Vice Presidential hopeful Sara Duterte on Monday called on government officials from the different political camps to unite after the May 2022 elections.
The Davao City mayor, who attended the birthday celebration of Pampanga Vice Governor Lilia Pineda, urged key leaders in Region III to support development plans and to put the interest of the Filipino people first.
“After the election, dapat po tayong lahat mga public officials ay kunin natin lahat ang ating mga kababayan, yung ating mga constituents doon sa ating mga lugar at i-herd natin silang lahat tungo sa ating direksyon na tuloy-tuloy na kaunlaran para sa ating bansa,” Duterte said.
She said unity is vital in continuing infrastructure development and in fighting criminality and illegal drugs.
Duterte also asked those in the birthday party to support her advocacies if she gets elected as vice president.
“Simulan po natin sa pagbalik ng trabaho na nawala dahil sa pandemya. Pangalawa is ang pagpapatuloy ng reporma na nasimulan ni Pangulong Duterte, particularly the Build, Build, Build project o infrastructure development spending ng ating bansa, at yung pagsugpo sa krimen at illegal na droga sa ating komunidad,” she said.
“Paano ito masisimulan? Kapag tayo pong lahat ay magkakaisa,” she added.
Pineda’s birthday celebration was attended by politicians from all over Central Luzon.
Duterte was joined by her running mate Bongbong Marcos, senatorial candidates Mark Villar, Gibo Teodoro, Loren Legarda, Migz Zubiri and Jinggoy Estrada.
In a separate event, Duterte met with the Pampanga barangay captains and community leaders. She was joined by BBM, former President Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo, senatorial bets Teodoro, Estrada, Zubiri, Harry Roque, Robin Padilla, and Tingog Partylist third nominee Karla Estrada. (PNA)
