Lacson, Sotto praise Duterte, Go for choosing ‘peace as their path’

Lacson, Sotto praise Duterte, Go for choosing ‘peace as their path’

MANILA, Philippines — Presidential aspirant Senator Panfilo Lacson has praised President Rodrigo Duterte and Senator Bong Go for choosing “peace as their path” as they withdrew their respective certificates of candidacy (COCs) for the May 2022 elections.

Both Duterte and Go on Tuesday formally dropped out from next year’s senatorial and presidential derby, respectively.

“Pres Duterte and Sen Bong Go have chosen peace as their path. Let’s give it to them and wish them well,” Lacson said in a tweet.

Lacson’s running mate, Senate President Vicente “Tito” Sotto III, also welcomed the development calling it “a wise move.”

“It takes a wise man to sacrifice something that he loves and give way to others who can serve our country better,” Sotto said in a statement.

Lacson: Verification of Candidates' YouTube Accounts a Much-Needed Step vs Disinformation

Lacson: Verification of Candidates' YouTube Accounts a Much-Needed Step vs Disinformation

December 13, 2021 - A much-needed and welcome move.

This was how Sen. Panfilo "Ping" M. Lacson described the Commission on Elections' move to verify the official YouTube accounts of candidates for the 2022 elections.

Lacson, who is running for President under Partido Reporma, said social media platforms have the potential to misinform the public if they are left unchecked.

"I couldn't agree more with the Comelec on this move. The use of social media platforms has almost become the qualifying barometer in educating - but ironically, also disinforming to the point of deceiving - our people," he said.

Also, Lacson expressed hope that similar moves to encourage responsibility and accountability on other social media platforms can be done soonest, or at least before the campaign period starts in February next year.

This will help greatly in preparing Filipino voters to select the right leader on May 9, 2022, he added.

"Left unchecked, social media could lead to wrong choices of officials who will have the unenviable task of leading our country in its most trying times," he said.

Why Lacson refused to accept monetary rewards from KFR victims’ families

Why Lacson refused to accept monetary rewards from KFR victims’ families

With vast experience in public service comes great wisdom, which Partido Reporma chairman and standard-bearer Panfilo “Ping” Lacson shared to public transport drivers and operators present at their recently held dialogue in Centris, Quezon City.

In a speech that lasted for nearly 20-minutes, Lacson imparted one of the primary tenets in life that guided him throughout his storied law enforcement and legislative careers: to perform one’s duty without vainglory or the expectation of financial rewards.

The former Philippine National Police (PNP) chief turned veteran lawmaker arrived on this topic when he talked about some of the rescue operations he led back in the 1980s, at the height of many high-profile kidnap-for-ransom (KFR) cases, involving the children of business tycoons.

Lacson was then heading the Intelligence Service Group of the Philippine Constabulary Metropolitan Command (PC-MetroCom) with the rank of lieutenant colonel when he helped secure the release of Robina Gokongwei-Pe, eldest daughter of the late businessman John Gokongwei, Jr.

Robina was kidnapped with her cousin in 1981. Their abductors demanded a P10-million ransom, which Gokongwei refused to pay on the advice of Lacson. The distraught yet calm father, according to the senator, was willing to offer P500,000 to police officers if their mission became successful.

“Ang sabi ko sa kanya: ‘John, ang importante mailigtas natin si Robina dahil armado ‘yung mga kumuha sa kanya.’ Natapos, na-rescue po namin, at nakuha namin ‘yung mga kidnapper. Ako nga ‘yung sumipa ng pinto e,” Lacson recalled.

(I told him: ‘John, what is important is that we save Robina from her captors because they are armed. The ordeal ended, we rescued her and arrested the kidnappers. I was even the one who kicked the door open.)

About a week or two after the incident, Lacson said Gokongwei and his brother reached out to him personally to inform him that their financial reward for the police officers who rescued their children was still on the table.

Staying true to his moral code, Lacson told Gokongwei that he and his men were politely turning down the bounty because “We only did our duty. Hindi kailangan ng reward. Hindi kailangan ang mga pabuya (The reward is not necessary. There is no need for a prize money.)”

Lacson explained this had always been his policy whenever he would lead a group of people because he did not want his subordinates to be selective in accepting KFR rescue assignments and other cases that would be brought to their attention.

“Ito ‘yung aking patakaran sa opisina: Kung nagkataong gusgusin ‘yung pupunta sa amin, dudulog sa aming opisina at hihingi ng tulong, baka ‘yung aking mga tauhan sabihin: ‘walang ibibigay na reward ito. ‘Wag natin tulungan.’ At mula noon, talagang mula’t sapul, every time na meron kaming ma-re-rescue… Laging ang sagot ko: ‘We only did our duty,’” Lacson stated.

(This was my policy in the office: If an unkempt individual happened to be the one who went to us and asked for our help, the people working for me might say ‘this person will not give us any reward; let’s ignore him…’ And since then, every time we would rescue someone, I always tell [their families]: ‘We only did our duty.’)

Lacson, the son of a jeepney driver and textile vendor, attributed the virtues he learned in life from the simple lower middle-class upbringing of his parents. He said they were the ones who instilled in him to value people over money at all times, which helped keep him on the right side of history.

The presidential aspirant has repeatedly stated in as many public speeches that he has no plans to abandon the values he learned from his parents. He said their teachings have been very instrumental that enabled him to stay grounded in his public service career.

Lacson Bares Ultimate Test of Character for Leader

 Lacson Bares Ultimate Test of Character for Leader

December 6, 2021 - One who passes the test of money and power is fit to be the leader the Filipino people need.

Sen. Panfilo "Ping" M. Lacson thus stressed Monday the need for the next leader to uphold integrity by practicing what he preaches.

"The ultimate test of a person’s character: give him power and offer him money. If he passes this test, he is the 'leader we need,'" he said on his Twitter account.

During his law enforcement career, Lacson had passed such tests of money and power by consistently declining rewards from grateful kins of kidnap victims he rescued while he was with the Philippine Constabulary. The victims he rescued included Robina Gokongwei and a then nine-year-old boy from a prominent Cebu family.

When he was assigned to head the Philippine National Police in Laguna in 1992, Lacson also refused offers of monthly hush money, ranging from P1.2 million to P1.8 million - in exchange for allowing illegal gambling operations to operate.

He even dared his men to tie him to the provincial command's flagpole and shoot him. "Nariyan ang flagpole. Itali nyo ako riyan at barilin nyo ako (There's the flagpole. Tie me there and shoot me)," he recalled telling them.

Not only did Lacson "win" that dare - he went on to serve as PNP chief from 1999 to 2001 where he cracked down on "kotong" (extorting) cops and strongly implemented his "no-take" policy.

Also, he refused and invoked upon the members of his directorial staff to shun offers of money for the procurement of PNP supplies from contractors doing business with the PNP. He likewise refused to avail of the P100-million-a-year so-called “commander’s reserve" (a.k.a. discretionary fund) of the Chief, PNP.

These, combined with his leadership by example as top cop, earned the PNP the trust of the public - with a high 64-percent approval rating for the PNP and a 73-percent approval rating for Lacson as its chief.

As senator, Lacson - a staunch crusader against corruption - also refused not just his P200-million-a-year pork barrel allocations, but also lobby or "goodwill" money from groups seeking favorable legislation.

Lacson is running for President under Partido Reporma.

We Can Win This! Lacson Lauds LGUs Offering 24/7 Vaccination for Covid Vaccination Days

We Can Win This! Lacson Lauds LGUs Offering 24/7 Vaccination for Covid Vaccination Days

November 27, 2021 - We can win this!

Sen. Panfilo "Ping" M. Lacson stressed this as he lauded local government units (LGUs) for going the extra mile to offer Covid vaccination for their residents.

On his Twitter account, Lacson cited the Awuyon Community Municipal Hospital in Baganga, Davao Oriental, which offered 24-hour vaccination from Nov. 29 to Dec. 1.

"Good, good and good. Let’s go Pilipinas! We can win this." he said.

"This is one prime example of the local government units being in the best position to know the needs and priorities of their constituents. Way to go!" he added, noting the Awuyon Community Municipal Hospital's three-day 24-hours vaccination coincides with the National COVID-19 Vaccination Days.

But Lacson - a champion of empowering LGUs to implement key programs and projects for their constituents - also pointed out the vaccination efforts should be sustained beyond the National COVID-19 Vaccination Days.

"Vaccination is our only way out of this pandemic and the ill effects it has had on our health and economy. Our people must get the vaccination jab done while government must get the vaccination job done," he said.
