Davao City Mayor Sara Duterte asked Sara All Philippines 2022 organizers to forego caravan.
SARA DUTERTE — The Presidential daughter and Davao City mayor recently appealed to the organizers of the Sara All Philippines 2022 caravan to give up their plans of holding a caravan amidst the pandemic.
Mayor Sara asked organizers of a Cotabato-to-Manila caravan encouraging her to run for president to forego the motorcade, saying that it’s “extremely unwise” amidst the pandemic.
The “Sara All Philippines 2022” caravan was scheduled from November 4 to 15.
In a statement, Mayor Sara said that it’s “extremely unwise” to move around the country amidst the pandemic.
“I am urging the organizers and the supporters to translate your expression of support into something productive and relevant to society,” Mayor Sara said.

According to Mayor Sara, the caravan was unnecessary as she already made the decision as early as September not to run for the presidency in the 2022 elections.
Instead, Mayor Sara encouraged the organizers to use the money in order to feed the hungry and to initiate other activities that will benefit those who were underprivileged and have less in life.
“Let us not unnecessarily contribute to global warming. Let us save on fuel. Your overwhelming support and trust in me are not being unnoticed. They are deeply appreciated,” Mayor Sara said.
Mayor Sara’s statement came as there had been calls for her to run for president but she had insisted that she wanted to finish her third and last term as mayor of Davao City.
She filed her certificate of candidacy (COC) for mayor last October 2.
