@IskoMoreno @mariaressa .@mariaressa: We’ve watched you, you know what we’ve gone through. How would you convince me to vote for you? #First100Days #PHVote #WeDecide #PHVoteDomagoso

@IskoMoreno @mariaressa .@IskoMoreno: If you’re tired of animosities among warring parties…it seems that’s the selling point of both if the biggest camp in the race, accusation from one and to each other, and if you want to get things done, I can do that. #First100Days #WeDecide
.@IskoMoreno on his track record as Manila mayor: Sa awa naman ng Diyos, modesty aside, it’s a very challenging city, especially when the time I assumed office. #First100Days #PHVote #WeDecide #PHVoteDomagoso

.@IskoMoreno: Financially, physically, tapos the impression ng negosyante sa Maynila is wala kaming certainty. #First100Days #PHVote #WeDecide #PHVoteDomagoso

@IskoMoreno .@IskoMoreno: We’re not predictable on rules and regulations, we change things, But through some actions and ideas that we introduced, wala pa kami sa rurok ng tagumpay, but we managed to grow economically and the business are surviving. #First100Days
.@IskoMoreno: I cannot just assume nag-flourish ‘yung business because of the pandemic but I think at 7% lost in the business registration and 12% new business, that’s a positive 5. I think we survived the [pandemic]. #First100Days #WeDecide
@IskoMoreno Moreno on the biggest lesson he will take to the presidency: Certainty in rules, predictability, level playing field that corporation A will have such privilege with corporation B, and C. #First100Days #PHVote #WeDecide #PHVoteDomagoso

@IskoMoreno .@IskoMoreno: Hindi na siya ‘yung parang, may konti kang kiling na pinapaboran na kumpanya or tribo or geograpiya. ‘Yung pagka ganon kasi, gumaganda ‘yung competition ng negosyo. #First100Days #PHVote #WeDecide #PHVoteDomagoso

@IskoMoreno .@IskoMoreno: And why am I after that? Simply because, growing up in a very challenging community, one of the key reasons for us, ‘yung matulak ka sa pader. #First100Days #PHVote #WeDecide #PHVoteDomagoso

@IskoMoreno .@IskoMoreno: ‘Pag natutulak ang tao kasi sa pader dahil wala nang opportunity, the tendency is mamerwisyo ng kapwa and, having and making jobs available, mas mahina ang oportunidad na tumaas ang krimen. #First100Days #PHVote #WeDecide #PHVoteDomagoso
@IskoMoreno .@IskoMoreno: That’s how I addressed criminalities in Manila, and I think records will show for the past years na ang trajection ng criminality, despite hunger, lack of opportunity during the pandemic, we sustained a good level of crime and incidents in the city of Manila.
@IskoMoreno .@IskoMoreno: July 2019, 3 months akong umikot. I tried to sell the city’s policies, programs, and direction. Humingi talaga ako ng tawad sa PCCI, FFCCI, Chamber of Commerce. #First100Days #PHVote #WeDecide #PHVoteDomagoso

@IskoMoreno .@IskoMoreno: I went to Makati, and sabi ko, come back to Manila, and we’re gonna do this, we’re gonna do this, we’re gonna do this. And awa ng Diyos, nagbalikan uli sila unti-unti. #First100Days #PHVote #WeDecide #PHVoteDomagoso

@IskoMoreno .@IskoMoreno: Hindi na kami warehouse. Dati naging tambakan na lang kami, eh, naging bodega na lang kami. #First100Days #PHVote #WeDecide #PHVoteDomagoso
.@IskoMoreno: 18 years of poverty, napagsama ko ‘yung experience kong personal at ‘yung experience ko sa paaralan. #First100Days #PHVote #WeDecide #PHVoteDomagoso
@IskoMoreno .@IskoMoreno: So, when we did it, unti-unti nagkaroon ng sense of belonging ang mga tao na, uy, may bahay na kami! Uy, may eskwelahan na kami! Uy, maganda ‘yung eskwelahan namin! #First100Days #PHVote #WeDecide #PHVoteDomagoso
@IskoMoreno .@mariaressa asks: You win, you’re president. What’s your first 100 days? #First100Days #PHVote #WeDecide #PHVoteDomagoso
@IskoMoreno @mariaressa .@IskoMoreno: One, definitely bureaucracy, definitely. Noong pumasok akong mag-alkalde, I saw it. For 20 years inside that building, from councilor, to vice mayor, I saw who is an asset and who is not. #First100Days #PHVote #WeDecide #PHVoteDomagoso
@IskoMoreno @mariaressa .@mariaressa: You make it more efficient…. Pero, paano mo gagawin ‘yun when everyone has a vested interest? #First100Days #PHVote #WeDecide #PHVoteDomagoso
@IskoMoreno @mariaressa .@IskoMoreno: The same thing in City Hall. Everyone has a vested interest and it’s institutionalized. Simple lang naman ng ginawa ko eh. I got the best people kahit hindi ako binoto. #First100Days #PHVote #WeDecide #PHVoteDomagoso
@IskoMoreno @mariaressa .@IskoMoreno: Even lead department heads of former mayors of Manila whom I think and I saw because of the two decades being in that building, kinuha ko ‘yung magagaling. #First100Days #PHVote #WeDecide #PHVoteDomagoso
@IskoMoreno @mariaressa .@IskoMoreno: And the same thing that we’re gonna do, we address bureaucracy, expedite everything. #First100Days #PHVote #WeDecide #PHVoteDomagoso
@IskoMoreno @mariaressa .@IskoMoreno: We need fast action on a particular task, then we put people based on merit, not because katribu ko sila, o taga-rito sila sa ganitong lugar, or kaklase ko sila, no. #First100Days #PHVote #WeDecide #PHVoteDomagoso
@IskoMoreno @mariaressa .@IskoMoreno: It’s getting the right people in a particular task. That’s what I’m gonna do in the next 100 days, definitely. #First100Days #PHVote #WeDecide #PHVoteDomagoso
@IskoMoreno @mariaressa .@IskoMoreno: Because Lamborghini man ang sasakyan mo, kung ‘yung makina mo hindi mentenado, hindi rin ‘yan tatakbo nang episyente, ’yung gusto mong mangyaring bilis. #First100Days #PHVote #WeDecide #PHVoteDomagoso
@IskoMoreno @mariaressa .@IskoMoreno: The most challenging area in Manila, and this is on record, is a 15,000 obstruction in a 1.8-kilometer. For 30 years, everybody gave up with Recto, from Asuncion to Abad Santos. #First100Days #PHVote #WeDecide #PHVoteDomagoso
@IskoMoreno @mariaressa .@IskoMoreno: So sabi nila, “sir, napakahirap sir ang dami nating babanggain” I think that’s what your question is all about. Ang dami nating babanggain. #First100Days #PHVote #WeDecide #PHVoteDomagoso
@IskoMoreno @mariaressa .@IskoMoreno: The people gave us 51% and never in the wildest history ng Manila for three serious corner fights na magbigay ng ganong mandato. #First100Days #PHVote #WeDecide #PHVoteDomagoso
@IskoMoreno @mariaressa .@IskoMoreno: Ibig sabihin, they really wanted to see things put in right perspective. #First100Days #PHVote #WeDecide #PHVoteDomagoso
@IskoMoreno @mariaressa .@IskoMoreno: ‘Pag hindi tayo naging successful diyan, hindi na tayo magiging successful sa lahat ng kalye ng Maynila…. That’s the first task. And modesty aside, the 30-year problem, gone in 48 hours. #First100Days #PHVote #WeDecide #PHVoteDomagoso
@IskoMoreno @mariaressa .@mariaressa: Let’s do a scenario here where you’ve just taken your oath of office…but now you’ve been told that the supporters of the frontrunner refuse to accept you as president, and you’re in Malacañang. What actions are you gonna take? #First100Days
@IskoMoreno @mariaressa .@IskoMoreno: I’ll respect their views…. Well, I’ll protect the Constitution. We’ll try to listen and argue with them. Mahaba ang pasensya ko, sa totoo lamang. #First100Days #PHVote #WeDecide #PHVoteDomagoso
.@IskoMoreno: I have to do what I have to do, really, just to protect the interests of every Filipino in this country because that’s what you call democracy. #First100Days #PHVote #WeDecide #PHVoteDomagoso
@IskoMoreno .@mariaressa asks about Moreno’s priority in managing crises. #First100Days #PHVote #WeDecide #PHVoteDomagoso
@IskoMoreno @mariaressa .@IskoMoreno: It's always, always about data. In a crisis, like, there, there are playbooks in crises. #First100Days #PHVote #WeDecide #PHVoteDomagoso
@IskoMoreno @mariaressa Moreno talks about the pandemic: Bago magtransfer ‘yung virus, it takes weeks and weeks and weeks. In our case, in a matter of hours, which did happen. #First100Days #PHVote #WeDecide #PHVoteDomagoso
@IskoMoreno @mariaressa .@IskoMoreno: So, ang ginawa natin, simple pa rin: inadopt natin ‘yung some rules on how to manage crises. Be there, ‘wag kang absent, you focus, you sit with sensible people, and I talked to doctors because this is a health issue. #First100Days
@IskoMoreno @mariaressa .@IskoMoreno: Every single day, anim na direktor ng ospital, direktor ng MHD, everyday kuha ng data…tapos tinitingnan ko ‘yong memoranda ng World Health Organization kasi whatever is happening in other part of the world, it may happen to us. #First100Days
@IskoMoreno @mariaressa .@IskoMoreno: Ang ginagawa kaya we try to be ahead of the numbers in terms of capacity against infection. So, worst did not come, thank you very much. #First100Days #PHVote #WeDecide #PHVoteDomagoso
@IskoMoreno @mariaressa .@mariaressa: How would you have done that on the national level? #First100Days #PHVote #WeDecide #PHVoteDomagoso
@IskoMoreno @mariaressa .@IskoMoreno: Simple lang – I’ll build more hospitals dedicated to COVID patients. The same thing we did with Manila COVID-19 field hospital so that we can continue to live normally. #First100Days #PHVote #WeDecide #PHVoteDomagoso
@IskoMoreno @mariaressa .@IskoMoreno: There is a balance between life and livelihood. I’ll buy more medicines that are available in the world to survive every possible patient because there is a possibility that people will get infected. #First100Days #WeDecide #PHVoteDomagoso
@IskoMoreno @mariaressa .@IskoMoreno: I’ll buy more oxygens, equipment, sort of saying, reinforcing your health sector, invest in it. #First100Days #PHVote #WeDecide #PHVoteDomagoso
@IskoMoreno @mariaressa .@IskoMoreno: Ayoko naman husgahan ang ginawa ng ilang tao but I’ll buy on something that can save you. That is most important to me. Then, okay, we don’t close shops. We must learn to live with it and go back to work safely. #First100Days #PHVoteDomagoso
@IskoMoreno @mariaressa .@mariaressa: How do you keep politics out of the task you want done? How do you keep ego and politics out so that you can actually address a problem? #First100Days #PHVote #WeDecide #PHVoteDomagoso
@IskoMoreno @mariaressa .@IskoMoreno: I’ll go back to the first answer on how we managed the city of Manila. We put the right people in their field of undertaking, best in their undertaking. #First100Days #PHVote #WeDecide #PHVoteDomagoso
@IskoMoreno @mariaressa .@IskoMoreno: ‘Yung away naman nila, hindi ako kasali. Akala ko ba gusto mong maglingkod sa taumbayan, kaya mo sinuportahan ‘yung kandidato ni pula? Kaya mo sinuportahan ‘yung kandidato ni yellow pink? No, let’s come, help me. I cannot do this alone.
@IskoMoreno @mariaressa .@IskoMoreno: People who believe that two heads are better than one. Ayoko ng BBS, o ‘yong bilib na bilib sa sarili. I really don’t like those types of people. #First100Days #PHVote #WeDecide #PHVoteDomagoso
@IskoMoreno @mariaressa .@IskoMoreno: Kasi, maaaring maganda ‘yung intensyon mo, technically, okay ‘yan. But, if you cannot work within the system, hindi mo rin magagawa. #First100Days #PHVote #WeDecide #PHVoteDomagoso
.@IskoMoreno: May mga tao naman, wala namang pinag-aralan, or, walang PhD, but who understand the people, so when you do that, when you work within the system, not outside the system, I think it would be better for everyone. #First100Days #PHVoteDomagoso
@IskoMoreno .@IskoMoreno: I will reinforce everything with regard to how I will make you feel that you’re working on a safe environment. #First100Days #PHVote #WeDecide #PHVoteDomagoso
@IskoMoreno .@IskoMoreno: I will achieve that, I’ll go to that, I’ll invest in that, whether it is contact testing, tracing, I’ll make it available to you. #First100Days #PHVote #WeDecide #PHVoteDomagoso
@IskoMoreno .@IskoMoreno: If you’re sick, there is a hospital bed waiting for you with a doctor and hopefully a specialist like pulmonologists, infectious diseases doctor, 24 oras binabantayan ka, sinusustenahan ka, ‘yung anak, asawa, pamilya mo, tuloy pa rin ang buhay nila. #First100Days
@IskoMoreno .@IskoMoreno: I spoke with the Corona British Response, and kinuha ko talaga ‘yung plano, nagpaalam ako. Their plan is CoDe M: contain, delay, and mitigate. #First100Days #PHVote #WeDecide #PHVoteDomagoso
@IskoMoreno .@IskoMoreno: What’s mitigate? Mitigate the socioeconomic impact of the pandemic. That’s why nakita mo ‘yung Food Security Program na ginawa ng Manila? ‘Yun ‘yung cushioning. #First100Days #PHVote #WeDecide #PHVoteDomagoso
@IskoMoreno Moreno on dealing with the impact of the Russia-Ukraine crisis: First things first, how can we survive? Everything now is possible, and any leaders for that matter should go after food security. #First100Days #PHVote #WeDecide #PHVoteDomagoso
@IskoMoreno .@IskoMoreno: Lagi kong ginigiit ‘yung mabigyan ng pagkakataon na kumita naman ‘yung farmers, we prioritize our food production, we invest on our food security. #First100Days #PHVote #WeDecide #PHVoteDomagoso
@IskoMoreno .@IskoMoreno: ‘Pag dumating na ‘yung panahon na ‘yun at wala na tayong makain, balewala ang pera. If we cannot feed ourselves, and we continue to let agriculture deteriorate…. #First100Days #PHVote #WeDecide #PHVoteDomagoso
@IskoMoreno .@IskoMoreno: Ano ba ang priority natin? Makisali tayo sa giyera ng may giyera? O, importanteng mabuhay tayo, resilient, sufficient to live within these animosities or happenings in the world? #First100Days #PHVote #WeDecide #PHVoteDomagoso
@IskoMoreno .@IskoMoreno: Hindi naman kaila na ako’y tumatanaw lagi ng utang na loob. It’s an open secret that I value those people who helped me on the way up because I believe in some rules in life. #First100Days #PHVote #WeDecide #PHVoteDomagoso
@IskoMoreno .@IskoMoreno: Lalo na ako, I came from nothing, literally. Hindi ako pinalad na magkaroon ng magulang na may gintong kutsara sa bibig. But, there is what you call a demarcation line. #First100Days #PHVote #WeDecide #PHVoteDomagoso
@IskoMoreno .@IskoMoreno on his 'demarcation line': ‘Yung patas lang kayo, walang mang-aagrabyado sa’yong gobyerno, o, para na kitang natulungan. #First100Days #PHVote #WeDecide #PHVoteDomagoso
@IskoMoreno .@IskoMoreno: Bahala kang magnegosyo, but what I’m after is those people who use power and are in the kitchen, ‘no? #First100Days #PHVote #WeDecide #PHVoteDomagoso
@IskoMoreno .@IskoMoreno: Then, we provided jobs during the pandemic not only because ini-stimulate ng gobyerno ‘yung job availability, but the private sector, nakapaghanapbuhay uli. #First100Days #PHVote #WeDecide #PHVoteDomagoso
@IskoMoreno De La Salle University Student Shannen Solatan asks @IskoMoreno: What is your attitude towards drug use and the drug trade? #First100Days #PHVote #WeDecide #PHVoteDomagoso
@IskoMoreno .@IskoMoreno: We don’t tolerate selling drugs. We have drug addiction. It will destroy our family. I saw it also. Masakit mang sabihin, in real world, saan ka nakakita ng anak, hinuhulog ‘yung tatay sa hagdanan? It happened. I saw it. #First100Days
@IskoMoreno .@IskoMoreno: But taking life, for me, hindi ko pa kayang gawin ‘yun. At sa awa naman ng Diyos, we found a way how to put things in order. #First100Days #PHVote #WeDecide #PHVoteDomagoso
@IskoMoreno .@IskoMoreno: I told the policeman, “‘Pag nahuli niyong buhay, mayroon kayo sa aking porbetso.” Because we have resources to put things, to support them hangga’t maaari. #First100Days #PHVote #WeDecide #PHVoteDomagoso
@IskoMoreno .@IskoMoreno: There was an incident early on…. Sabi ko doon sa isang lugar, “O umalis na kayo diyan.” Mga kriminal, isang area ‘yun na under the part of my turf, “Umalis na kayo diyan, I’ll give you 72 hours, gusto ko tumahimik na ‘yong squatter area na ‘yan.”
@IskoMoreno .@IskoMoreno: Some listened, they changed address, well my authority is over the city, so, bahala silang makapamuhay sila ng ibang buhay. But those who did not, after X period, nagdala kami ng search warrant. #First100Days #PHVote #WeDecide #PHVoteDomagoso
@IskoMoreno .@IskoMoreno: Warrants that are existing, hindi ‘yung bigla ka na lang nagkaroon ng warrant isang araw, “Ano’ng kasalanan ko?” “Hindi, naituro ka, drug addict ka, eh, oo, itinuro ka lang,” no. These are existing warrants…. I saw the data, and implemented it. #First100Days
@IskoMoreno .@IskoMoreno: I can honestly say 97% of them were alive–caught, apprehended, alive. May dalawang lumaban, in the middle of the street, hindi sa loob ng bahay, oo. #First100Days #PHVote #WeDecide #PHVoteDomagoso
@IskoMoreno .@IskoMoreno: My point, in future tense, meron namang approach. I grew up with them. I grew up with criminals. I grew up with drug addicts, I grew up with dealers. That’s the life that I have nung bata ako. #First100Days #PHVote #WeDecide #PHVoteDomagoso
.@IskoMoreno: So, kaya ako, hangga’t maaari, minsan, alam mo ‘yun, modesty aside, minsan ako pa nga nagsasabi sa pulis, eh, “dito mo abangan,” oo. “Dito ‘yan pupunta. Ito ang magiging reaction niyan if we do this.” #First100Days #PHVote #PHVoteDomagoso
@IskoMoreno .@IskoMoreno: If you are certain, at applicable sa mahirap, sa middle class, sa mayaman, may kapangyarihan, I think ‘yun ang magti-trickle down naturally, without instilling fear. #First100Days #PHVote #WeDecide #PHVoteDomagoso
@IskoMoreno .@mariaressa: What happens when justice doesn’t work and it’s weaponized by those in power? #First100Days #PHVote #WeDecide #PHVoteDomagoso
@IskoMoreno @mariaressa .@IskoMoreno: Yes, it can be, and maybe it's happening now as we speak. Kapag nakikita rin ng mga institution, you as a leader na you don’t utilize such persuasive power over them, then naturally, papanatag sila and they will do and follow what is technically written in our law.
@IskoMoreno @mariaressa .@mariaressa: 36 years after People Power, Filipinos actually got together in 1986 and ousted Ferdinand Marcos. 36 years later, Ferdinand Marcos, Jr is the frontrunner, is he the guy to beat for you? #First100Days #PHVote #WeDecide #PHVoteDomagoso
@IskoMoreno @mariaressa .@IskoMoreno: May kinukwento ako sa mga tao. Ang tadhana talaga mapaglaro. Noong araw, nanonood lang ako sa speech ng tatay niya, kasi nagsasalita ‘yan sa Tondo noong araw. Akalain mo ngayon, anak niya ang kalaban [ko]. #First100Days #PHVoteDomagoso
@IskoMoreno @mariaressa .@mariaressa: [Now we’re in a place] where people can’t tell what’s real and what’s a lie, and what’s a fact. Ano’ng gagawin mo dito? #First100Days #PHVote #WeDecide #PHVoteDomagoso
@IskoMoreno @mariaressa .@IskoMoreno: I’ll go after the primary education system na bata pa lamang, ipinaalam na sa’yo ang tunay na kasaysayan. Baka lang nakaligtaan natin or somebody missed it during the time that they were given an opportunity to take the lead of the country.
@IskoMoreno @mariaressa .@IskoMoreno: I was asked by another TV station, I said, “Ano? Away na naman? Ah, si ganito na naman, laban si ganito? Hindi ba pwedeng tayo naman ang mag-usap as, ah… for our future?” #First100Days #PHVote #WeDecide #PHVoteDomagoso
@IskoMoreno @mariaressa .@mariaressa: The design of the platform actually spreads the lie faster and further. How will you handle this technology that has insidiously manipulated our minds? #First100Days #PHVote #WeDecide #PHVoteDomagoso
@IskoMoreno @mariaressa .@IskoMoreno: Because of interference, of this modern technology in the emotions and understanding, and seeing the clear picture, wala, nawasak…. So I’ll make everyone responsible. #First100Days #PHVote #WeDecide #PHVoteDomagoso
@IskoMoreno @mariaressa .@IskoMoreno: There’s too much smokescreen…and that’s what I’m worried kasi this is our life, 6 years of our lives, our children’s future. #First100Days #PHVote #WeDecide #PHVoteDomagoso
@IskoMoreno @mariaressa .@IskoMoreno: Can you imagine, we’ve voted, chosen, through democratic processes on the premise of ‘sinabi lang’, ‘napanood ko lang.’ Oh my god, and that’s what I'm worried about, not as a candidate, but as a citizen. #First100Days #WeDecide
@IskoMoreno @mariaressa .@IskoMoreno: Kasi kailangan talaga makaboto tayo noong…‘di man perfect, marami siguro, even myself is not a perfect person, the exact fit to the position, but those people who can do the job, and proven that they can do the job. #First100Days
@IskoMoreno @mariaressa .@mariaressa: You’ve said that Marcos, the father, was a good leader… #First100Days #PHVote #WeDecide #PHVoteDomagoso
@IskoMoreno @mariaressa .@IskoMoreno: At some point. I said that, oo, kasi may kinokopya rin ako sa kanya eh…. ‘Yung housing. Like Lee Kuan Yew, Martin Luther King… #First100Days #PHVote #WeDecide #PHVoteDomagoso
@IskoMoreno @mariaressa .@IskoMoreno: At some aspect, when I said, diba ‘yung sinabi ko, walang babae, walang bakla, walang tomboy, I’m referring to when Lincoln said, “All men are created equal.” #First100Days #PHVote #WeDecide #PHVoteDomagoso
@IskoMoreno @mariaressa .@IskoMoreno: May mga kinokopya ako kay Churchill, “In times of crisis, you don’t throw stones to every dogs that barks. You focus.” Mga qualities of leaders in the past na pwede mong kapulutan ng aral. #First100Days #PHVote #WeDecide #PHVoteDomagoso
@IskoMoreno @mariaressa .@IskoMoreno: Sa akin naman, with all honesty, and I’ve said this: after this, I’ll retire. #First100Days #PHVote #WeDecide #PHVoteDomagoso
@IskoMoreno @mariaressa .@IskoMoreno: I’m very young, but modesty aside, half of my life was dedicated to public service. I started, as in like, zero idea, on how the government works. But I have a full idea on what is public service. #First100Days #WeDecide #PHVoteDomagoso
@IskoMoreno @mariaressa .@IskoMoreno: Half of my life was dedicated to public service, siguro it’s time for me to pay what I owe to my kids and family because they’re the number one victim of my dedication to you. #First100Days #PHVote #WeDecide #PHVoteDomagoso
@IskoMoreno @mariaressa .@IskoMoreno: Alam mo kung pano ko siya dinedefine sa buhay namin ng pamilya? May bubong ba tayo? Okay. Tumutulo, hindi? Okay. May laman ba ‘yung pantry? Pumapasok ba ‘yung bata? #First100Days #PHVote #WeDecide #PHVoteDomagoso
@IskoMoreno @mariaressa .@IskoMoreno: I want you to vote for me, I want you to support me as a citizen. Because inalay ko talaga sa’yo, pinagbuti ko trabaho ko so that’s what I’m trying to tell the people. #First100Days #PHVote #WeDecide #PHVoteDomagoso
@IskoMoreno @mariaressa .@mariaressa: How do you protect against your weaknesses? #First100Days #PHVote #WeDecide #PHVoteDomagoso
@IskoMoreno @mariaressa .@IskoMoreno: Kung ang family is one of the weaknesses of every leader, kasi ‘yun…kung ‘di makapunta sa’yo, pupunta ‘yan sa pamilya mo. Pero modesty aside, They never, ever, [participated] in government service. #First100Days #WeDecide #PHVoteDomagoso
@IskoMoreno @mariaressa .@IskoMoreno: Talagang kaya ‘yung mga anak ko, kahit ‘yung panganay ko, tanungin ba naman ako, “Papa, what’s the job of the governor?” That’s how innocent, he’s 23 years old. #First100Days #PHVote #WeDecide #PHVoteDomagoso
@IskoMoreno @mariaressa .@IskoMoreno: One weakness I have is ‘yung pagtanaw ng utang na loob. Sinabi ko kanina, but again, papanatag naman sa akin ang taumbayan basta ikaw na ang tatamaan. #First100Days #PHVote #WeDecide #PHVoteDomagoso
@IskoMoreno @mariaressa Moreno on dealing with corruption: We don’t tolerate it. #First100Days #PHVote #WeDecide #PHVoteDomagoso
@IskoMoreno @mariaressa .@mariaressa: I’ve heard this several times that some people will say that you're Duterte-like. You’re charming. #First100Days #PHVote #WeDecide #PHVoteDomagoso
@IskoMoreno @mariaressa .@IskoMoreno: That’s different because I cannot be compared to anybody who abused their power because modesty aside, wala ka naman sigurong nabalitaan na nag-abuso ako because I have this kind of certain belief na I cannot be right all the time.
@IskoMoreno @mariaressa .@IskoMoreno: I’m a human being. I tend to make mistakes and I’ve done a lot in my life, kaya ang dami kong sugat sa tuhod, so ‘pag nadadapa ako, bumabangon, and try to improve myself. The thing is, hindi ka man maging tama, but I will always be just.
@IskoMoreno @mariaressa .@IskoMoreno: ‘Pag titignan mo, hindi ko siya hinayaan, na makapangdaya ng kaunti, mapabura nang kaunti, pero tinulungan ko siya nang hindi ko vinaviolate ‘yun. Ang tawag ko don, just trying to be makatwiran. #First100Days #PHVote #WeDecide #PHVoteDomagoso
@IskoMoreno @mariaressa .@IskoMoreno: Diyos lang ang laging tama. Kaya iniisip ko na lagi magkakamali ako. Magkakamali ako. Now, if I’m going to make a mistake, can I rebound? And that kind of mistake ba is to destroy your life? No, I hope not. I will not cross that line.
@IskoMoreno @mariaressa .@mariaressa: What you, as president, what would you do? What would the relationship of the media be? #First100Days #PHVote #WeDecide #PHVoteDomagoso
@IskoMoreno @mariaressa .@IskoMoreno: I try to be fair with them, by telling them things off the record. Straightforward…. I’m gonna tell her, pera ‘di lang siya ligaw. This is what we think. Pero hindi ko pa ‘yan masabi. Kasi gagawin palang namin. #First100Days
@IskoMoreno @mariaressa .@IskoMoreno: I try to be fair to them as much as possible but there are things in life na it may do more harm than good. #First100Days #PHVote #WeDecide #PHVoteDomagoso
@IskoMoreno @mariaressa Moreno on appointees: I have somebody in the yellow…. I have somebody. Two. Medyo key pa. They brought an industry in the country that our country continues to enjoy. Can you imagine that? He started it. #First100Days #PHVote #WeDecide #PHVoteDomagoso
@IskoMoreno @mariaressa .@IskoMoreno: I have my own team, I have people in the private sector that I would ask them to resign in their corporation because I do believe, “Ah, this guy is a finance guy,” he managed to grow such a corporation. Then I’ll put him in PhilHealth!
@IskoMoreno @mariaressa .@IskoMoreno: The way I promised the Filipino people, we’ll put financial people in PhilHealth. Not doctors, not other careers but a financial guy, because it’s money management. It’s not health management, it’s money management. #First100Days
@IskoMoreno @mariaressa .@mariaressa: How do you see the Philippines today, and what would you do to deal with it? #First100Days #PHVote #WeDecide #PHVoteDomagoso
@IskoMoreno @mariaressa .@IskoMoreno: It’s easy to say that we can be a Singapore. Singapore is a very small country…. #First100Days #PHVote #WeDecide #PHVoteDomagoso
@IskoMoreno @mariaressa .@IskoMoreno: It’s manageable, but there’s no harm in achieving or trying to achieve what Singaporean achieved, kasi sila ‘yung pinakamalapit sa atin, at sa kasaysayan. #First100Days #PHVote #WeDecide #PHVoteDomagoso
@IskoMoreno @mariaressa .@IskoMoreno: No matter what happened in the past, they achieved it, so hindi rin siya impossible… In our case, it’s medyo malaki but I think the first 2 years matter most to me of that 6-year mandate. #First100Days #PHVote #WeDecide #PHVoteDomagoso
@IskoMoreno @mariaressa .@IskoMoreno: Paano tayo makakatawid sa pandemyang ito? While we aspire of better things, good things, kapag gutom ang tao, namatay ang tao sa sakit, balewala lahat ‘yan. There’s nothing to govern if people are dying, so, I’ll go back to basic.
@IskoMoreno @mariaressa .@IskoMoreno: Tawid lang kita. Tawid ko lang na kayo’y may hanapbuhay in the next 2 years, of that 6 years, in the next 2 years, life and livelihood. #First100Days #PHVote #WeDecide #PHVoteDomagoso
@IskoMoreno @mariaressa .@IskoMoreno: Unless hindi mo nakita ‘yung hirap ng buhay, so you cannot adapt and innovate, magiging passive and I don’t like passive people. #First100Days #PHVote #WeDecide #PHVoteDomagoso
@IskoMoreno @mariaressa .@IskoMoreno: With all honesty, gusto ko talaga ‘yung, let’s continue to do things surgically, efficient, basta life and livelihood, ‘yun ang gusto kong makita sa bansa natin. #First100Days #PHVote #WeDecide #PHVoteDomagoso
@IskoMoreno @mariaressa .@IskoMoreno: In the first 2 years of that 6 years, after that, come, let’s go to Mars, let’s go somewhere else, let's dream of and aspire for more things, but for now, tao muna. Mabubuhay lang muna ‘yung tao. #First100Days #WeDecide #PHVoteDomagoso

On The Campaign Trail with @jnery_newsstand: Ad spend and Comelec rulings #PHVote #WeDecide twitter.com/i/broadcasts/1…
@jnery_newsstand In campaign parlance, there’s “ground war,” which means rallies, sorties, and machinery work, and there’s “air war,” or ad placements in all forms of media – TV, radio, billboards, digital. And in this episode, we’ll talk about the latter. #PHVote #WeDecide
@jnery_newsstand How much of a campaign’s budget goes into ad spend, and how is the Commission on Elections regulating this? #PHVote #WeDecide

Ex-pro Isko group IM Pilipinas Secretary General Elmer Argaño on Isko's tirades against presidential contender and VP Leni Robredo: I haven't seen, heard, or watched the vice president say that he should withdraw. #WeDecide #PHVote | via @ryanmacasero Image
@ryanmacasero Argaño: Our group has been calling for unity for non-dictatorship forces. In this case, it appears to be the vice president in all counts. #WeDecide #PHVote | via @ryanmacasero
@ryanmacasero Argaño: I'm not just referring to surveys. It's also the trend, pattern, sentiment, and people on the ground.

Instead of being magnanimous, statesmen and gentlemen, he continues with this line. #WeDecide #PHVote | via @ryanmacasero

Though the agency ‘respects’ the scheme initiated by MMDA, LTFRB says this should not connote that bus companies can only operate within the specified time.
The scheme that was agreed with the operators says that beyond the supposed window hours, buses can only stop at designated integrated terminal exchange such as the PITX.
