There
is a saying in the maritime profession, that in case of an accident the captain
will always go down with the ship.
Amidst
the declaration of Philippines of Code Red Sub level-2 , President Rodrigo Roa
Duterte approved the implementation of a month long community quarantine in the entire Metro Manila.
And
because of that, Duterte decided to stay in Malacanang during the moth long
community quarantine of the National Capital Regon (NCR) to be hands one in

It
was reported that the President rejected the request of his common-law wife,
Honeylet Avanceña, for him to fly back to his home in Davao City, according to Presidential
Spokesperson Salvador Panelo.
Duterte,
as quoted by Panelo, said: “No, (I won’t return to Davao City). The face of the
country is Manila and the President had to be here so I’ll be here.”
The
Presidential Spokesperson said the Chief Executive opts to hold a daily meeting
with IATF-EID to assess the Covid-19 outbreak in the country.
“The
President had to undertake stringent measures because he’s expecting a spike.
He wants to see how effective these measures would be,” he said. “All we have
to do is really observe protocols, personal hygiene. Keep washing your hands.
Distance yourself from the person near you. That’s a very simple task to do.”
