In a significant display of solidarity and support for the rights and recognition of gig and informal workers in the Philippines, Vice Ganda, one of the country's most beloved superstars, has officially announced his endorsement of the Angkasangga Partylist. 

This endorsement comes at a crucial time when the rights of gig and informal workers are increasingly being recognized as essential for social justice and economic stability. 

By supporting Angkasangga Partylist, Vice Ganda aims to amplify the voices of those who often go unheard and advocate for policies that will improve working conditions and provide better opportunities for this vital segment of the labor force. 

His involvement is expected to draw greater public attention to the issues facing gig workers and inspire further action towards recognition and support for their rights.

On Oct. 5, a significant announcement was made as Vice Ganda appeared alongside her long-time friend, George Royeca, the CEO of Angkas. 

This event marked an important moment, as George revealed his decision to transition his advocacy efforts into the political arena. 

The gathering highlighted their close friendship and shared commitment to making a difference, with Vice Ganda expressing her unwavering support for George's new venture.

Together, they discussed the potential impact of George's political journey on various social issues, emphasizing the importance of advocacy in creating positive change.

The Angkasangga Partylist, led by George Royeca, is preparing to launch a groundbreaking campaign focused on improving lives and ensuring a more secure future for the informal sector in the Philippines. 

This campaign will prioritize the concerns of gig workers, particularly those engaged in diverse industries such as transportation, food delivery, and entertainment. 

Recognizing the unique challenges faced by these individuals—such as job instability, lack of benefits, and limited access to resources—Angkasangga aims to create policies that not only elevate their livelihoods but also provide support through training, fair wages, and better working conditions. 

By advocating for the rights and welfare of this vital workforce, the party hopes to inspire significant changes that can positively impact the entire informal economy.

The partylist is pioneering an initiative to bring to light the often overlooked and undervalued contributions of informal workers to the national economy.

Vice Ganda's endorsement gives Angkasangga Partylist a strong voice that resonates not only within the LGBTQ+ community but also across the wider spectrum of gig and informal workers in the entertainment industry.

His significant influence and extensive outreach aim to enhance the partylist’s core advocacy—recognition and support for the informal sector.

George and Angkas have demonstrated their commitment to the welfare of gig workers through innovative systems and support mechanisms within Angkas.

Now, by transitioning into politics, George intends to bring this advocacy to a national level, ensuring that the informal sector's contributions are recognized and that they receive the benefits and support they rightfully deserve.

“I stand with George Royeca and Angkasangga Partylist because I believe in their vision and unwavering commitment to the informal sector and gig workers. Together, we can significantly impact the lives of countless Filipinos who strive to make a living through gig work. It’s more than just earning; it's about receiving the respect, security, and benefits these workers deserve,” said Vice Ganda.

The partnership between Vice Ganda and Angkasangga Partylist represents a significant milestone in the collective struggle for the rights and recognition of gig and informal workers in the Philippines. 

By using her voice, Vice Ganda not only supports a friend but also advocates for a cause that impacts millions of Filipinos. She champions a future where all workers are valued and supported, regardless of the nature of their work.
