Cracks showing after historic win


‘Harmonious’: Duterte expects naysayers to fabricate intrigue about her loyalty to Marcos.

FERDINAND “Bongbong” Marcos Jr and Sara Duterte joined forces to pull off the biggest Philippine election win in four decades. The question now is whether they can stay united over the next six years.

Election data shows Marcos owes Sara Duterte and her father, President Rodrigo Duterte, for the large margin of victory. Although Marcos beat runner-up Leni Robredo by almost 31 percentage points in the May 9 election, Sara Duterte won the race for vice-president by an even bigger amount.
