THE administration’s “Alyansa para sa Bagong Pilipinas,” which is composed of the five largest political parties in the country, remains unshaken and united as its senatorial slate continues to gain broad and growing support nationwide.
This was the firm assurance of campaign manager and Navotas City Rep. Toby Tiangco as he underscored the coalition’s strength and the clear endorsement it is receiving from the Filipino people.
“The five-party Alyansa para sa Bagong Pilipinas, composed of Partido Federal ng Pilipinas (PFP), Lakas-CMD, National People’s Coalition (NPC), National Unity Party (NUP), and Nacionalista Party (NP), is intact,” Tiangco said in a statement.
He said Alyansa’s momentum is being fueled not just by traditional alliances but by a groundswell of public support.
“Our candidates continue to receive overwhelming support both at the national and local level, and even from grassroots organizations,” he said.
“This is something that we welcome and are proud of because politics is about addition, not division. It is about building coalitions. And in any election, every bit of support counts,” he added.
The Alyansa ticket is composed of reelectionist Senators Bong Revilla, Pia Cayetano, Lito Lapid and Francis Tolentino; former senators Tito Sotto, Ping Lacson, and Manny Pacquiao; ACT-CIS Rep. Erwin Tulfo, Deputy Speaker Camille Villar, Makati City mayor Abby Binay and former interior secretary Benhur Abalos.
Tiangco highlighted the strategic importance of each candidate in the slate, all of whom were carefully selected by President Ferdinand R. Marcos Jr. himself.
“Ang mga kandidato ng Alyansa ay personal na pinili ni Pangulong Marcos dahil sa kanilang mahusay na kakayahan at matatag na karanasan (President Marcos personally picked the candidates of Alyansa because of their skills and experience),” he said. “The Alyansa candidates are part of the administration slate because they are committed to the vision we all share: Bagong Pilipinas.”
He made it clear that the coalition’s mission is to rally support behind common goals and ensure the election of candidates who deserve the public’s trust.
