Choosing a President who will lead a country for about 6 years is like choosing a hero who will save you in a game. The life of the Filipinos is in their hands, and if they’re defeated, the entire country falls into defeat. The famous series of Marvel Universe has its own heroes, the avengers. They are known to be powerful and known to protect the universe. But if they were able to defeat the bloodthirsty monsters and magic wielder villains lurking in the stars and planets, what more is it for a president of a country who has their back in the hands of the people.

Coming from the bright and scintillating entertainment industry and developing his career into a serious and caring careerpolitics, he committed to reducing crime and maintaining the cleanliness of the capital city of the Philippines, Manila.

 

Moves and voices that flatter the heart of the people and a personality so fun and approaching. Can he also approach and face the issues this country is battling?

He pushes the doors of "Manggagawang Pilipino" and has supported many laws that this country may need.

 

Is his willingness to help workers able to fend off the concerns they feel and really help them with what they are facing?

Panfilo "Ping" Morena Lacson Sr. is a former police general and is currently a Senator in the Philippines who is also running for the presidential seat. Being a former police general, it is inevitable that he had faced a lot of crimes. Senator Ping Lacson opposes kidnapping and jueting and believes in a no-take policy refusing a 400,000 thousand money reward for solving a kidnapping case. Ping reformed the Philippine National Police and eliminated policemen who still continue the 'Kotong culture'. He was also involved in the Kuratong Baleleng case and Dacer–Corbito murder case.

A mother figure for the country and supporting and giving empowerment to women, does Leni also be able to give both affection and protection to the country she's trying to serve?

 

A leader like Captain America, that wields the shield to protect the future of many, Filipinos should also choose a leader that is able to withstand the issues and problems that the Philippines will face, whether it is a natural calamity, a global pandemic, or a public issue bringing controversies around the country. 

Someone who will protect the country, and someone who will hold the future of the people of the Philippines. With the various problems and issues the Philippines is facing, choosing someone able to withstand and keep their feet on the land despite the pressure and powerful gravity pushing them down is something that is needed and desired.
