It’s official: Davao City Mayor Rodrigo Duterte will not run for president in the 2016 elections.

Duterte made the announcement past 4 p.m. on Monday at Grand Men Seng Hotel in Davao City.

Amid public clamor urging him to run for president, Duterte has repeatedly said he was not interested in seeking the top national post because of a “flawed government system,” opposition from his family, and lack of funds, among other reasons

Final answer.

It's just too much to jump as high as Mayor to President.
Pity really.

On the positive side we get to keep him here in Davao City for as long as we can
