President Rodrigo Duterte will meet with his partymates at the ruling Partido Demokratiko Pilipino-Lakas ng Bayan (PDP-Laban) following the infighting between party officials.

Senator Aquilino “Koko” Pimentel III said Duterte, who is the chairman of the PDP-Laban, said the President would meet with his partymates on August 9 in an undisclosed location.
