My Unsolicited Advice to President-Elect Rodrigo Duterte
Here are my unsolicited advice to President-Elect Rodrigo Duterte for his initial days in power:
1. Be a leader of Reconciliation and not of Vengeance. Do not allow your administration to be used as a platform to settle long-running petty family feuds.
2. Do not touch the Constitution.
3. Do not touch the Judiciary.
4. Do not antagonize your opponents in the Senate and Congress.
5. Do not provoke the Military Establishment by implementing Leftist policies and packing your administration with your Leftist friends (a few is okay, but a lot will be provocative).
6. Do not just continue the on-going AFP Modernization, expand it.
7. Do not say or do anything that would make you appear like a stooge of Communist China.
8. Uncle Sam has the biggest muscle in our neighborhood. Make sure you remain friends.
9. Do not do anything that would scare the Business Community, both local and foreign.
10. Be discrete with your activities with the opposite sex.
11. Stop bragging about your "kills" in public. You are now the President of the 12th largest country in the world, not just a City Mayor.
12. Select the best and the brightest for your cabinet. And make sure you listen to them.
13. Focus your initial attention on fighting street crime and enforcing road discipline, areas where you have historically performed your best.
14. Repeal K-12.
15. Pray to God for help. I'm sure you will need it.
