May 6, 2022 - Big crowds, rousing welcomes and unequivocal affirmations of support in Maguindanao province and Cagayan de Oro City marked the town hall meetings of presidential aspirant Sen. Panfilo "Ping" M. Lacson in Mindanao on Thursday.
The show of support for Lacson in both areas also belied the projection of a survey firm that he may get zero votes in Mindanao on Election Day.
In Maguindanao, Lacson - accompanied by senatorial candidates Minguita Padilla and Emmanuel Piñol - received an enthusiastic welcome at the Kamasi Multipurpose Hall in Ampatuan town, as some residents lauded him for being the first presidential candidate to visit them.
During the town hall meeting, Lacson brought his and running mate Senate President Vicente "Tito" Sotto III's message of hope and promise of good governance to residents of Maguindanao. He reiterated his advocacies of ending poverty in the Bangsamoro Autonomous Region in Muslim Mindanao (BARMM) and other parts of the country, by fixing the government's ills.
"It's about time na matikman ng ating karaniwang mamamayan... saan mang region, saan mang lalawigan, maramdanan ang biyayang galing sa national government (It's about time ordinary Filipinos, whether they are from BARMM or anywhere else in the Philippines, to feel the benefits from the national government)," he said.
He likewise fielded questions from participants, including one who asked him for an assurance that his administration will not tolerate discrimination against LGBTQ members Maguindanao. "You can have that assurance," Lacson replied, noting his administration will make sure all Filipinos will benefit from good governance, regardless of their inclinations.
"Ang ating battlecry, napakasimple: Aayusin natin ang gobyerno para maging maayos ang buhay ng bawat Pilipino (Our battlecry is very simple: We will fix the government's ills to improve Filipinos' lives)," he emphasized.
Maguindanao residents lauded Lacson for being the first presidential candidate to visit them and learn about their problems firsthand. When Lacson asked the audience if they know of any other presidential, vice presidential or senatorial bet who visited them, they answered: "Wala, kayo lang (No one, just you)!"
In Cagayan de Oro City, Lacson, Sotto, Padilla and Pinol received a festive welcome from an even bigger crowd in the afternoon.
With the reception he got Thursday - and similar welcomes in other parts of Mindanao such as Cotabato and Davao in past months - Lacson said he does not feel the supposed zero voters' preference as projected by Pulse Asia.
He maintained he is not bothered by such survey projections as his conscience is clear. "Kalmado pa rin ako. There is no substitute to clear conscience, wala tayong ginawang masama, malinis ang ating serbisyo, napakaswerte ng Pilipinas kung kaming dalawa ang manalo (I remain calm. There is no substitute for a clear conscience. We did nothing wrong. The Philippines would be lucky if Sotto and I are elected into office)."
On the other hand, Lacson said the zero preference may be a blessing in disguise as his supporters - particularly the Lacson-Sotto Support Group (LSSG) - will be motivated to work harder for his victory.
"Medyo nagagalit at nacha-challenge sila (They felt angry and challenged); they are prompted to do more and work harder," he said, adding he no longer takes the pre-election surveys seriously as the "actual" survey on May 9 is fast approaching.
"This election will expose the accuracies of the survey. We will see kung zero si Sen. Lacson sa Visayas and Mindanao. I know it is impossible (We will see if Lacson will indeed get zero vote in Visayas and Mindanao. I know it is impossible)," added Sotto.

May 6, 2022 - The Philippine Health Insurance Corp. (PhilHealth) may need to defer its planned premium rate hike in June to allow members whose livelihoods were affected by the pandemic to recover, presidential aspirant Sen. Panfilo "Ping" M. Lacson said.
Lacson said that while PhilHealth is allowed to raise its premium under the Universal Health Care Act, doing so now is untimely and not advisable.
"It is within the provisions of the Universal Health Care Act to increase, although it may not be advisable at this point in time because we are still reeling from the effects of the pandemic. Baka hindi timely (It may not be timely)," Lacson said at a press conference in Cagayan de Oro City Thursday afternoon.
"Dapat siguro i-defer na muna at hintayin maka-recover fully o somehow to a degree ang economy (It would be better to defer the hike until our economy recovers)," he added.
Under the UHC Act, the premium rates “will gradually increase” by 0.5 percent every year. In 2021, the rate hike was suspended to ease the burden on Filipinos affected by the pandemic.
But Lacson also noted that micro, small and medium enterprises (MSMEs) - which account for 99.5 percent of our enterprises - have yet to recover from the pandemic.
Hiking premium rates as scheduled would be a burden to Filipinos who are employed by such MSMEs and those who are looking for work, he added.
"Yan ang sinasabi kong untimely (That is what I meant when I said an increase at this time may be untimely)," he said.

MANILA, Philippines — The tandem of Senator Panfilo Lacson and Senate President Vicente Sotto III — who are running for president and vice president, respectively — is banking on its half a million campaign volunteers to secure wins in the May 9 elections.
In a press conference, Lacson and Sotto were asked if they are still confident on getting votes from the silent majority.
Lacson said their campaign volunteers have been to remote areas that some candidates might have not visited.
“As we speak, we have 500,000 volunteers, ‘yung may ID ‘no. So, ‘yun ang kumikilos ngayon, mga looban ‘yung target nila. They don’t concentrate on highways, on major thoroughfares. Ang pinapasok nila talaga mga liblib. Sa tingin namin, ‘yun ang mga bumoboto na hindi nararating ng mga ibang kandidato unless hakutin papunta sa bayan,” he said.
(As we speak, we have 500,000 volunteers, those with IDs. They are mobilizing, targeting the inside of communities. They don’t concentrate on highways, on major thoroughfares. They go to remote areas. We think these are the voters who have not met the other candidates unless they were brought to the towns.)
(We have sincere and selfless volunteers. They go to the deepest corners of the municipalities and the barangays (villages). So, we’re banking on that because these will not be shown in the surveys.)
Earlier, Sotto said their tandem is eyeing to get the votes of the silent majority, including the soft supporters of other candidates and the “thinking” voters, who he said comprises 45 to 50 percent of the electorate.

May 3, 2022 - Aside from the constant 2% survey results that they’ve been giving me for the past few months, now it is zero scores in both Visayas and Mindanao. Instead of speculating, it is best for me to just wait for the May 9 election results which is not too long a wait after all.
That being said, I call on all my active and silent supporters and those who truly believe in good, honest governance to go out on May 9 and cast their votes as it is the ultimate show of support that matters to Filipinos of the present and future generations.
