Labor leader Ka Leody to run for president in 2022
Labor leader Leodigario "Ka Leody" De Guzman has accepted the nomination of Partido Lakas ng Masa (PLM) to run for president in the 2022 Philippine elections.
He stated that his campaign aims for a "system change" rather than just regime change, seeking to alter the entire government structure.
De Guzman previously ran for senator in 2019 and 2016.
His presidential bid is supported by major labor groups advocating for an end to contractualization in the Philippines.
PLM Chairman Sonny Melencio commented that other presidential candidates do not represent the true opposition fighting against President Duterte's regime.
