Young entrepreneurs: Mayor Isko can help PH get back on its feet
A group of Filipino entrepreneurs, under the banner YES 1SKO, has urged Manila Mayor Francisco "Isko" Moreno to run for president in the upcoming 2022 elections.
The group cited Moreno's track record as a public servant, including his transformation of Manila's image through street cleaning, corruption eradication, and improved quality of life for its residents within three years.
YES 1SKO expressed confidence that Moreno could replicate his successes nationwide, highlighting his ability to manage economic challenges during the COVID-19 pandemic and his compassionate leadership.
They believe Moreno embodies the principle of prioritizing the welfare of the people, which they feel is currently lacking in the country's leadership.
Another group, Ikaw Muna (IM) Pilipinas Cebu City, has also previously called on Moreno to seek the presidency.
Mayor Moreno has not yet made a decision regarding his presidential bid.
