President Ferdinand R. Marcos Jr. witnessed on Wednesday the signing of alliance between the Partido Federal ng Pilipinas (PFP) and Lakas-Christian Muslim Democrats Alliance.

Called ‘Alyansa Para sa Bagong Pilipinas’, the alliance aims to uplift the lives of the Filipino people under a unified “Bagong Pilipinas.”

In his speech during the signing ceremony in Makati City, President Marcos said the PFP-Lakas-CMD alliance is a significant moment for Philippine politics and public service as it would propel the country towards the country’s transformation.

“We mark today a significant moment not just for Philippine politics, but also for the field of public service, as members of both parties formalize and build an alliance that will propel our country towards the Bagong Pilipinas that we envision,” President Marcos said.

President Marcos was the guest of honor during the signing of the alliance attended by around 300 PFP and Lakas-CMD members.

The President said he was encouraged by the overwhelming support of the Filipino people during the 2022 presidential elections, prompting the creation of the ‘UniTeam’ with Vice President Sara Duterte.

President Marcos won the 2022 presidential elections with 31 million votes, a testament of the Filipino’s faith not only in the promise to deliver better public service, but also in their vision to build a better Philippines.

“Ito naman ay nakita natin na tanggap na tanggap ng taumbyan ang ating mensahe tungkol sa pagkakaisa. At bukod pa dun, noong tayo’y matagumpay na sa ating kampanya, ipinagpatuloy natin ‘yung ating pagkakaisa dahil nasimulan natin ‘yung tinatawag natin na whole-of-government approach,” he said.

Under the whole-of-government approach, President Marcos said all government agencies are now working with one another along with the legislative and executive branches of the government in what he called “transformative politics.” |PND
