Following his recent press briefing on June 2, President-elect Rodrigo Duterte kept himself from the eyes of the media for days.

In a statement, Duterte’s executive assistant and incoming president management staff chief Bong Go said, Duterte has decided not to hold press briefings in the coming days and all of his announcements will be delivered through the state-owned television PTV4.

Duterte confirmed this through an amateur video posted on Facebook.

“I am sorry. I boycott.”

[until when are you holding a boycott?]

“Until the end of my term.”

[why?]

“Because i do not want to anymore.”

[is that decision irrevocable?]

“A lot of interviews were erroneous. There are a lot of criticisms. No interview, no criticisms, no wrong statement, nothing. So, shut up. No more interviews.”

Duterte attended to some issues after his recent press briefing in Davao City.

One of them was the issue of media killings and rampant corruption in the media sector.

Duterte clarified in his recent press briefing the different types of journalists in the country.

One of them are the ones who receive bribes to conceal the truth.

But he also said that there are those who risk their lives exposing the truth.

Duterte insists that he will not apologize for his previous statement against some journalists.

Likewise, he is not threatened if ever some media groups decide to boycott him.
