Arnold Clavio after hearing President Duterte’s speech: “Anuman ang kulay politika mo, isantabi muna”

Journalist Arnold Clavio encouraged the people to unite regardless of their political beliefs in his Instagram post.

Clavio who watched Duterte’s first United Nations General Assembly speech said that the people should read the speech of the President and “cherish” it.

He even shared some of the highlights of Duterte’s speech which according to him were considered as important issues that should be discussed.

“Anuman ang kulay politika mo, isantabi muna. Balikan, pakinggan at namnamin ang naging talumpati ni Pangulong Duterte sa harap ng iba’t ibang lider sa United Nations General Assembly,” said Clavio.

“Kahit sa isang kisapmata ay magkaisa tayo bilang iisang lahing Pilipino. Narito ang ilang highlights ng kanyang talumpati. Ang paninindigan niya sa ilang mahalagang isyu na kailangan na malaman ng lahat,” he added.

The journalist recently faced issues after Sarah Balabagan claimed that they had a relationship when she was only 16 years old.

Duterte made his speech on September 23 (Manila Time) and one of the most memorable remarks of the President was the stance of the Philippines on the South China Sea dispute.

?? ?? ?? Anuman ang kulay politika mo, isantabi muna. Balikan, pakinggan at namnamin ang naging talumpati ni Pangulong Duterte sa harap ng iba’t ibang lider sa United Nations General Assembly. Kahit sa isang kisapmata ay magkaisa tayo bilang iisang lahing Pilipino. Narito ang ilang highlights ng kanyang talumpati. Ang paninindigan niya sa ilang mahalagang isyu na kailangan na malaman ng lahat: (Sa COVID 19) “The world is in the race to find a safe and effective vaccine. When the world finds that vaccine, access to it must not be denied nor withheld. It should be made available to all, rich and poor.” (Frontliners): “We salute all frontliners who put their lives on the line even in countries not their own. So also do we honor and recognize the healthcare professionals who selflessly answered the call to combat the COVID-19 pandemic despite its virulence and unknown characteristics.” (West Philippine Sea): “The Philippines affirms that commitment in the South China Sea in accordance with UNCLOS and the 2016 Arbitral Award. The Award is now part of international law, beyond compromise and beyond the reach of passing governments to dilute, diminish or abandon. We firmly reject attempts to undermine it.” “I therefore call on the stakeholders in the South China Sea, the Korean Peninsula, the Middle East and Africa: if we cannot be friends as yet, then in God’s name, let us not hate each other too much. I heard it once said, and I say it to myself in complete agreement.” “Let us empower UN – reform it – to meet the challenges of today and tomorrow. Let us strengthen it so it can fully deliver its mandate to maintain peace and security, uphold justice and human rights, and promote freedom and social progress for all. After all, we are the United Nations.” Kung sinuman ang gumawa ng kanyang speech na ito, napakaganda ng pagkakasulat. Klaro. Malinaw. Mararamdaman mo na kay sarap maging Pilipino. Mabuhay!!! ? ???

“The award is now part of international law, beyond compromise and beyond the reach of passing governments to dilute, diminish, or abandon,” said Duterte.

Even the critics of President Duterte praised the said speech and hoping that the government was serious in defending the territory of the country.
