Saturday saw the first Comelec-organized debate for Halalan 2022 presidential hopefuls at the Harbor Garden Tent, Sofitel Philippine Plaza.

The debates aim to give candidates the chance to show and explain their platforms to the voting-public as the national elections near.

It was attended by 9 of 10 contenders for the country’s top post with only former Senator Ferdinand Marcos Jr. a no-show, saying he prefers to explain his plans in campaign rallies rather than participate in debates.
