Wazzup Pilipinas!?
"The 2022 Presidential One-On-One Interviews with Boy Abunda" began last night with Sen. Ping Lacson taking on no-holds-barred questions about various issues in the country.
"I'm the most qualified. I'm the most competent. I'm the most experienced"
If you won’t vote for VP Leni, please try considering her again.” We must remember that a vote to another candidate is one less vote for VP Leni. We do not want the country's vote to be divided and ultimately lose in the end. I wish they would again have opposition unity talks to cement the win.
It's true that Sen. Ping Lacson has the credentials, knowledge, experience, competence, qualifications—he's got it all. This guy speaks from experiences, data driven, deliver statements according to facts. Hindi puro pangako, hindi political drama.
Sen. Ping Lacson:
-data driven and science based decision
-allocating more budget on R&D
-internal cleansing of government
-emphasis on leadership by example
-use alliances to counter china bullying
-digitalisation and removal of human intervention on government services
-proactive in terms of facing crisis
- color blind in politics....what is right and good is appreciated and wrong is not tolerated
- one standard governance
However, he's the author of the anti-terrorism law, thus making him a dangerous option.
But If you're really not going to vote for Leni, don't fall for someone na nag a-alamano lang sa gedli at takot kay Jessica
Just like what others say, halalan 2022 should be a battle between VP Leni and Sen. Ping. That is, if Ping was not involved with so many nasty controversies.
"Everything starts in government. Everything ends in government."
Boy Abunda: "Categorically, are you trying to say Senator, that the COVID handling of this government is a failure?"
Sen Ping Lacson: "Yes. Kita naman natin sa resulta eh."
Sen. Ping Lacson spilling tea on how the government failed to respond during this crisis. Sana lang ay hindi lang siya sa campaign period ganyan. He's been in the government for years, yet he remained silent most of his time.
Although Ping is very much aware that the government's response to the pandemic is a failure, I think the real question is-what has he done and what is he doing to help bridge the gap given his current role? Leni, for one, has been doing great in her pandemic response.
Ping got some good cards , he's saying good plans but it makes me wonder why in his 18 yrs in politics he didn't man up getting those plans of his put into action?
Siguro kasi in his 18 yrs in politics, sa legislative department lang sya nakatutok as a senator. Yung mga plans naman niya is for the president position so basically hindi talaga nya or it is not within his capacity to take those plans in action being a senator.
Ping can talk but not sure if he can walk the talk! There is disconnect between his being an enabler and suddenly criticizing the current government!
He was an enabler of Duterte together with Sotto. They would often flip flop, the moment na umalma na si Duterte, kambyo o mananahimik na agad sila. Magaling siyang sumagot kasi handa, articulate din pero sa sincerity, competence, hindi! Kasi walang paninindigan.
It was a talk show! He came prepared. That’s it!
Is it true that he returned all his PDAF allocations. Didn't receive any lobby money. Cut insertions. If these were true, Leni's OVP audit rating is minute compared to the cleansing he did on PNP.
Kung sana dati ay nag mayor or governor muna siya para at least kahit papaano may nabago at napaunlad siyang lugar dito sa Pilipinas.
Still, he has to prove if he is only pure lip service, or if he has the political will to implement these.
I watched both the Boy Abunda Interviews and Jessica Soho Interviews. Both are informative. Boy focused on platforms while Jessica focused on personal and their stand to some national issues. Pero mas gusto ko yung interview ni Jessica. Maaksyon. Grilling.
Magkaiba ng atake ng interview but the bottomline mas makikilala natin silang mabuti sa kung paano sila sumagot at sa kung gaano kalaman yung mga sagot nila. Some answers are read between the lines na you can assess their personalities or character. Kaya mahalaga mga interviews.
I think the format of both have their own pros and cons.
Boy Abunda interview makes us see how well versed our candidates to specific topics.
Meanwhile, Jessica Soho's makes us see how candidates can handle grace under pressure. There are some grace under pressure on the Boy Abunda Interviews. Kulang yung 5 minutes to address the cettain issues kasi.
The candidates' personal attacks and positions were the subjects of GMA, while their plans and platforms were the focus of ABS-CBN.
Very general ang questions ng Boy Abunda Interviews. Unlike the Jessica Soho Interviews na research-based ang line of questioning. Yung very specific issues and controversies per candidate ang questions. I would’ve loved to see them sweat it out and see how they hold up.
Hassle din ng timer ni Boy Abunda! Just when things were about to get interesting, mauubusan ng oras specially doon sa Erap part and drugs part!
Medyo bitin ang ibang topic. Pero that’s for the sake of fairness for all candidates.
Let's give credit on how Ping Lacson answers the questions.May sense, although medyo paulit-ulit siya sa "let's be proactive" statement niya. Which is not wrong, but should have been solidified if he have laid down concrete actions.
I love it when he said, “I am pliant, but if it will compromise my authenticity, I will have to decline”
I like his humility din, especially on the issues that he does not know about.
His stance about abortion is something insightful din. Tama na if he's not in favor, well, we need government intervention on foster care, help for mothers, etc.
Sen. Ping and VP Leni share a common leadership skill: "To Lead By Example!"
And to lead you need to have impact, influence and inspiration. Which I think Leni has more.
Ping has been in the position ever since before Leni yet he doesn't even matched our VP's achievements. I am not gonna fall for his sweet talks. There's still his many issues concerning his integrity that is pulling him down
Senator Ping could just be among Leni Robredo's best pick in her cabinet. Probably to lead the clean up of corruption in customs. No mercy, all guilty should go to jail.
"The ordinary thieves, they get the whip surely and fast but the big time thieves, big and powerful, they stay big and powerful."
This is the sad and devastating truth in our government. Justice is not fair and has not prevailed.
In my opinion, Ping Lacson fell short in calling out the failure of the Govt in its pandemic response. He played it safe. Also, what did he do during this crisis?
I believe the reason why Bongbong Marcos agreed to join the Boy Abunda Interviews instead of the Jessica Soho Interviews is because the "controversy" segment of Boy's is a mere 5 minutes at the end of an hour long talk about their vision and stance.
Track record should have been given greater importance than their vision and plans. Anyone can bullshit a vision or plan, but track record, past actions are hard evidence of one's character.
