Revealing his “last card” for dealing with the water controversy, President Rodrigo Duterte has threatened to

“expropriate everything” if he is not satisfied with the explanations of the persons involved in the alleged onerous water distribution contracts.Duterte also warned about the suspension of the privilege of the writ of habeas corpus to compel the persons behind the water deals to appear before him and explain why they “screwed” the country.

“Gusto ko magharap silang lahat dito sa akin. Isa-isahin ko sila. Ang abugado ng mga p***** i** gumawa ng kontrata. Sino ‘yung mga opisyal ng MWSS noon? Tanungin ko sila. what the f*** did you do and screwed the country?” he said at the oath-taking ceremony of newly promoted fire, jail, and coast guard officials in Malacañang.Duterte remained unfazed about lawsuits if the government pursues the expropriation of the water services. “Magdemanda ka nang magdemanda.

Outraged by the allegedly onerous deals, Duterte earlier said he wants to confront the water company officials as well as the government lawyers who crafted the alleged irregular contracts about the matter. Duterte, however, refused to forge any compromise with the water firms, insisting on plans to jail and sue them for economic plunder.
