“We need somebody who will speak for us. Somebody who we take from the outside na makikita nya yung totoo at masasabi nya sa mga tao hindi lang sa mga press, pero lalo na sa kabataan. Napakahalaga ng kabataan,” proclaimed Commanding General, Lt. Gen. Macairog S. Alberto. [We need somebody who will speak for us.
