The Office of the President (OP) is seeking a budget of P8.18 billion for fiscal year 2022, the final year of the Duterte administration.

The pandemic is raging, the country is in recession, and many people remain hungry and unemployed. Faced with these urgent concerns, President Duterte has supposedly accomplished much to address these problems but intends to do more in the closing strength of his presidency.

The government is taking steps to facilitate a safe reopening of the economy but it will need the cooperation of the public.

In three weeks, President Duterte will deliver his sixth and final State of the Nation Address (SONA) as his administration battles a pandemic and strives to complete an unfinished task to end drugs and corruption in the country.

It still won’t be the usual traditional State of the Nation Address (SONA) this year.

A great deal remains to be done even after the Duterte administration has made accomplishments in the last five years.

President Duterte is not inclined to brag about his legacy to the nation when he makes his final State of the Nation Address (SONA) later this month.

Getting Filipinos vaccinated against the coronavirus disease will be one of the priorities of President Duterte in the final year of his six-year term.

President Duterte, catapulted to office on a campaign promise to eliminate illegal drugs and corruption in 2016, is on the final stretch of his presidency.
