President Duterte will likely stay in Davao City as the country observes All Saints’ Day and All Souls’ Day this week, according to presidential spokesperson Salvador Panelo.

The President, he said, has not told him about any plans for the long weekend and will likely use the break to rest at home.

“He will just stay at home [in Davao City]. We were together last night but he didn’t say anything. Ordinarily, he stays at home,” Panelo said in a press briefing. —Julie M. Aurelio
