Couldn't help but cry yesterday. President Noy was the reluctant president who achieved more than the Filipinos hoped for. From infrastructure to education and health, he set the road straight. And we had peace. The marginalized were cared for. The country earned international respect.
President Noy was the unassuming son who quietly stood beside his mother, reprimanded his erring sister Kris for her misgivings, genuinely loved his special child of a nephew Joshua, and enjoyed the company of friends with a smile on his face.
He was a great man.

Those dds trolls demonized this guy when he actually improved the economy , provided employment and won a case against China when China attempted to steal Spratlys. Sars pandemic was not able to enter Philippines under is administration.
He is not a perfect President but he is better than Duterte
