Sarangani folk scrambling to join Pacquiao political party

MANILA, Philippines – People from Sarangani province are scrambling to become part of the People’s Champ Movement, the political party formed by Filipino boxing icon Manny Pacquiao.

A report on QTV’s Balitanghali quoted Pacquiao as saying that application forms for the party had already run out. The world’s best pound-for-pound boxer had declared his intent to seek a congressional seat in the province for the 2010 elections.

The report added that Pacquiao likewise established communication with rival parties to foster friendship and unity.

Despite the overwhelming support received by the party which the Commission on Elections (Comelec) had recognized only a month ago, Pacquiao said he must not remain complacent on his political bid.
