Marcos: Powerhouse alliance unites broadest forces of patriots
President Marcos unveiled the administration alliance’s full senatorial slate for the 2025 polls on Thursday, underscoring the importance of unity and collaboration in addressing modern-day challenges.
In his speech at the Alyansa Para sa Bagong Pilipinas Convention, Mr. Marcos called the alliance a “movement of the people” aimed at uplifting the nation.
“The election is often seen as a time of division. But our alliance stands for uniting the broadest forces of those who love the motherland,” he said.
“If we stand together, united, it will be easier to achieve our goals for a better tomorrow.”

The senatorial slate included two of Mr. Marcos’ rivals in the 2022 presidential elections — former senators Manny Pacquiao and Ping Lacson.
Re-electionists Lito Lapid, Pia Cayetano, Bong Revilla, Francis Tolentino, and presidential sister Imee Marcos also form part of the ticket.
Rounding up the 12-member slate are Interior Secretary Benhur Abalos, Makati Mayor Abby Binay, former Senate President Tito Sotto, lawmaker and former DSWD Secretary Erwin Tulfo, and Deputy Speaker Camille Villar.
“As they say, we all have our own abilities to improve our country. But if we stand together, united, it will be easier to achieve our goals for a better tomorrow,” Mr. Marcos said.
The Lakas-CMD, headed by Speaker Martin Romualdez, likewise solidified its support for the Marcos administration through the administration alliance.
“We have already seen the beginnings of real progress. We have witnessed a government that works tirelessly to uplift our economy, secure our future, and restore the hope of every Filipino family. But we all know that the journey doesn’t end here. In fact, it is just beginning,” Romualdez said.
“Our alliance proves that despite our differences, we share the same goal: to build a nation where every Filipino can live with dignity, where children can dream without limits, and where the most vulnerable among us are never forgotten,” he added.
Romualdez said the administration coalition “is built on a solid foundation of service to the people.”
“Today, we come together, not as separate groups, but as one force for the people. We stand united because we know that in our unity, we find the power to turn dreams into reality,” he said.
