BATANGAS CITY – Independent senatorial candidate Panfilo “Ping” M. Lacson on Saturday scored a double win here after getting the endorsement of Finance Secretary and former senator Ralph Recto not just for his senatorial bid but also for his advocacy to empower local government units (LGUs).

In throwing his support behind Lacson’s senatorial bid, Recto said he is confident Lacson will keep watch over the national budget to make sure taxpayers’ money will be used properly.

“I am sure Ping Lacson will guard the budget where the government spends P16 billion a day. His and fellow senators’ role will be important in this respect,” he said in Filipino at a gathering with local mayors here Saturday afternoon.

Ping Lacson: Filipinos in Taiwan Must Prepare for Possible Invasion

ANTIPOLO CITY – Filipinos in Taiwan must do their part to prepare for a possible invasion by China, former Senator and 2025 senatorial bet Panfilo “Ping” M. Lacson said Friday.

Lacson said Armed Forces of the Philippines chief of staff Gen. Romeo Brawner was right in telling troops of the Northern Luzon Command to prepare for a Taiwan invasion contingency.

“Gen. Brawner is right in telling the AFP to prepare. Who else can implement the evacuation plan other than those who have the equipment and capability to evacuate or at least protect our fellow Filipinos there?” he said in Filipino at the press conference of the Alyansa para sa Bagong Pilipinas senatorial slate here.
