Answer:

President Rodrigo Duterte delivered his 5th State of the Nation Address (SONA) on Monday, July 27, against the backdrop of a pandemic that has disrupted the lives of millions of Filipinos and which continues to spread across the Philippines.

Duterte used most of his annual address, which lasted for nearly two hours, to threaten “oligarchs,” failing to go into detail on a pandemic recovery roadmap for the country which had been earlier promised by Malacañang.

Unlike past speeches, the President’s second to the last SONA was delivered to a limited audience of 50 key Congress and Cabinet officials who have been crucial in delivering pet projects of the administration. The cap on attendees was put in place due to physical distancing restrictions.

The 2020 SONA was also among Duterte's longest ones so far. It included the mention of 21 priority bills he wanted tackled in the remaining two years of his presidency.

Here’s a quick summary of all the important points mentioned:

Coronavirus pandemic – After the usual introductions of top officials, Duterte opens his speech stressing the toll the pandemic has taken on the Philippines as the virus “snuffed” out dreams of prosperity and had the world living in a “troubled time.” He mentions hopes for a vaccine and thanks frontliners who risk their lives to respond to those most affected by the disease.
