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?

Statement of Congressman Paolo Z. Duterte on the 2026 State of the Nation Address

Sinabi ng Pangulo na nalulungkot siya sa kinakaharap na kasong plunder ng kanyang pinsan na si Martin Romualdez. Dagdag pa niya, bilang Pangulo ng Pilipinas at hindi lamang ng kanyang pamilya o mga kaibigan, kailangan niyang tanggapin ang nangyayari.

Maganda sanang pakinggan ang pahayag na iyan kung pareho rin ang ipinapakitang malasakit sa sambayanang Pilipino. Habang naaawa siya sa kanyang pinsan, kailan siya huling naawa sa milyun-milyong Pilipinong lugmok sa kahirapan, dumadaing sa walang tigil na pagtaas ng presyo ng pagkain, mataas na singil sa kuryente, at patuloy na pagliit ng halaga ng kanilang kinikita?

Marami na namang matatamis na pangako ang narinig natin. Marami na namang ipinagmamalaking tagumpay. Ngunit may isang bagay na kapansin-pansing hindi niya matalakay—ang mga isyung matagal nang hinihingan ng sagot ng taumbayan.

First District Office, Vice Mayor Rigo Duterte II Extend Round-the-Clock Relief to Talomo Flood Victims

DAVAO CITY – As floodwaters forced families to leave the safety of their homes on Friday evening, First District Representative Paolo "Pulong" Duterte and Vice Mayor Rodrigo "Rigo" Duterte II moved quickly to ensure that those affected were not left to face the ordeal alone.

Continuous heavy rains caused a nearby creek to overflow, sending floodwaters into homes in Barangay Talomo and prompting local authorities to carry out a preemptive evacuation to keep residents safe.

Through the Office of the First Congressional District and the Office of the Vice Mayor, immediate relief assistance was delivered to families taking shelter in evacuation centers, providing essential supplies to help them through the difficult night.

Statement of Rep. Paolo Duterte (July 20, 2026)

Nalingaw gyud ko sa House Prosecution Panel.

Karon pa man mo nagsige'g pangayo og subpoena sa mga dokumento nga kaniadto kamo ra man mismo ang nagkupot. Apil pa gyud ang income tax returns nga inyong gi-submit na sa Senado ug unya giuli ra usab sa BIR.

So unsa man gyud? Nawala? Nahikalimtan? O karon pa ninyo na-realize nga kinahanglan diay na?

Abi nako pag giaprubahan ninyo ang Articles of Impeachment, kumpleto na ang inyong ebidensya. Mao man unta na ang pasabot sa form and substance. Dili kay "approve sa ta, unya mangita lang ta'g supporting documents human."

PAHAYAG NI REP. PAOLO “PULONG” DUTERTE (July 14, 2026)

Sabi ng Malacañang, “Hindi sakop ng ating gobyerno ang polisiya ng U.S.”

Ah, talaga? Maayo. At least karon nakahinumdom mo nga sovereign country diay ta. Congratulations!
Pero naa lang koy gamay nga pangutana, asa man nang inyong “sovereignty” katong gikidnap ninyo si President Rodrigo Duterte ug gipadala sa The Hague?

Naka-leave? Naka-day off? O selective ra gyud inyong pagka-sovereign?
Kapag Amerika ang nagsalita, “Hindi tayo sakop!”
Kapag ICC ang may gusto kay Duterte, “Ay, Interpol cooperation lang po.”
