Former senator Honasan visits ex-VP Robredo in Bicol
MANILA, Philippines — Former senator Gringo Honasan paid a visit to former Vice President Leni Robredo at the Angat Buhay Foundation office in Naga City as part of his campaign stops in Bicol.
Honasan sought a Senate comeback in the 2022 elections under the Uniteam slate of Robredo’s then-rival, now-President Ferdinand Marcos Jr.
“Bahagi nitong usapan ay ang kanilang nagkakaisang adhikain na sugpuin ang corruption sa pamamagitan ng teknolohiya, pagbibigay ng higit na attention sa food security, at higit sa lahat, ang pagserbisyuhan ang mga kababayan natin sa laylayan ng lipunan,” the Honasan camp said in a statement on Wednesday.

(Part of their conversation was their united advocacy to combat corruption using technology, giving more attention to food security, and most of all, to serve our countrymen on the fringes of society.)
Honasan is again seeking a Senate comeback, this time under the Reform PH People’s Party and without a slate.
When asked about his exclusion from Marcos’ Alyansa para sa Bagong Pilipinas for the midterm election despite running under Uniteam prior, Honasan said, “I have no regrets in what I do in my life but always lessons learned.”
Robredo and Honasan were also once rivals for the vice presidency in the 2016 race, where the former emerged as the winner.
