Presidential candidate Senator Manny Pacquiao on Wednesday urged the Commission on Elections to decide before the May 9 elections which faction of the ruling party PDP-Laban to recognize. "Sa akin, gusto ko sana desisyunan na nila. Eh alam mo naman. Mas mabuti, lalong hahanga at tataas ang respeto ko sa Comelec kapag nangyari 'yun," Pacquiao said in a media briefing in Borongan, Samar."Hindi na lalabas 'yung desisyon na 'yan bago mag-eleksyon. Pagkatapos na siguro ng eleksyon 'yan madesisyunan ng Comelec dahil mahirap din," he said.
Two factions of the PDP-Laban are vying for recognition before the Comelec: one led by Energy Secretary Alfonso Cusi and President Rodrigo Duterte; and another by Senator Aquilino "Koko" Pimentel III and Pacquiao.
