Press Release

October 10, 2010

Senator Francis “Kiko” Pangilinan today says that PNoy must crack down on his team and address the factions from within to truly be able to move the country forward.

“PNoy must crack the whip and tell all those surrounding him that given the serious problems facing the country, without unity there is no way his administration can succeed. I know he has it in him to do so, and now is the time to do it. No more Mr. Nice Guy.”

Pangilinan earlier cautioned the administration that factions could weigh down and overshadow its performance.

“My appeal to those who support PNoy is that we need to learn to work with one another even if we dislike each other. It’s about time we acknowledge the existence of all these factions and recognize the need to end it. It will have to start from the top, and I know the President will deliver and act to ensure that all his men will finally march to the same drumbeat.”
