levels and their common "desire to grow the different engines of the global economy," Lim said.

The official, however, said that the final schedules for Duterte's bilateral meetings during the APEC would be finalized after the foreign ministers' meeting on November 8.President Rodrigo Duterte is set to meet with United States President Donald Trump for the first time during the Asia Pacific Economic Cooperation (Apec) Summit in Vietnam this week.

Duterte is scheduled to fly to Vietnam on Wednesday to attend the summit, which started November 6.

Department of Foreign Affairs (DFA) Assistant Secretary Leo Herrera Lim said Duterte and Trump would first meet at the welcome dinner on November 8.

“There are several opportunities both at the welcome dinner on the 8th and then there will also be several engagements including the gala dinner and the meetings itself,” Lim said in a Palace briefing.

The US had earned the ire of Duterte, accusing our longtime ally of hypocrisy and bullying over its criticisms on his vicious campaign against illegal drugs.

After his attendance to the Apec, Trump is scheduled to visit the Philippines on November 12 to 14 for the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (Asean) Summit in Manila.

Kris Aquino To Critics "Utang Na Loob Niyo Sa Tatay Ko Ang Kalayaan Niyo"

“And the truth is you do owe this man the fact that you have FREEDOM OF SPEECH, FREEDOM OF EXPRESSION & FREEDOM OF THE PRESS TODAY.” Ito ang mga sinabi ni Kris Aquino laban sa mga kritiko ng kanyang pamilya. Ayon pa kay Kris, "may bayag" o matapang daw ang tatay niya dahil handa raw itong mamatay para sa bayan. Kung tinatamasa ng mga Filipino ang kalayaan ngayon, ito ay dahil sa ginawang sakri­pisyo ni dating Senador Benigno ‘Ninoy’ Aquino Jr., ayon sa kanyang bunsong anak na si Kris Aquino. Sa Instagram post ni Kris, binanggit nito na ang kanyang ama ay ‘may bayag’ noong isakripisyo ang kanyang buhay para sa kalayaan ng bansa mula sa diktaduryang Marcos. Tinutukoy ng television host at aktres ang pag-uwi ni Ninoy sa bansa noong Agosto 21, 1983 sa kabila ng babala na may mangyayaring masama sa kanya. Binaril si Ninoy sa tarmac ng Manila International Airport (ngayon ay Ninoy Aquino International Airport). Ang kanyang pagkamatay ang naging mitsa ng pagsiklab...

ASEAN 2017: Tatak Pinas, tatak Duterte

Katatapos lang maghost ng Pilipinas ng ASEAN Summit kung saan dumalo ang lahat ng mga malalaking bansa na hindi sakop ng rehiyon tulad ng US, Japan, China at Russia at nakipag-usap pa sa mga member states.                                                              At andaming tumaas ang kilay. Bakit binibigyan ng halaga ang ASEAN sa liit ng ating parte sa mundong ginagalawan. Simple lang. Dahil kay Duterte at ang halaga ng ASEAN sa ekonomiya ng lahat. Tayo ang pampitong pinakamalaking eco­nomy sa buong mundo kahit lampas kalaha­ting bilyon lang tayong katao. Kontrolado natin ang South China Sea (West Philippine Sea) na isa primary shipping route sa mundo. Tayo ang may pinamakama­laking Muslim population at lahat ng member-states ng ASEAN ay may growth rate na lampas 5%. Ibig sabihin, walang bansang pabigat sa ASEAN. Ka...
