Senatorial aspirant Sonny Matula, running under the ticket of VP Leni Robredo, said that presidential aspirant Manila Mayor Isko Moreno is not fit to become president after his remarks that ending contractualization is not a priority if he wins.
Senatorial aspirant Sonny Matula, who is running under the ticket of Vice President Leni Robredo, said on Sunday, October 31, that presidential aspirant Manila Mayor Isko Moreno is not fit to become president after his remarks that ending contractualization is not a priority if he wins.
“Setting the issue of contractualization aside shows that workers are not in his platform, so we think Mr. Moreno doesn’t have the right to be president,” Matula, who is also the spokesman for the Alliance of Labor Leaders for Leni , added in a statement.The statement said that workers do not only deserve any kind of job, as the Manila mayor said in his remark, but it has to be “a decent and secure job.
“We would like to remind all candidates that the protection to labor anchored on social justice is a priority under the 1987 Constitution. Ignoring security of tenure in favor of business interests is a manifestation of abandoning social justice and protection to labor,” he added. Instead, he wants Filipinos to have jobs—even temporary ones—since thousands of businesses are still struggling with the impact of the coronavirus pandemic. He also said that he will consider ENDO once the economy recovers.
