💡 Trivia Stage set for battle of the dynasties as Digong eyes return to politics in PH

Former Philippine president Rodrigo Duterte, 79, returned to politics this week when he registered to run as mayor in his family’s stronghold, Davao city. It leaves little doubt: two of the country’s most powerful political families, the Dutertes and the Marcoses, are set for an epic struggle for power.

For the Dutertes, it could prove a battle for their survival. Rodrigo Duterte is facing an investigation by the international criminal court for crimes against humanity over his brutal war on drugs, and the family needs political clout and powerful friends.

For Marcos Jr, son and namesake of the late dictator Ferdinand Marcos Sr, midterm elections next year will be crucial to cementing his legacy before he reaches the end of his single six-year term limit.
