Philippine leader takes thinly veiled dig at US
None
VIENTIANE- Philippine President Rodrigo Duterte took a thinly veiled dig at the United States on Thursday, complaining that colonizers who killed many Filipinos are now raising human rights concerns with him.
President Barack Obama was among several world leaders who listened to Duterte's brief speech at the East Asia Summit in the Laotian capital of Vientiane.
Obama earlier canceled a meeting with Duterte after the Philippine leader referred to him in comments to reporters as a "son of a bitch" and warned him not to discuss the deaths of thousands of suspects in an anti-drug campaign.
