"I Will Give You A Whack"
' Ohhhh, Bangko Sentral Governor Amando Tetangco, I will give you Such "a whack"! And I think you 'know' what I Mean by a "whack", you, you, you potential 'drug user' meanie you! How dare you defy me, Me your exalted supreme 'leader', your savior of all things, me, the Only person on Earth that is able to save My country from the ravages of American induced drug apathy. You are a 'brave' man Amando! Very brave indeed. In any other drug torn country you would no doubt recieve some sort of 'bravery' metal. But alas, here in the Phillipines you will recieve only a wooden 'momento', you Know, a Box, about Six feet long, two feet wide and one foot deep. And if you Still don't know what I'm talking about, I'll be happy to hop on my moped tonight and 'drive by' your shanty.
No one in their right mind defies me Amando, keeper of our money. Well, that is Except Mine. I would Never keep my American greenbacks in a bank that also holds our own national currency. It would be a travesty to defile our Own money by having it on the same shelf with that nasty, filthy, drug laced American dollars! That's why I keep my 'personal' fortune someplace where it will not be able to contaminate our Philippino Peso. You see, I am a very astute 'dictator', wise in the way of proper dictatorship, and even wiser in the way of proper intimidation of Anyone who dares stand up to me.
Amando, I say This to your 'brave' face, "I am going to charge all of you there criminally ... and count 1-2-3 and if you don't resign I will treat you as drug addicts." "You guys there are all corrupt. You better watch out. I will bring you down. Tetangco is about to retire, better prepare there, I will give you a whack." I am the Only Phillipino that is 'not' corrupt. There are absolutly No 'skeletons' in My closet. Well, there may be a few pushing up daisys somewhere, but Not in my Closet!
And you thought I could not even count that far! Do you really want to be on my little 'Suspected Drug User' list? Is your family Really ready for your Funeral? Just how 'brave' Are you Amando? You 'know' that I cannot control these crazy 'vigilantes' that have been, without my 'approval' of course, going around slaughtering drug users and whores all across our wonderful country, don't you. Who Are those crazy guys? Everyone must be Totally scared to 'death' of them by now, or at Least totally Dead. So, I think that you do Not want them to 'visit' you in the middle of the night, And, while giving You your deserved "whack", 'accidentally' 'whacking' some of your innocent family members, now Do you. Do you really want to hear that Ka-Boom,Ka-Boom,Ka-Boom at your door Amando? Sweetdreams my 'friend'.
Everyone, at least everyone who wants to see Tomorrow, supports my 'efforts' at ridding our country of 'suspected' drug users. And while it's 'true' that in the process there will be Many Innocent 'suspects' who will be murdered right along with a few of those who might have actually been 'guilty', this is the 'price' the Philippines must pay for 'safe' streets and 'honest' bankers. Remember, Jesus will sort out the innocent dead from the guilty. That is Not My 'job' as your ruthless 'dictator'. 'Only' about 6,000 'suspects' have been humanely Killed, and yes, some would erroneously use the word 'Murdered', since I 'took over' my country. I am surprised at such a Low number! Surely we can do better than That! I see drug pushers, and users, and whores everywhere I look! I'm adding More to my 'suspect list' everyday! We are always looking for More well trained 'vigilantes' to help rid our country of 'suspects', and those who would be brave, and stupid enough to defy me. But, we are making headway.
I personally conducted a nationwide 'poll', and one hundred percent of those who answered that poll 'agreed' that I am doing the 'correct' thing with my 'eradication program', and that only a Fool would want to be on my 'suspect' list. So There! What better 'proof' does one need? Everyone 'backs' me! Only a Fool wouldn't!
Amando, while I sharpen my pencil, get a 'clue', don't be one of those 'fools', it's not too late for you to 'disappear' on your Own, or I will give you Such a "whack"!' :/:/:/

Philippines' Duterte wants to give bank governor 'a whack', charge staff
| MANILA
MANILA Philippine President Rodrigo Duterte lashed out at the country's central bank on Thursday, telling its governor "I will give you a whack" and threatening criminal charges against the country's anti-money laundering body for supporting graft.Duterte vented his fury during a speech announcing next year's 3.35 trillion pesos ($67 billion) state budget and accused the Anti-Money Laundering Council (AMLC) of failing to support his war on drugs by tracking the flow of drug money.The maverick former mayor was in the middle of an unusually placid speech ahead of the holiday period, but became angry when he mentioned his crackdown on drugs and said those who should be chasing the money trail were all politicized and tainted.
He took aim at the AMLC, which is chaired by respected Bangko Sentral Governor Amando Tetangco, whom Duterte has been urging to extend his tenure beyond the 12 years he soon will have served.
"I am going to charge all of you there criminally ... and count 1-2-3 and if you don't resign I will treat you as drug addicts," he said of the AMLC.
"The reason why you were put there is because you have a job to do. If you cannot know your job get out from that office."
He added: "You guys there are all corrupt. You better watch out. I will bring you down. Tetangco is about to retire, better prepare there, I will give you a whack."
Tetangco did not immediately respond to a request for comment and the executive director of the AMLC was not available for comment when Reuters contacted the council.
Deputy central bank governor Diwa Guinigundo said the Bangko Sentral was independent and it would not comment on the president's remarks.
"One thing we know, we are not serving politics," he told reporters.
More than 6,000 people have been killed since Duterte took office in July and launched a fierce crackdown on the drugs trade. Suspected dealers and addicts have suffered the brunt of violence but few inroads have been made toward shutting down the narcotics kingpins.
Police say a third of the deaths were suspected peddlers who resisted arrest and the remainder were deaths still under investigation, some of which were likely victims of vigilantes.
Duterte gave no details on how the state agencies had been uncooperative with the drugs war, or specify the extent of corruption he was accusing them of. He was apparently upset about late submission of an assessment report on money laundering, but did not elaborate.
Duterte's singling out of Tetangco for criticism was a surprise given his efforts to keep him as governor, despite such a move being against the bank's regulations.
Tetangco has been credited by economists for his stewardship of an institution at the helm of one of the world's fastest growing economies.
