The Comelec’s first presidential debate begins.

First Question:

“Ano ang isang sektor na uunahin mong palakasin at bibigyang prayoridad upang mapabilis ang pag-ahon ng ating ekonomiya?” #PiliPinasDebates2022

Presidential candidate Mayor @IskoMoreno Domagoso says food security will be his first focus in terms of economic recovery amid #COVID19 pandemic. #PiliPinasDebates2022 @ABSCBNNews

Domagoso says he will invest in post-harvest facilities and look into the price of fertilizers to help farmers make better income. #PiliPinasDebates2022 #Halalan2022 @ABSCBNNews

Domagoso: “Ekonomiya ng sikmura. Pagkain sa bawat Pilipino. Food security is the thrust. ‘Yan ang pupuntahan kong direksyon kapag binigyan ng pagkakataon.” #PiliPinasDebates2022  #Halalan2022 @ABSCBNNews

Question: Tagumpay ba ang ‘Build, Build, Build’?

Domagoso: Yes, matagumpay ang Build, Build, Build. Will I continue it? Opo, mga kababayan. But we will build more housing, schools, hospitals, post-harvest facilities, sources of energy. #PiliPinasDebates2022 @ABSCBNNews

In his previous listening tours and sorties, Domagoso has said he will continue the administration’s ‘Build, Build, Build’ program and embark on his own version of the program to build more hospitals, houses, schools and create more jobs. @ABSCBNNews

Question: Handa na ba ang PH sa panibagong surge ng #COVID19?

Domagoso reiterates his vow to find ways to improve the life and livelihood—buhay at kabuhayan—of Filipinos should he win the presidency. #PiliPinasDebates2022 #Halalan2022 @ABSCBNNews

Domagoso: We can learn to live with #COVID19 and go back to work. ‘Yan ang magiging direction natin. #PiliPinasDebates2022 #Halalan2022 @ABSCBNNews

Domagoso says he would buy more equipment, treatments and medications, build more #COVID19 field hospitals, and fix problems in PhilHealth to prepare for another COVID-19 surge. #PiliPinasDebates2022 #Halalan2022 @ABSCBNNews

Fourth Question:

“Ano ang iyong gagawin para magkaroon ng sapat na trabaho para sa lahat, lalo na para sa mga nakapagtapos ng pag-aaral?” #PiliPinasDebates2022

Domagoso says to invest in STEAM: science technology, engineering, agriculture and mathematics. #PiliPinasDebates2022 #Halalan2022 @ABSCBNNews

Domagoso: We must invest our money, bigyan ang state universities na maaaring magturo muli ng agrikultira para magkaroon ng food security. Huwag basta umasa sa imported goods and products. #PiliPinasDebates2022  #Halalan2022 @ABSCBNNews

Domagoso on proposed 4-day workweek: “Depende sa industriya.”

The Manila mayor agrees with 4-day workweek for some sectors like BPOs. #PiliPinasDebates2022 #Halalan2022 @ABSCBNNews

Question:

“Sa inyong pangangampanya, ano ang inyong natutunan na lalong nagpatibay ng inyong mga plano para sa mga mamamayang Pilipino?” #PiliPinasDebates2022

Domagoso says, while campaigning around the country, he realized Metro Manila has been “spoiled” in terms of development, adds infrastructure will be diverted to far-flung areas to create more economic development, movement there. #PiliPinasDebates2022 #Halalan2022 @ABSCBNNews

Domagoso: “Sa bawat piso na ibibigay sana sa development ng Metro Manila, ilalaan ko sa far-flung areas.” #PiliPinasDebates2022 #Halalan2022 @ABSCBNNews

Domagoso says he will run after unnamed candidate’s family’s P203 billion real estate tax debt, use money to help farmers, Filipinos in need.

Domagoso was obviously referring to presidential candidate former senator Bongbong Marcos Jr. #PiliPinasDebates2022 @ABSCBNNews

Presidential candidates Vice President Leni Robredo and Senator Ping Lacson supported Domagoso’s commitment to run after Marcos family’s P200-B estate tax debt. #PiliPinasDebates2022 #Halalan2022 @ABSCBNNews

On fake news, Domagoso says we should go after social media platforms that allow fake news to spread.

The presidential bet adds, Marcos family’s P203-B estate tax debt is NOT fake news. #PiliPinasDebates2022 #Halalan2022 @ABSCBNNews

READ: Isko Moreno’s Aksyon Demokratiko had earlier sent the BIR a letter, asking if the bureau has recently issued written demands to the Marcos family to pay their estate tax debt now amounting to P203 billion. @ABSCBNNews

In his closing statement, Domagoso says PH needs a crisis manager.

“‘Di sa pagbubuhat ng bangko, buong buhay ko, puro krisis ang hinarap ko—mula sa pagiging basurero, sidecar boy, artista… Buong tapang kong hinarap ang mga ito.” #PiliPinasDebates2022 #Halalan2022 @ABSCBNNews

Domagoso: “Life and livelihood. Kung ekonomiya ang pag-uusapan, ang mahalaga sa akin, ekonomiya sa loob ng tahanan ng bawat pamilyang Pilipino.” #PiliPinasDebates2022 #Halalan2022 @ABSCBNNews
