SENATOR Manny Pacquiao divulged his plan to create special courts that will focus on handling corruption cases aside from a mega prison for corrupt officials.

The senator explained that the special courts will be assigned with their own prosecutors and judges and would be given three to six months to decide on cases.

“Bawal ang corrupt sa bansa natin. Dapat three to six months tapos na ang kaso para magsama-sama ang mga corrupt sa kulungan,” Pacquiao said.

Meanwhile, Pacquiao is also open for any unification talks with the PDP-Laban with the condition that Energy Secretary Alfonso Cusi will no longer have anything to do with the party.

“What I want is to unite the PDP. Hindi dapat kami magkakaiba ng adbokasiya,” he said.

“Si Cusi tatanggalin natin siya kasi nadadamay ang iba. May problema tayo sa energy pero puro siya pulitika. Maghanap ka ng paraan para masolusyon sana ang mga problema at mapababa ang presyo ng kuryente hindi iyong puro ka pulitika, ” he added.

Asked if he would mend fences with President Duterte after the election, Pacquiao said: “Hindi kami magkaaway. Hindi masama ang loob ko sa kanya. Hindi ako galit sa kanya. Galit ako sa mga kawatan. Sa corruption ako galit kasi dahil diyan naghihirap ang ating bansa. Nasa puso ko ang ihaon ang ating bansa sa kahirapan.”
