Bongbong would be the most pro-China candidate, Leni Robredo would be the most anti-China candidate, and Isko Moreno would be the centrist. However, I wouldn't trust all three of them to run the country if it meant we'd inevitably become puppets once again.

You're from the Philippines ?

Yeah, I am

 

[49ersfootball]

Yeah, I am

Spoke to my in-laws: they've told me they're voting for Robredo, but concede that Marcos, Jr., has it in the bag.

Big question is whether Senator Risa Hontiveros wins reelection ?

No clue about Hontiveros, but I am starting to be a bit weary about Marcos Jr. since he might continue Duterte's pro-China policy, while Robredo might shackle the Philippines to the US, something that has raised the issue time and time again.

I had no idea that Davao City Mayor Sara Duterte Carpio recently joined the Philippine Army Reserves 😕

Kris Aquino, defying doctors' orders regarding her recent health issues, showed up in Tarlac City yesterday to endorse Philippine VP Leni Robredo during grand rally:
Ailing Kris Aquino defies docs to endorse Robredo in Tarlac

​

And she never missed the opportunity to make it about herself. What a narcissist!! Most Filipinos know her true colors and cannot stand her.

Furthermore, Filipinos don't have an utang na loob to her or to her family. The nerve.

I don't think communist Risa Hontiveros will win reelection. We'll see though.

Picture of some weapons seized from Islamist Militants still trying to create their Sulu Sultanate. Literal grab bag of weapons.



Apparently they have a lot of Garands and Garand variants as well as more modern AR rifles.
