Duterte says God told him to stop cursing

President Duterte, who once called the pope a “son of a bitch” and told US President Barack Obama to “go to hell,” says he has promised to God he won’t spew expletives again.

Duterte’s profanities have become his trademark, especially when threatening to kill drug dealers as part of his war on illegal drugs that has left thousands dead since he took office at the end of June.

Duterte made the stunning pledge on arrival in his hometown of Davao City late Thursday from a trip to Japan.

While flying home, he said he was looking at the sky while everyone was sound asleep, some snoring, and he heard a voice that said “if you don’t stop epithets, I will bring this plane down now.”

“And I said, ‘Who is this?’ So, of course, ‘it’s God,” he said.

“So, I promise God to…not express slang, cuss words, and everything. So you guys hear me right always because (a) promise to God is a promise to the Filipino people.”

Duterte’s vow was met with applause, but he cautioned: “Don’t clap too much or else this may get derailed.”

He shocked the dominant Roman Catholics last year when he fired an expletive while expressing his disgust over a monstrous traffic jam that trapped him while Pope Francis was visiting Manila. “I wanted to call. ‘Pope, you son of a bitch, go home.’ Don’t visit here anymore,” he told a mob of supporters, some of whom laughed.
He later apologized after Filipino bishops expressed shock and outrage.

It’s not certain if the 71-year-old President, who has been compared to US Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump because of his brash language, can keep his promise. Duterte has made a similar pledge in June when it became evident that he had won the May 9 presidential elections overwhelmingly on a pledge to end crimes, especially illegal drugs and corruption.

He said then that he was enjoying his last moments as a “rude person” because “when I become President, when I take my oath of office…that will be a different story. There will be a metamorphosis.”

It didn’t take long for Duterte to break the promise. He has repeatedly leveled SOB-laced tirades against Obama, United Nations Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon, a few outspoken opposition politicians, and human rights advocates, while heaping praises on Chinese and Russian leaders.
