Presidential candidate and Manila Mayor Francisco "Isko Moreno" Domagoso vowed to continue the Build, Build, Build program of President Duterte and do President Ramon ‘Magsaysay's’ concept if he wins in next year’s polls.

Domagoso, during a brief sortie outside the Antipolo City public market on Thursday (Dec. 16), said he intends to ‘build more schools, more hospitals, more housing, more businesses, and more jobs’ once he becomes president of the country.

He said he does not intend to take vengeance on anybody but instead wants to pick up what the national government will leave behind if he gets elected as president of the country.

Domagoso also said that he would replicate what the late President Magsaysay did in becoming a pro-people leader.

In an ambush interview at the Rizal Province Capitol where he met with local leaders of Aksyon Demokratiko, Domagoso told Manila Bulletin that he will "make the local government units more accessible to the people and Malacanang more accessible to the local government units."

“We will do the Magsaysay concept,” Domagoso added.

Magsaysay, who served as the country’s seventh president from 1953 to 1957, was known to be pro-people. Upon assuming office, Magsaysay opened Malacanang Palace to the public.

Domagoso, after the meeting, posed for a groufie (group selfie) with his local supporters in Antipolo City outside the City Mall of Antipolo in Cogeo.

He proceeded to the Antipolo Cathedral where he was accompanied by shrine rector Fr. Reynante Tolentino to the room where the image of the Our Lady of Peace and Good Voyage is enshrined.

Tolentino said he saw Domagoso make the sign of the cross and was quiet for a moment while praying in front of the Virgin of Antipolo.

An 82-year old widow, Adela Repil, who said has been selling rags on the streets outside the public market told Manila Bulletin that she would vote for Domagoso and that she hopes that he would help her and other vendors in uplifting their lives.

“Alam ko ang naging buhay niya kaya umaasa ako na matutulungan nya kaming mga mahihirap na laman ng kalsada, (I know what his life was that is why I am hoping that he would also help us who are in the streets),” Repil said.

Street sweeper Jemma Decenilla told Manila Bulletin that she hopes that Domagoso, once elected as president, would provide scholarship to poor students.

Vice Presidential aspirant, Dr. Willie Ong, along with senatorial aspirants Samira Gutoc, Atty. Joseph ‘Jopet” Sison, and Carl Balita joined Moreno in his visit to Antipolo City.
