BORN AND RAISED BY DABAWENYOS — Paolo Duterte

I read a post recently that seemed to suggest that Davao City’s progress and identity can be traced mainly to the Dutertes.

I think that needs a little clarification.

Davao is not about the Dutertes. Davao is about Dabawenyos.

I was born and raised here. I grew up seeing ordinary Dabawenyos—workers, entrepreneurs, farmers, professionals, drivers, teachers, vendors, public servants and business owners—do their part in making this city what it is today.

STATEMENT OF REP. PAOLO “PULONG” DUTERTE
Mr. Matibag, huwag kang Marites.

Mr. Matibag, huwag kang Marites.

Kung tungkol sa mga flood control project sa aking distrito ang pinag-uusapan, nasa DPWH ang records, procurement documents, contracts, at iba pang detalye.

Hindi kailangang magpakitang-gilas sa media na parang may inilalabas na bagong impormasyon gayong ang mga dokumentong kailangan ninyo ay nasa ahensiyang inyong iniimbestigahan..

Statement of Congressman Paolo "Pulong" Duterte "re-epicenter" (August 25, 2026)

Boying Remulla, bago ninyo ideklara na Davao City ang “epicenter” ng flood control corruption noong Duterte administration, baka puwedeng silipin muna ninyo ang mismong records ng DPWH.

Nang maupo ako bilang Congressman ng 1st District of Davao City noong 2019, DPWH XI furnished me a copy of its list of completed projects covering 2020–2022. I have my copy.

Kung wala kayo, sabihin ninyo at padadalhan ko kayo. Para pareho tayong may binabasang dokumento bago magbitiw ng mabibigat na akusasyon.

STATEMENT OF REP. PAOLO "PULONG" DUTERTE (August 2, 2026)

Murag si kinsa kung makasulti si Defense Secretary Gibo Teodoro nga ang mga elected officials nga lahi ug baruganan sa West Philippine Sea kinahanglan daw mang-resign.

Hoy, Gibo, hinay-hinay lang. Ang mga elected officials wala nimo gipili. Ang mga Pilipino ang nagbutang nila sa pwesto. Kung naa kay ebidensya nga traydor sila sa nasud, then file the appropriate case ug ipakita ang ebidensya. Ayaw nang sigeg pa-resign-resign kay murag ikaw ang tag-iya sa gobyerno.

Kataw-anan pud nga ang usa pa gyud nga adunay dual citizenship ang murag pinakauna mangayo ug loyalty test sa uban. Bar topnotcher man unta, pero ambot lang kung katuohan ba.

STATEMENT OF REP. PAOLO "PULONG" DUTERTE (July 30, 2026)

First of all, I would like to thank DPWH Secretary Vince Dizon for his commitment to include the Davao City Flood Masterplan in the proposed 2027 national budget.

Kung matuman ni, maayo kaayo. Dili lang para sa Dabawenyo, kundi para sa umaabot nga mga henerasyon nga dili na kinahanglan manglangoy kada kusog ang ulan.

Pero, Sec. Vince, pasayloa ko kung medyo lisod na kaayo mi motuo dayon sa mga saad gikan sa national government. Daghan na kaayong "coming soon" nga hangtod karon, loading gihapon. Ang uban, murag teleserye—daghan ug trailer, walay ending.

Statement of Rep. Paolo Duterte (July 29, 2026) Tama ka, Vince Dizon. Nakakagalit talaga.

Tama ka, Vince Dizon. Nakakagalit talaga.

Nakakagalit na ang mga taga-Talomo had to endure another devastating flood seven years after 2019. Nakakagalit na despite the existence of a JICA Davao Flood Control Master Plan submitted to the national government as early as 2023, it remained unacted upon.

At mas nakakagalit na ikaw mismo ang umamin na ngayon mo lang nalaman ang tungkol dito at funding will only be proposed under the 2027 GAA.

So ang tanong, asa man diay ang plano sa tulo ka tuig? Natulog? O gipatulog?
