VILLAR: EXERCISE RIGHT OF SUFFRAGE

Senate President Manny Villar appealed to the public and the electorate to exercise heightened vigilance in order to protect the electoral process in the country and preserve democracy.

To attain clean, orderly and peaceful elections, all of our citizens must take an active part in protecting the sanctity of the ballot which represents the supremacy of the Filipino masses, Villar said.

This is the time to make a difference and allow the will of our people to prevail, Villar said.

He likewise urged the electorate to fulfill their duty as responsible citizens by exercising their right of suffrage.

I urge our electorate to participate in the elections by casting their votes according to their free will and conscience and with the best interest of the nation in mind, the Senate President said.

I am fervently hoping that with the vigilance of our citizens and the dedication of our civil servants, we will have orderly and honest elections.
