The Philippines will hold its Presidential Elections in May 2010

As the deadline for filing of the certificate of candidacy draws near, there is a lot of speculation as who would be running for the Presidency and who would their running mates be, for the Vice-Presidency.

But whether they admit it or not, most candidates are already running their campaign advertisements, disquised as infomercials (information commercial), because under the rules of the Commission of Elections, it is still illegal to campaign for any candidate.

From Malaysian Mirror, http://www.malaysianmirror.com:

AQUINO LEADING PHILIPPINE PRESIDENTIAL RACE - MANILA, Oct 14 -  The son of revered former Philippine President Cory Aquino has taken a commanding lead among potential candidates for the 2010 presidential elections, an opinion poll said today. The poll by the Social Weather Stations (SWS) showed Senator Benigno “Noynoy” Aquino favoured by 60 per cent of respondents. Senator Manuel Villar, in the lead in opinion polls before Aquino announced his candidacy last month, was second with 37 per cent. Read more...

Ex-Philippine President Estrada To Run Again in 2010 MANILA, Philippines : Wednesday, 14 October 2009 16:31 - Former Philippine leader Joseph Estrada, ousted in a popular uprising in 2001 and later convicted of graft, said Wednesday he would run again for president in next year's elections. The announcement by the charismatic action movie star will excite his loyal fans, but observers said it was also likely to create constitutional controversies and dilute opposition efforts to oust the ruling coalition.  "Yes, I will run," Estrada, 72, told AFP, when asked to confirm local press reports of his decision.

It's really getting interesting with the coming elections here. Even the privilege speeches given in the Senate are somehow linked to the elections. I do hope next year, we'll have a president everybody can trust. Personally, I don't know if Noynoy (who's on top of the survey) is that president but we'll see.

R.G. San Ramon 2 years ago

I think you should have only included those candidates who are sure to join the presidential elections. I doubt if santiago, puno and trillanes are planning to run for the presidency. And, mar roxas is already out of the running. Follow mtd-anna's comment. Please update this, and make it accurate. You obviously are not following the news. It makes Filipinos like us look like people who write about things they don't really know.

@R.G. San Ramon,

Thanks for your comment but there's a lot of Filipinos who don't know how to read or understand what they read. Or plainly dumb.

It's still September and the filing of candidacy for the presidential elections is from November 20 to November 30.

That being said, I can even safely include YOU AND ME OR ANYONE I LIKE in the list.

There's no official list yet.

Please read the start of the list which was written in bold and I quote:

Here are some of the possible presidential candidates:

I think it's interesting how many journalists are mentioned in the list whether as candidates or as 'to be' wives of candidates. Does this mean they will be more honest than western politicians I wonder?

An excellent post which I thought made Filipinos sound very intelligent, well informed and good researchers.

All of mentioned 20 aspirants may be 4 or five of them will run for highest office (president) and the rest will settle to vice president candidacy - As i can see all of them are qualified. Each of them should have their flatform of government to solve out country's economic problem is that right? However, whoever wins in 2010 presidential elecrions should lead the country. I am hoping that the new president elect should gather all the ideas of those candidates who did not win, and their flatform of government that might be used to contribute the progress of the country as a whole. Let us help our country to move forward from poverty. Sana huwag maging mabuhay ang mga tanga! Para sa pag pili ng presidente ang wise at makabayan na presidente ang ating kailangan...

>Most of the comments on Noynoy Aquino is lack of experience!!! Careful assessment must be taken into account in here…, “Sino bang candidate pa lamang for President ang magkakaroon na kaagad ng experience sa pagka presidente ng hindi pa naging isang presidente”???

>If you don’t mind, I’m a simple person with a slight understanding in dealing with computerized equipments. We’re facing an automated computerized election voting, probably this coming 2010 election. Now, my worry, and concern is the sincerity, and purity of the result??? Yes!!! they may declare that the automated machines are absolutely can’t be tampered!!! But, what if trick, and cheating was inserted during the processing of the equipment program software? That will only be triggered if the votes result are in terms of higher millions, so that during simulation test no abnormality can be detected. ( example. “IF candidate A > 10M, then add 1% of the excess to candidate B. If not, resume counting!!!). This is merely a simple hint of high caliber cheating!!! …. Reyban

For me politics is a corrupt mentality,if you

looking for a the right leader who will save

the world,you must be in denial."JESUS" Sacri-

ice "HIM" Self for the Curse of our political

Lawlesness."HE" went to the cross for you to

have life,and for the forgiveness of your sin.

Hindi kayo humihinga sa mundong ito nang dahil

sa inyong dangal.Its not about Aquino legacy,or

Edsa power,or your generation.History is "GOD"

Story.If 90 percent of our population dont have

"GODLY" Moral Principle,or "GODLY" Moral Respon-

sibility 90 percent of our population will suffer.

our form of Leadership,or our form of Government

is base upon "GOD" Standard.Depart from "HIM"our

worse enemy live inside us.Pride,Ego,Selfishness,

popularity.This are the greatest sin in the Bible.

"GOD" is not religion,"GOD"is about Relationship,

and Responsibility.kong hindi tayo magkakasundo

tayo lang ang sisira nang mundo.It took courage to

humble our self to one another. "GOD BLESS"

in regards to Mr:Alvin Matagal konang naririnig ang mga

salaysayin mo,its nice to hear,and many of them will say

good things about them self.marami ang titilaok,at many

will be impress by their own righteousness,and many will

be decieve,and many will suffer.If your looking for poli-

tical savior.you must be leaving in fantacy world.just

like "JESUS"said the world will be corrupt,because the

world will deny"ME".pasalamat tayo "HE" did not wipe us

all during typhoon Ondoy,just like "HE" did during Noahs

time.lahat naman tayo maganda ang hangarin."JESUS" said

let us not into temptation,but deliver us in evil. ang

ibig niyang sabihin.We have to over come our own enemy.

our flesh are dead into temptation.we have to fight our

own stupidity,because temptation is every were.wickedness

and lawlesness.many are wreckless,and Irresponsible.

our mind say yes,but our flesh is weak.Depart from"HIM"

we cannot do anything.

it is disheartening to see our countrymen fooled by trapos claiming "the chosen one, clean/walang bahid (kasi walang nagawa???), para sa mahirap, para sa kinabukasan, and many more

most of the candidates are too-good to be true - pag ganyan ang sistema - maraming pangako - asahan natin ang restiveness.

let us choose candidates na hindi namumuhunan sa kamalian ng iba, hindi nagpapaasa sa imposible (eradicate corruption?)... choose those that have leadership qualities, decisive at yung nagsasabi na gagawin ang achievable at hindi yung panaginip.

my case, i trimmed down my choices to 3, watched them speak on channel 2 and channel 7 debate, read and watched their views pre and post filing of coc and now im decided.

original choices were:

villar

gordon/bayani - (if you dont like these men, means you dont give a damn about the road and urban discipline)

I have a vision that Noynoy Aquino will be the next President of the Philippines. The same vision I had with his mom former President Cory Aquino. I had a vision of seven coup in the clouds at Santo Domingo Church. I had also a vision of Laban sign in the clouds in Cordillera Street in Quezon City. I had also a vision of Jesus Christ at Jollibee Restaurant. I hope and pray that my vision will be pushed through, Amen.

Eduardo Cruz Villanueva is no ordinary born-again televangelist. Check out this fairly dramatic bio.

Hailing from an entrepreneurial background, ECV studied economics, commerce, and law; then lived life as a labor leader and communist activist, from which he later converted, to become a born-again Christian and founder of "Jesus Is Lord," one of the Philippines' largest evangelical movements. He has family in politics, he knows how to manage, organize, speak, and fight, and he has the considerable backing of the JIL denomination. He has a principled yet non-theocratic platform, and I'm pretty sure we know where he would stand on justice where the Marcoses are concerned. This is a guy I could stand behind for the presidency -- if only he had more political experience under his belt.

ONLY IN THE PHILIPPINES 2 years ago

Philippine Elections is all about money and popularity. Even if a candidate is popular, he/she still needs big business to bankroll his/her campaign. Are the leading presidential contenders can say NO to big businesses/interests? That's the reality of Philippine politics. In our country, politicians run for office just to protect their business interests.

HOW, REALLY, DID MANUEL BAMBA VILLAR, JR. GET TO BE RICH? It may bear and serve the Filipino nation well to investigate and know that Manny Villar may actually have broken through Tondo-ragged accountancy to billionaire-rich presidentiable by allowing himself to be used as a foreign investor’s dummy in the Philippine real estate business. You see, the conduct of real estate business in the Philippines is made exclusive by law to Filipino citizens, necessarily because it involves business affairs that affect sensitive issues about territory, patrimony, and national security. Wasn’t that a debonair American who was smilingly visible every day at the offices of Crown Asia, Inc., way back before the Villars became politically ambitious? Unfortunately, sighting that American presence at the Crown Asia, Inc. organization deteriorates to zero visibility in hot election weather, especially nowadays! As Manny Villar embarked on a political career, it naturally became strategically imperative to avoid flaks of damaging controversy about being economically beholden to foreign influence, especially from nationalist camps of the likes of then Senator Teofisto Guingona Jr. who was one among those instrumental in passing the general law limiting the conduct of real estate business in the Philippines to Filipinos only. In fact, it was from 1997 to 1999 that the bespactacled, middle-aged, happy American investor (silent or express?) of Crown Asia, Inc. was last regularly observed at the 18th Floor of Cityland Herrera Tower. Most of us do have "humble," sometimes "rotten," beginnings; yet being transparent about such beginnings can do more good than harm. Perhaps good Senator Manuel Villar may want to comment on this matter at this time?

para kay mayor jojo binay! try muna natin maging senador ng pilipinas. hindi naman sa minamaliit ang kakayahan mo. pero wala kang ibang pina prioty kundi makati lang huwag mong i han tulad ang makati sa buong pilipinas. dahil namuno ka lng sa local goverment hindi sa national goverment. napaka liit lng na problema ang nahawakan sa makati. baka hindi mo mabilang ang problema ng buong bansa. at masanay ka lng sa problema ng makati lang? buong makati lang yata ang susuporta sayo. huwag ka ng umasa sa suporta ng buong bansa. dahil makati lang ang natulungan mo...hindi namin naramdaman ang tulong mo sa ibang parte ng bansa. gayahin mo muna ang mga senador tulad nila: loren legarda, mar roxas. na tumatakbong vise president.

villar: c5 nakinabang ka nga, nakinabang pa siya

noynoy: luisita massacre, kinakamkam ng iba ang lupa mo wala kang gagawin. kung ako man ipaglalaban ko rin kung ano ang akin.

at bukod pa ron hindi lang siya ang mayari nito sila lang ang namamahala. aba naman ibigay niya lahat hindi lang siya ang may share doon

villar:sumikat dahil sa asawa, naimpluwensiyahan dahil sa yaman ng asawa, at gumawa ng sariling pangalan. kahit sino kaya yun.

noynoy: kinaiiinggitan dahil anak ng bayani. anak pa ni cory na butihing ina ng bayan. hindi gaya ni villar walang ginawa kundi manira.

kung ako tatanungin mas mabuti pa si gibo totoo

o di kaya si erap tunay na may malasakit sa mahihirap, biruin mo gagawa ng illegal na jueteng para pangpondo sa mga charity para sa mahihirap.

puwede rin si gordon may nagaw kapag kailangan sa mga sakuna

at sa iba pang presidentiables na hindi maxadong matas ang ratings pero mabuti ang hangarin para sa bayan.

wag lang si villar mapagkunwari, inggitero, desperado, at napakasinungaling.

Wow - this is the first video I've seen telling people to think and vote the right person for President. I still can't believe Erap is running for Pres. Come on people have we learned enough about him when he was in the office???? We're trying to make this country better!!!! Think think think!

though nonoy is a good man but it is not enough, he is too week. He is a congressman fot 9 years did he ever stand alone? He only stand at the back of cory aquino. A good leader needs to be strong and brave enough to stand whats good for his countrymen. Take time to read the profile of GIBO. He top the Bar Exam and he mastered in Harvard university.. We need a leader like him. Running a country is like a business, to manage the country he must be intelligent enough to solve hilarious problems as the filipino citizines facing nowadays.

I now realize that the management of health providers really do not desire to provide health services to all patients. Those managers have clever excuses to deny services. They will allow a certain level of service only to defend company assets. Their acclaimation for compassionate customer service is a farce. They are sho shrewd.
