“I can’t even say the word ‘vote.’ I am obeying several contracts that say bawal but my lawyers checked for me kung ano pwede kong gawin. This is the closest that I could come and I could say of course the No 9 [Bam’s number on the ballot]. At the end of the day, I think ang pinakaimportante is to exercise your right to vote. Wag ka mag-complain na di nabigyan ng tamang SSS yung contribution mo when you were trying to get your benefits, or hindi mo nakuha or pin-romise sa ‘yo na libreng edukasyon kung ‘di ka naman bumoto.
