"I will request, maybe tomorrow, for the Philippine contingent to fold tents and come home,? Duterte told reporters on Saturday in Davao City.
Peace talks under Duterte?s predecessor Benigno Aquino ended half-way into his six-year term after rebel demands could not be met.
?I told soldiers to go home to their camps, clean their guns and prepare for the long struggle,? he said.
Now, said Duterte during a visit to his parents grave on Saturday, only a ?compelling reason? could make him resume peace negotiations.
Duterte is still pursuing separate peace negotiations with Muslim rebels.
