PDP-Laban: Pagtakbo ni PDu30 sa pagka-VP suportado ng govs

Manila, Philippines – Nagpakita ng suporta ang provincial governors sa pagtanggap ni Pangulong Rodrigo Duterte sa alok ng Partido Demokratiko Pilipino-Lakas ng Bayan (PDP-Laban) party na tumakbo sa pagka-bise sa 2022 elections.

Batay sa pahayag ng PDP-Laban na pinangungunahan ni Energy Secretary Alfonsi Cusi, 41 gobernador ang pabor sa naturang desisyon.

“President Duterte could influence his successor to pursue his war on drugs, his Build, Build, Build infrastructure plan, projects for the poor, and his post-COVID 19 pandemic economic recovery roadmap, among other programs.’’

“Despite the inroads in the campaign against illegal drugs, the drug menace continues to persist. Indeed, this problem is no longer confined to urban areas; it has spread to the countryside. The next administration, with the help of President Duterte, should relentlessly pursue the war on drugs,” dagdag pa rito.

“We, provincial governors, are witness to the gains of the Build, Build, Build program. New road networks, school buildings, airports, seaports, medical facilities, and river protection and drainage systems have mushroomed in the provinces, generating economic activities, jobs and income for our people. We have to continue building and improving infrastructure to speed up urban and rural development.”

‘’The nation was on a high economic growth path until the pandemic struck in early 2020. It’s unfortunate that Covid-19 derailed economic progress. But with President Duterte’s guiding hand, the next leadership could do it. The President’s war on drugs, his campaign against corruption, his prudent use of government resources, and his incessant pursuit of good governance will all contribute to a post-pandemic environment conducive for faster economic growth,’’ giit ng grupo.

“We hope and pray that the next President and President Duterte as his Vice President could work together in making life better for our people.” RNT/FGDC
