Presidential aspirant and VP Leni Robredo now set to sign a covenant with the Alliance of Labor Leaders 4 Leni, whose key members include senatorial bet Sonny Matula. #PHVote#WeDecide@rapplerdotcom
@rapplerdotcom Robredo asks labor leaders to look at the track records of the candidates: Madali lang mag-promise lalo na pag panahon ng eleksyon..Yung ibang mga kandidato, nagbibigay sila ng pahanon sa mga manggagawa? Kinakausap ba nila? Yung yung indikasyon na hindi lang siya campaign promise
@rapplerdotcom Robredo says it's not enough that she would promise reforms via the covenant signing, says she would also need the cooperation of labor leaders to improve the plight of Filipino workers should she win: Hindi ako magikero. Maraming mga factors na kailangang gawin para mangyari ito
@rapplerdotcom Robredo recalls her days as a labor lawyer where she won cases for her laborer-clients at National Labor Relations Commission, but implementation of the decision they won is another story
@rapplerdotcom Robredo says she's thankful that even there are differences in beliefs between her and labor leaders, she has seen how much they're willing to walk with her to reform the sector in 2022. #PHVote#WeDecide
@rapplerdotcom Robredo: Nakita ko in the last 6 weeks na sasamahan nyo ko dito. Hindi naman tayo magkasundo sa lahat ng paniniwala eh, kasi imposible naman yun. #PHVote#WeDecide
@rapplerdotcom Robredo: Ang aking pangarap ay dadating tayo sa punto, siguro hindi natin kaya in 6 years, pero yung ang aking pangarap maga-allow sa ordinaryong tao na mahahalal into public office. #PHVote#WeDecide
@rapplerdotcom Robredo: Sana po magkakasama tayo until the end. Lagi akong may pakiusap sa mga supporters: Di ba narinig nyo na madali lang makipag-debate, mas radikal ang magmahal? Sana i-practice natin yun. #PHVote#WeDecide

LOOK: Pharmally execs Mohit Dargani and Linconn Ong, detained by the Senate for failing to cooperate in the ongoing probe, will soon be sent to the Pasay City Jail. They had their med check-up, swab tests done before their transfer to Pasay. Senate PRIB photos @rapplerdotcom
@rapplerdotcom Dargani and Ong are currently at the Office of the Senate Sergeant-at-Arms, but they are expected to be transferred to the Pasay City Jail within the day. Commitment order for their transfer was already signed y Senate President Tito Sotto.
@rapplerdotcom The Senate ribbon committee moved last Fri to send Dargani and Ong to jail if they fail to retrieve financial documents that senators are asking for. The Pharmally execs failed to give exact location of the docs, so they're going to jail today.

Artists Ina Esquivel and AG Saño tell @rapplerdotcom the murals they and other artists created for the Volunteer Center of presidential bet VP Leni Robredo and her running mate Sen Kiko Pangilinan are a "labor of love" which took them 2 weeks to finish, free of charge. #PHVote
@rapplerdotcom Muralist AG Saño, who designed the 60-foot mural of Leni-Kiko, says: We chose to do this as a labor of love... because we believe in their cause. That’s why we want to rally behind that. No amount could match the love that we have for their cause. #PHVote#WeDecide
@rapplerdotcom Saño on the Leni-Kiko mural: They’re looking at the direction of the east holding their chest as if singing the national anthem and committing to the flag. And you will also see on their shirts written, some popular quotes from them as well as the Constitution. #PHVote#WeDecide
