“We’re friends, still,” Duterte said during her visit to Bacolod City on Monday, November 11, brushing off the speculation that tensions had flared between her and Marcos. In Bacolod, she announced she won’t endorse candidates in next year’s midterm elections, calling it a personal decision to avoid repeating “mistakes.”
