Presidential candidate and incumbent Vice President Leni Robredo expressed her gratitude to the Ilonggos for giving her a significant number of votes on the way to her close victory in 2016 as she mentioned last Tuesday.
Once elected as President, Robredo said during her speech in “Grand Pasasalamat” rally at La Paz Plaza, Iloilo City that her government will focus more on the welfare of the people.
She added that she is more confident with all her achievements and she provides an honest government service during her six-term as the Vice President.
“Alam nyo na ‘yung pangako gagawin namin dahil ganito talaga ‘yung uri ng pamamahala na pinapaniwalaan natin. Isang pamamahala na ang mga lingkod bayan nyo matitino at mahuhusay. Isang pamamahala na sinisiguro na ang pera ng taong bayan, napapangalagaan para nakakarating sa pinaka nangangailangan”. She stated.
Robredo said that it is the first time in the history of Philippine politics that presidential and vice-presidential candidates have supporters doing house-to-house campaigns, referring to the efforts being done for her and her running mate, Senator Francis Pangilinan.
“Bakit tayo nagpapagod ng ganito? Bakit tayo hindi nakontento na isang malaking rally lang? Dahil ganito ‘yung pamahalaan na pinapangako namin sa inyo, isang pamahalaan na gobyerno ang lalapit sa tao.” Robredo said.
