DAVAO CITY, Feb 23 (PIA) Mayor Rodrigo Duterte
asserted that those who are calling for war in Mindanao are detached from
reality.
He said that as a Mindanaoan, he has to speak
that people here aspire more for peace than trouble.
Duterte maintained that he is going around to
tell the country of things to do to promote peace particularly in Mindanao.
Duterte said Mindanao remains a distant star
to the rest of the country and has very serious problems in the peace and
order.
“If you lose Mindanao, it will be a tragedy in
the same manner like losing one or two lives. Manila is very far from
Mindanao, which is often the battleground,” he pointed out.
Duterte said he is not yet on the track of
considering the presidency.
He said he needs to come to terms with himself
since the presidency has not yet sunk in his mind.
“I am going around promoting federalism.
If the situation is not handled properly, there will be chaos again,” Duterte
said. (PIA 11-Joey Sem G. Dalumpines)
