IBALIK ANG TIWALA

  Ping: ‘In’ ang socmed pero matalinong solusyon sa problema ang kailangan sa kampanya Hinikayat ni Partido Reporma chairman at standard-bearer Panfilo ‘Ping’ Lacson ang mga Pilipino na huwag basta pasilaw sa mga nakikitang impormasyon, pambobola at pa-aliw sa social media, dahil ang mga tunay na problema ng bansa ay nangangailangan ng matibay na solusyong hindi madadaan sa mabilisang paraan. Ibinahagi ni Lacson ang pananaw na ito sa kanyang pag-upo sa hot seat ng ‘The Chiefs’ sa ONE News PH, Lunes ng gabi. Inamin niya ang mga hamon na kinakaharap ng kanyang campaign team pagdating sa pagpapaabot ng kanilang adbokasiya sa social media na dinodomina na ng ibang kandidato sa pagkapangulo. “‘Nung kinausap ako nung aking—especially ‘nung aking communications team, ano—sinabi nilang kailangan sumama tayo doon, makisama tayo kasi ‘yon talaga ‘yung trend, ‘yon ang takbo ng kampanya e,” tugon ni Lacson sa tanong kung ano ang mga plano ng kanyang team para mapataas pa ang kanyang kandidatur...

  Magalong officially names Lacson as his presidential bet, asks fellow supporters not to give up on him Baguio City Mayor Benjamin Magalong has stated twice on record now that his top choice to take over as the 17th commander-in-chief of the Philippines in the upcoming 2022 national elections is no other than Partido Reporma chairman and standard-bearer Panfilo ‘Ping’ Lacson. Magalong gave this categorical response when he was interviewed Monday over “Balitang Sapolitika” that was streamed live on Facebook. He said he had always been very vocal about his support for a possible Lacson presidency because of their shared principles in leadership and governance. Both Lacson and Magalong had stellar careers in law enforcement when they served the Philippine National Police (PNP) before entering politics, where they also thrived because of their strong anti-corruption posture and high standards in public service. Magalong reiterated that Lacson is the most influential person in his prof...

  Corrupt politicians must be held accountable, not idolized — Lacson Partido Reporma chairman and standard-bearer Panfilo ‘Ping’ Lacson is not convinced that corrupt politicians who plundered public funds should be given a redemption arc, insisting that they must be held accountable for their crimes instead of being idolized. In an interview with ‘The Chiefs’ aired on ONE News PH, Monday evening, Lacson lamented common observations that some Filipinos have already been desensitized by corruption issues involving public officials, who, in turn, feel emboldened that they keep getting themselves back in power. “’Yan ang nawala sa atin, ang accountability. Over time, nakasanayan natin na kibit-balikat tayo. Parang iniidolo pa natin ‘pag isang public official yumaman sa questionable na pinanggalingan,” Lacson said. (We seem to have lost that sense of accountability. Over time, we have learned to shrug our shoulders over issues of corruption. Some of us even idolize the supposed public ...

  Lacson: We don’t just exist in virtual reality; hard issues should still matter in ’22 elections Insofar as Partido Reporma chairman and standard-bearer Panfilo ‘Ping’ Lacson is concerned, the physical world still exists, so we must never allow ourselves to get enraptured by what is going on around social media circles as real-life problems require tough solutions that cannot be delivered in bite-sized information. Lacson expressed these thoughts when he took the hot seat on ‘The Chiefs’ aired over ONE News PH, Monday evening. He acknowledged the challenges his campaign team is facing when it comes to getting their messages across on social media that has already been penetrated by his opponents. Pressed on what kind of adjustments he and his political party are planning to make, barely three and a half months to go before Election Day to improve his numbers, Lacson said he was advised to try and follow some trends to appeal to a wider audience despite his resistance. “‘Nung kina...

  Lacson to Govt: Ensure Vaccine Accessibility Before Clamping Down on 'No Vax No Ride' Policy January 18, 2022 -  The vaccines may be available, but are they accessible? On this note, Partido Reporma Chairman and standard-bearer Sen. Panfilo "Ping" M. Lacson said authorities should make sure Covid vaccines are accessible to the public, before clamping down on the "No Vaccination, No Ride" policy with stiff fines and penalties. Lacson pointed out that the vaccines may not be accessible especially to those without an internet connection, because they usually entail online registration. "Ang availability, walang problema. Pero accessibility - kasi hindi lahat may capability mag-apply online (We have no problem with the availability of vaccines. But accessibility is a different matter because not all have access to the internet and thus cannot apply)," he said in an interview on "The Chiefs" on One News Monday evening. Citing a recent study,...
