MANILA, Philippines - After a year of electoral campaigns, a day of voting and weeks of ballot counting, the Filipino people have finally spoken. We have now elected former Davao City Mayor Rodrigo Duterte and former Camarines Sur’s Third District Representative, Leni Robredo as the new President and Vice President of the Republic of the Philippines.
Weeks have past since the Comelec has proclaimed the two lawmaker as the new leaders of the country. So much buzz has surrounded this election. From the concession of other presidentiables to Rodrigo Duterte, to Bongbong Marcos’ filing of electoral protest against Leni Robredo, it is safe to assume that this election is one of the most buzzworthy yet. But after it all, and despite all the issues surrounding the elections, light has been shed and prayers have been answered. However, how well do we actually know our President-elect and Vice President-elect? Have we taken the time to assess what now can be considered as two of the most powerful people in the country?
Some argue that the tough and decisive Rodrigo Duterte can be balanced by the nurturing and motherly characteristics of Leni Robredo, some still vote otherwise. Debates remain between the pro and the con of the upcoming government, with majority being stuck in the middle. Can the punisher truly hold his promise of alleviating crimes? And can Robredo’s “tsinelas” leadership take us to a more progressive tomorrow?
If you haven’t made your mind up yet, don’t fret as M2.0 Communications, one of the leading PR agencies in the Philippines, brings you an infographic that tackles the different lives of our new leaders, their potentials as the new holders of the highest seats in the government, political backgrounds and notable achievements, as well as their plans for the country in the next six years.
