Lacson choses Inday Sara Duterte as the next President: “If the next leader of our country would emerge from the young, fresh, and new faces in national politics”
If only young and new faces in politics would seek the Presidency, Senator Panfilo Lacson said on Thursday would prefer Davao City Mayor Inday Sara Duterte to lead the country.
During the weekly Kapihan sa Senado forum, Lacson said that Inday Sara has the characteristics of being a good leader.
He described Sara Duterte as strong-willed, stern, vibrant, progressive-minded, and has good leadership qualities.
“Speaking of Mayor Sara Duterte, make no mistake if the next leader of our country would emerge from the young, fresh, and new faces in national politics … my top choice right now is Sara Duterte,” Lacson said in his opening statement
Lacson also said that there are also some young leaders in the Senate, however, he saw that Inday Sara is on another level.
The Senator based his decision on his long experience in the government.
“A number of our young, hardworking colleagues are showing good leadership potentials. This is my political opinion based on whatever political sense I have accumulated after my long years in government service, Mayor Sara stands out and is right in front of the pack,” he said.
He also clarified that despite his praises to Inday Sara, it doesn’t mean that he’s endorsing her already to become the successor of President Rodrigo Duterte.
“No, I’m not endorsing her. I’m just saying that among the known young leaders, if we will choose from young and fresh we can say na si Sara talaga ‘yung tinitignan natin,” he said.
“Not only because she is a daughter of the President pero because of track record and experience as a local government official in Davao,” he added.
New faces in politics, like Leni Robredo emerged last Presidential elections after winning the Vice Presidency vs. former Sen. Bongbong Marcos.
President Duterte said last year that he wanted his daughter Inday Sara to replace him as the leader of the country.
However, he clarified that it’s only a joke.
“Ayaw ni Inday na sa pulitika,” Duterte said, pointing out that his daughter wanted to resign as Davao City Mayor after he took his oath of office.
“Napalitan lang siya para makatakbo ako,” he added.
Meanwhile, Sara Duterte formed a ‘local’ political party to support her father’s program in Mindanao.
