DAVAO CITY—The eldest son of President Rodrigo Duterte, Vice Mayor Paolo Duterte, says he would like to ensure all shorelines in the country are clean if he were to have a project to help his father’s administration.

The younger Duterte said he has observed that the shorelines in tourist destinations have become littered with cigarette butts and bottles of alcoholic beverages.

Local government units should act on this to keep the country’s beaches pristine, he said.

“Maybe they can have a city ordinance preventing smoking and drinking along the shoreline,” he said.

He cited the case of the beaches of Baler, Aurora, which he had visited in the course of his father’s campaign, where visitors’ trash were dumped on the sand.

Despite this, Paolo does not think his father would ask members of their family to help him in Malacañang.  He is also not inclined to leave his job in the city if he were asked to do so.
