President Marcos' party is already in talks with other political parties to complete the Partido Federal ng Pilipinas (PFP) senatorial slate for the upcoming elections.
Marcos bared such development during the general assembly of PFP on Monday, Sept. 16, where he met with party members and delivered his remarks as party chairman.
"Hiindi naman first time na nakipag-usap tayo sa ibang partido (It's not the first time that we're coordinating with other parties). We are actually discussing all of these issues with them every day," he said.
"So, to a great extent we will be able to come to an agreement for all of these issues relatively easily I think, relatively easily," he added.
Marcos urged party members to be prepared for next week, Sept. 26, for the upcoming convention of PFP and its allied parties.
He said there's now good progress in the talks and "we have always been in touch with all of them."
"The different parties really have made very clear what are their concerns, what are their requirements, what do they want to do," he said.
"We have made the same thing clear to them: ito ‘yung pangangailangan ng partido [that this is what the party needs]... we can take it on. These are the things that PFP can be in charge of. These are the things that we cannot take care, we need help with this, et cetera, et cetera. 'Yun ang mga aayusin natin [That's what we will fix]," he added.
He said that if the talks are successful, the upcoming elections will become "clearer even down to the municipal level."
"Let us organize ourselves in the best—as best as we know how," he said.
"But always keep in mind that we are—we have to work with other big groups who also have their own interest and we have to make allowances for them as they will be making allowances for us," he added.
