THE PHILIPPINES
Duterte's party picks him as VP candidate
The governing party nominated President Rodrigo Duterte on Wednesday as its vice-presidential candidate in next year's elections. Duterte, 76, told the party's national convention that he hopes "this will allow me to continue serving the Filipino people and help lead the entire nation toward greater progress". Polls indicate strong support for Duterte running in tandem with his daughter, Sara Duterte, as the candidate for president-though he suggested he might step out of the race if she announces a bid for the top job.
