Manny Pacquiao admits poverty led him to boxing
Senator Manny Pacquiao wants to run for president in the 2022 elections, Senator Panfilo Lacson said Friday.
In a television interview, Lacson recalled that Pacquiao had approached him before and asked for his support.
He said Pacquiao, however, does not want to talk about his plan in public because the country is still facing the threat of COVID-19 pandemic.
In a mix of Filipino and English, Lacson told ANC that he was approached twice or thrice by Pacquiao and told him of his plan and if he could help, particularly with regard to budget issues.
"I think this was late last year... [he said] he's open about it. Although ayaw niyang pag-usapan because of COVID and in fairness to him, consistent siya na COVID muna tayo wag muna pulitika," he added.
GMA News Online has reached out to Pacquiao for his comments but has yet to respond as of posting time.
Pacquiao has been saying that now is not the time to talk about elections or politics. He said helping those in need must be prioritized.
Pacquiao was listed third in the survey conducted by OCTA Research on the Filipinos' preference for the next president. — Anna Felicia Bajo/RSJ, GMA News

Namaster na talaga ni Pacquio ang pagiging pulitiko. Kunwari ayaw pagusapan, pero sa totoo lang kumukuha na ng simpatya ng tao.

ekis na ekis sa akin si Pacquiao. Much better muna siguro na he should be seeking reelection first as senator before seeking presidency. Maiimpluwensiyahan lang siya sa mga nasa paligid niya, kumbaga magiging puppet lang.

Good boxer pero hindi good politician si Pacquiao.

Boboto ko sya as senator pero as president hindi.

 

[Euron Greyjoy]

[PHC-Dek]

punta na ako sa mars, BTC lilipad na papuntang mars hahahha.

paano kase aangat ang pilipinas kung mismong mga pilipino mismo naghihilaan pababa. nag aral pa sila ng ilang taon may degree pero ano ginagawa? nag nanakaw lang ng kaban ng bayan amp. kahit sino pa umupo bilang presidente, mahirap ng umangat ang pilipinas, kase tayong mga (di lahat) pilipino puro bash nalang. hindi nagkakaisa. kahit sino pa presidente, di na uunlad pilipinas. ugali ng pinoy manghila pababa.
