“Among all the provinces I have been to, only Pampanga has given me this kind of warm welcome. So thank you so much for your support—for me and for the entire Alyansa slate,” Tulfo said, thanking supporters from the province.
Meanwhile, comebacking Senator Manny Pacquiao, a boxing icon turned public servant, is bringing his passion for nation-building to Pampanga.
Known for building free housing communities in Mindanao, Pacquiao now pledges to replicate this legacy through his first Pacman Village outside Sarangani and General Santos City in Pampanga.
A pure-blooded Kapampangan, reelectionist Senator Lito Lapid accompanied his team mates to campaign in the province.
