Key
Points
  • The race to the Malacañang Palace is on.
  • Friday, October 8, was officially the last day for candidates to enter the Philippine presidential election and, while there may be some surprises yet, the public now has a fairly good idea of who will battle it out on election day in May next year.
  • The race will decide who replaces the incumbent President Rodrigo Duterte, who is barred from running by the constitution, which limits presidents to single terms of six years.
