Duterte decries human rights violator tag: ‘Why only me?’

“Bakit ako lang?” (Why only me?)

This was the question raised by President Rodrigo Duterte, as he volunteered to host a “world summit” on human rights in the midst of various criticisms he has been receiving for his brutal campaign against illegal drugs.

“We should call a summit. And I will volunteer to make the Philippines the venue,” Duterte said during a late night press conference in Vietnam on Thursday.
