In the recent approval, the draft constitution can still allow President Rodrigo Duterte to hold the same position for another 8 years. The draft constitution does not hold the highest ranking official to unyield. Under the Federal state, during the transition government, Pres. Duterte can still be the Chief Executive of the country until 2030.
Julio Teehankee, chairman of the Concom’s sub-committee on political reforms, said there is no ban prohibiting Duterte from seeking the presidency under the proposed federal constitution. He added that its like a "reboot" or a "reset".
