THE ruling Partido Federal ng Pilipinas (PFP) party is willing to cooperate with everyone who supports his administration, President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. said Friday (Aug. 25).
As the saying goes, ‘Politics is a game of addition’. And so, whoever cares to join us as part of a coalition, whoever cares to support our candidates in the upcoming elections… but also in all of the political activities that we are doing… they are welcome to join us,” Marcos Jr. told reporters.
He made the statement after he witnessed the amphibious assault exercise between the Armed Forces of the Philippines, the Australian Defense Force, and the United States Marine Corps at the Naval Station Leovigildo Gantioqui in San Antonio, Zambales.
The PFP may partner with those who help the government pursue and promote the policies it has created for the Filipino people, according to the President.
“Gaya ng sinasbai ko noong eleksyon, nung kampanya, kahit naman sino, kahit anong kulay ng kanilang pulitika kung handa silang tumulong, bakit hindi natin sila isasama?” he added.
On Thursday, Marcos Jr. swore in a total of 14 governors as new members of the PFP which was formed in 2018.
These were Bukidnon Gov. Rogelio Neil Roque, Batanes Gov. Marilou Cayco, Aurora Gov. Christian Noveras, Zambales Gov. Hermogenes Ebdane Jr., Occidental Mindoro Gov. Eduardo Gadiano, Camarines Norte Gov. Ricarte Padilla, Albay Gov. Edcel Greco Lagman, Bohol Gov. Erico Aristotle Aumentado, Southern Leyte Gov. Damian Mercado, Lanao del Norte Gov. Imelda Dimaporo, Davao de Oro Gov. Dorothy Gonzaga, Davao del Norte Gov. Edwin Jubahib, Iloilo Gov. Arthur Defensor Jr., Maguindanao del Norte Gov. Abdulraof Macacua.
