It can be recalled that the two (Defensor and Duterte) during one of the Presidential debates last elections sparked the nation with their good working relations. In the said debate both praised each other, which gave birth to the team dubbed as “Duriam.”
Duterte said that he will visit the wake of the late Senator soon.
