MANILA, Philippines — President Rodrigo Duterte will spend the Holy Week with his family in his hometown Davao City, Malacañang said Tuesday.

“Bahay. As far as I know, (sa) bahay lang (siya),” Presidential Spokesperson Salvador Panelo said in a Palace briefing when asked where the President will spend the Lenten season.

But on Wednesday, Duterte is set to lead the campaign rally of Partido Demokratiko Pilipino–Lakas ng Bayan (PDP-Laban) in Batangas City.
