Marcos emphasized that the only correct reason to enter politics is to serve, highlighting the profound satisfaction derived from positively impacting people's lives.
He recounted his own political journey, beginning as vice governor of Ilocos Norte in 1980 at the age of 23, later becoming governor, and subsequently serving as a congressman and senator after returning from exile.
