Analyst's take on Duterte's trip to Japan for Emperor's enthronement

GMA Network’s resident political analyst Richard Heydarian on Tuesday gave his insights on President Rodrigo Duterte's trip to Japan, which the analyst thinks has reached a "golden age" of bilateral relations with the Philippines.

Duterte flew to Tokyo to attend the enthronement ceremony of Emperor Naruhito.

The Palace previously said Duterte will not attend the event, but the President later on changed his mind. After the enthronement, Duterte decided to cut short his trip due to an "unbearable" back pain.
