THREAD: Almost all presidential bets believe that holding and attending election debates are important, as they serve as platforms to relay their visions for the country.

Here’s what the candidates had to say during the CNN Philippines Presidential Debate: Image
Q: How important are debates?

Leody de Guzman: Napaka-importante nito. Dapat nandito ‘yung isang kasama namin, bakit hindi pumunta dito? (1/2)

#CNNPHPresidentialDebate #TheFilipinoVotes Image
De Guzman: Importante ito para malaman sana at masabi kung ano ‘yung mga programa, para malaman ng bansa, ng mga ating botante, kung ano ‘yung plataporma. (2/2)

#CNNPHPresidentialDebate #TheFilipinoVotes
Ping Lacson: Napakahalaga ng debateng tulad nito kasi level ang playing field. Walang tutor, walang script, pati cellphone pinagbawal niyo pa so walang makakapag-Google. (1/2)

#CNNPHPresidentialDebate #TheFilipinoVotes Image
Lacson: Dapat talaga i-encourage pa natin na magkaroon pa ng ganitong klaseng debate na face-to-face, at sana kaming lahat nandito. (2/2)
Leni Robredo: Pagkakataon ito para marinig kahit sa sandali 'yung aming mga plano. (1/2)

#CNNPHPresidentialDebate #TheFilipinoVotes Image
Robredo: ‘Yung number one ingredient din ng leadership aside from character is you show up in the most difficult times. 'Pag hindi ka mag-show up in the most difficult times hindi ka leader, so kahit mahirap kailangan nandiyan ka. (2/2)
Isko Moreno: Ang mga nanonood ngayon, kayo po, kayo po ngayon ang HR department, kami po ay aplikante sa trabaho. (1/2)

#CNNPHPresidentialDebate #TheFilipinoVotes Image
Moreno: Gusto mo naman ba mag-hire ng isang empleyado na hindi mo nakausap, hindi mo nakita, hindi mo nalaman kung anong karanasan, anong magagawa para sa iyong kumpanya, metaphorically speaking? (2/2)
Norberto Gonzales: Salamat at may mga debate, naipapakita natin, magkakaroon ng pagkakataon na maipaliwanag sa ating mga kababayan ang pangangailangan ng bagong sistema sa pulitika.

#CNNPHPresidentialDebate #TheFilipinoVotes Image
Faisal Mangondato: Mahalaga po ang isang debate para malaman ng ating mga kababayan ano ba talaga ang kailangan sa sitwasyon ngayon sa ating bansa.

#CNNPHPresidentialDebate #TheFilipinoVotes Image
Jose Montemayor: This is not a debate. It may be, well, a forum. But this is not a classic debate that we expect. Kahit sa ganoon pa man, nagpapasalamat ako sa CNN.

#CNNPHPresidentialDebate #TheFilipinoVotes Image
Manny Pacquiao: Napaka-importante po ng ganitong debate... para po makita natin ang sinseridad ng taong tumatakbo. (1/2)

#CNNPHPresidentialDebate #TheFilipinoVotes Image
Pacquiao: Kailangan sumipot tayo sa mga ganitong imbitasyon, para malaman ng taumbayan ‘yung tunay nating hangarin at layunin na mapaunlad natin ang ating bansa. (2/2)
Ernesto Abella: Very, very important talaga ‘yung debate para marinig natin kung saan talaga nanggagaling ‘yung tao. (1/2)

#CNNPHPresidentialDebate #TheFilipinoVotes Image
Abella: Mahalaga po talaga na magkaharap tayo para mailatag, makita, at madinig natin kung ano talaga ‘yung nasa puso at mga plano. (2/2)
