#RapplerTalk:

#RapplerTalk:

@piaranada @IskoMoreno .@IskoMoreno on his biggest takeaway on politics: It’s more on the candidates and the people. Politics is innate, part of my life. Mayroon pa rin akong disbelief na ‘yung ganoong klase baba ng katayuan ng mga komunidad at tao still exists. #PHVote

@piaranada @IskoMoreno .@IskoMoreno: I think I made a good decision to participate and offer myself. Nalulungkot ako na masyadong behind yung ibang tao. Politics is like, sometimes you fumble, you misjudge people, but that’s the package. #PHVote #WeDecide

#RapplerTalk:

@piaranada @IskoMoreno Joaquin Domagoso on politics: Stressful. It’s hard to do politics, and I can’t imagine doing it. If hindi ko papa si Isko, magagalingan talaga ako, kaya niyang harapin ang mga tao, tell his goals and his message, ang hirap noon. #PHVote

#RapplerTalk:

@piaranada @IskoMoreno Joaquin Domagoso: It’s not just politics, it’s also working for the people. You ran so you can help others, not to get power. #PHVote #WeDecide
