Classical music was playing on the sound system. His driver of 11 years, Romerico, asked, "Where to, boss?"

After a night in his favorite restaurant and bar, Duterte took me and fellow Rappler reporter Editha Caduaya to his home inside a government housing compound he started decades ago. (READ: 22 things to know about 'Duterte Harry')
