Petition to Bring Former President Rodrigo Duterte Back Home


To the Leaders of the Philippines and the International Community,
We, the undersigned Filipino people, stand united in calling for the fair and just treatment of our former President, Rodrigo Roa Duterte, and for his rightful return home.
President Duterte never sought power for personal ambition, he was forced to run for the presidency by the overwhelming clamor of the people who believed in his leadership. He had no interest in politics beyond serving his fellow Filipinos, and when he decided to run, it was purely to serve the country, just as he had done for decades as the Mayor of Davao City. Under his leadership, Davao became one of the safest cities in the Philippines, proving his dedication to law and order.
He never changed, from being a humble city mayor to becoming the President, he remained the same man. He never pretended to please anyone, never tried to fit into the mold of traditional politicians and always showed his true self to the people. His leadership was tough but sincere, and his love for the country was undeniable.
During his presidency, he remained true to his mission: to fight illegal drugs, criminality, and corruption, despite the challenges and opposition. While the Philippines may not have become economically prosperous under his term, he was a leader we could rely on in times of crisis, especially during the COVID-19 pandemic. We are grateful that during one of the most difficult times in history, we had a leader who stood firm and acted decisively to protect the Filipino people.
Now, despite his sacrifices and dedication, he is facing unjust persecution. A man who fought for his country should not be punished for doing what he believed was right.
We, the Filipino people, demand that our government and the international community ensure his fair and just treatment. President Duterte deserves to return home with dignity and without fear of retaliation.
BRING PRESIDENT DUTERTE BACK HOME!
