No more burning of effigies and wild protesters outside the House of Representatives. Everything went well.ย Everyone was looking forward to his first SONA. In fact, a few of our favorite celebrities tuned-in earlier and took to Twitter their thoughts about Duterte’s #SONA2016.
Let’s start reading them, shall we?
Sunshine Cruz, posted on Twitter how she’s excited about it.
Excited and looking forward to a better Philippines. God bless you our dear President. #SONA2016

Marian Rivera – Dantes wishes Director Cathy Garcia or Joyce Bernal would direct Digong’sย next State of the Nation Address.
Director Cathy Garcia is the woman behind the blockbuster movies like One More Chance, Four Sisters and a Wedding, just to name a few. While Direk Joyce Bernal headed the movies Kimmy Dora, Segunda Mano, and a lot more!
Sana sa next na #SONADu30 si @DirekCathyG o kaya si @bbjoycebernal mag direk o kung mas matagal pa ang speech eh si Direk Lav Diaz #LoveEet

Furthermore, the commercial/actress described Digong in three words: Simple, Straightforward, and Sincere. Ideally, those are the three qualities of an effective leader.
Simple. Straightforward. Sincere. #SONA2016

Vice Ganda also shared his reflection about the SONA. He posted that he will continue to pray for Digong.
As an ordinary citizen of this country I will continue to pray for the President. I will let God guide him. God bless President Duterte.

Hopefully, Duterte’s promises are not meant to be broken. Just like the celebrities, I am also proud and hopeful that he will be able to execute his platforms effectively and efficiently.
