DAVAO, Philippines — FPJ Panday Bayanihan party-list and mayoral candidate Tino Del Rosario conducted a rally and motorcade on Samal Island on April 24 to connect with supporters across the island.

Del Rosario also reflected on his journey, sharing that his first job after college was with the senator in 2013. He urged his fellow Samaleños to support the FPJ Panday Bayanihan party-list, highlighting the importance of collaborative progress.
Brian Poe expressed his gratitude.
“Mga kasama, nakatataba talaga ng puso at malaking bagay po ito para sa akin,” he said.
(Comrades, this truly warms my heart and means a great deal to me.)
“Kaya nandito po ako ngayon, hindi dahil para mangampanya lang… Bestfriend ko si Tino, ang susunod na Mayor dito sa Samal. Hindi ko papabayaan ang matalik kong kaibigan na si Tino,” he added.
(That’s why I’m here today—not just to campaign… Tino is my best friend, and he will be the next Mayor of Samal. I won’t abandon my closest friend, Tino.)
“Kung mahalal po ang FPJ Panday Bayanihan party-list at maging congressman po ako, maaasahan nyo po na magbaba ako ng tutulong at susuportahan ko po ang mga programa ni Tino para sa mga kababayan natin dito sa Samal,” he also said.
(If the FPJ Panday Bayanihan party-list wins and I become a congressman, you can count on me to bring support and assistance, and I will fully back Tino’s programs for our fellow citizens here in Samal.)
His remarks show the deep connections that transcend regional differences, emphasizing his commitment to the people of Samal.
The support from the Samaleños and Tino marks the beginning of a united effort to create positive change for all residents of Samal Island. Together, they aim to build a brighter future rooted in cooperation and mutual respect.
