President Duterte has been the topic of local and international media as his statement was misinterpreted or misquoted. News headlines stated that Duterte cursed at Obama, which prompted the latter to cancel the meeting with the former.
Some people think that poor translation was the cause of misquotation and the media circus. One netizen explained in social media that the expletive was not directed towards President Obama, but it is Duterte’s expression out of anger or frustration.
President Duterte stated, “I am a Pres. of a sovereign state and we have long ceased to be a colony. I do not have any master except the Filipino people. Nobody, but nobody. You must be respectful. Do not just throw away question and statements. P*****g ina- mumurahin talaga kita diyan sa forum.”
