Regardless of the outcome of the May 9 elections, independent presidential aspirant Senator Panfilo “Ping” M. Lacson and his vice presidential bet Senate President Vicente “Tito” C. Sotto III will have left an indelible legacy: voters’ enlightenment.
Lacson and Sotto said they believe they achieved this through the town hall meetings – all with dialogues or open forums – in the places that they have visited during the campaign.
“Voters’ enlightenment, voters’ education. That’s all there is to it,” he added, pointing out that the town hall meetings give them a chance to feel the pulse of the people on the ground and offer solutions to their problems when possible. Lacson said he and Sotto also hope that their town hall meetings would finally break the “traditional politics” that result in thieves or incompetents getting elected just because they know how to entertain the crowd.
“A lot is at stake in this exercise because ang laki ng problema ng bansa natin . I hope we can create a new template in campaigning,” he said.
