Bong Go claims vice presidency bid is subject to change

Sen. Christopher “Bong” Go on Tuesday (Nov. 9) said that his plans of running for the vice presidency of the Philippines in the upcoming 2022 elections may be subject to change.

“Itong kandidatura ko bilang bise presidente, ay maaring magbago. Hindi maiwasan na may changes sa pulitika. Sabi ko nga napakadumi. Dito ka na gusto magserbisyo sa kapwa Pilipino, may mga pagbabago na wala naman akong magagawa,” Go said in his speech.

“Maaring may magbabago sa mga tatakbong posisyon sa mga darating na araw, ang problema po dyan kailangan umiwas, gustuhin ko man pong magsilbi sa inyo bilang bise presidente dahil sa kagustuhan ng mahal na pangulo, kailangan ko pong umiwas, malalaman niyo po yun sa mga darating na araw,” he added.

However, Go assured the public that even if he does not claim the vice presidency seat, he will continue to serve the Filipino community.

“Kung kailangan kong umiwas, wala po akong magagawa, pero ito lang po ang maipapangako ko sa inyo, kahit kapitan, kahit ordinaryong tao lang po ako, patuloy po ako magseserbisyo sa ating kapwa,” he said. – Report from Eunice Samonte/PG – bny
