Aquino: End bickering

14 May 2016

As the May 9 election results showed the apparent winners, President Benigno Aquino III called on Filipinos to immediately end political bickering and urged the public to accept and respect the outcome of the elections.
“Ipakita po natin sa buong mundo na gaano man kalalim ang ating mga damdamin at paninindigan para sa ating kandidato, ay kaya nating magsagawa ng isang eleksyong mapayapa, maayos at tunay na sumasalamin sa diwa ng demokrasya [Let us show to the world that no matter how deep our conviction and dedication to our candidates, we can have peaceful and orderly elections that mirrors our democratic processes],” Aquino said.
“Sa demokrasya, lahat ay nakakapagdesisyon. Sa huli, pagkatapos ng halalan, nawa’y matigil na ang bangayan. Igalang at unawain natin ang anumang pasyang bunga ng pagsasama ng tinig ng mas nakararami para sa ating lahat [Under a democracy, everyone can make a decision. In the end, and after the elections, I hope that the bickering will end. Let us respect and understand whatever will be the fruit of our respective decisions]” he added.
“Bawat isa sa atin, anuman ang kalagayan sa buhay, ay may tag-iisang boto, upang direktang maghalal ng mga susunod nating pinuno. Ito ang bubuo ng ating kolektibong desisyon ukol sa kinabukasan ng ating bansa [Each one of us, whatever our station in life, has one vote so that we can directly choose our next leader],” the President said.
He cautioned the people to verify the source of reports on election results and to be wary of speculations and false news.
“Karangalan ko pong maging bahagi ng mapayapang pagsasalin ng kapangyarihan sa ilalim ng ating mga demokratikong proseso [It is an honor to be part of the turnover of leadership under our democratic processes],” the President said.
