SWALES

We are seeing it and it is about to become official. The people have been chosen. I would like to
congratulate the former Senator. Ferdinand Marcus on his leadership and I hope it can be official soon
and everyone is at peace. I congratulate the family of the former Senator. Ferdinand Marcus for electing
him more than any of our countrymen to be replaced as president of the country. Congratulations to
you.

To those of us who are countrymen, my appeal is that the next administration will not succeed if we
continue to be sad, angry, or maybe we still have a grudge. We need to unite and help the newly elected
people. We need to succeed consistently. We are just a bunch of people, thank God for the democracy.
But we as citizens have a responsibility to support, help and unite in the activities, the goal of the next
administration.

I urge you not to get involved in any trouble, rage, or disagreement. We have to give change to the new
leadership. At the end of the day, we are separated by feelings, views, beliefs or even voting but we are
one nation. Don't get involved in any trouble because no good will bring good to the country,
community, or life. Life must go on. We must support.

So, to our leaders and to those who supported us, let us respect the votes of our countrymen, the poor,
the middle class, and the rich, they are one. The choice of our countrymen is now President-elect
Ferdinand Marcus Jr. and Vice President-elect Sara Duterte. We recognize the right of every Filipino to
choose a leader and support the government.

Again, to our countrymen, I remind you that you won because you saw your desire to choose a leader,
which prevailed yesterday.
