‘Sara Duterte could be next president after Rody’MANILA, Philippines — Presidential spokesman Salvador Panelo did not discount the possibility that Davao City Mayor Sara Duterte-Carpio might become the next president of the country, like some of the children of former presidents who followed in their parents’ footsteps. “Definitely, Mayor Sara is very strict. “So, it’s natural for her friends and her friends’ friends to support her causes because they admire Mayor Inday Sara,” he added. “We have President Duterte and Sara Duterte, so that’s why I said it,” Panelo added. “As he said, he did not interfere with Mayor Sara and I don’t think he would interfere, given his character,” Panelo said, adding that the President believes in survival of the fittest.
