MANILA -- President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. on Wednesday reminded voters of what is at stake in next Monday's elections during his penultimate campaign speech for the administration-backed Alyansa Para Sa Bagong Pilipinas slate.

"Kaya naman po ay nandito po ako na ikampanya ko po sila na sinasabi ko ako po ay nakakatiyak na pagdating – limang gising na lang – pagdating ng Lunes, huwag niyo pong kakalimutan na ang halalang ito ay hindi lamang sa pagpili ng ating mga magiging senador," Marcos Jr said in a campaign rally in Malolos, Bulacan.

"Ang halalang ito ay magbibigay ng gabay sa ating pamahalaan, sa ating lipunan kung ano ang tutunguhan ng ating minamahal na Pilipinas," he stressed.

Towards the end of his speech the president urged voters to "vote straight" for the Alyansa slate.

"Ako po, malakas po ang loob ko na magsabi … Upang po magka kapayapaan dito sa Pilipinas, upang maging makatarungan ang Pilipinas, upang mag-unlad ang Pilipinas, huwag po kayong magdalawang-isip pa, pagdating po ng Lunes, pag-upo po ninyo, pagpirma po ninyo ng balota, Alyansa Straight, Alyansa All the Way," he said.

The chief executive pointed out that the slate came together from various political persuasions for the common good.

"Nauna na kami dahil po kung titingnan ninyo kadalasan po pagka makita ninyo ang mga kandidato pare-pareho po ang suot na t-shirt, pare-pareho ang kulay. Eh tingnan niyo po kami iba-iba ‘yung kulay," he said. 

"Ngunit ay sinabi nila ay kahit na iba’t ibang partido, pare-pareho po ang layunin nila na tulungan ang mga Pilipino, na pagandahin ang Pilipinas," he added. "Kaya naman po naisantabi na muna ang mga sinasabi na political concerns para naman sila ay makatulong at magsama… para sila ay makapaggawa ng lahat ng kailangang gawin upang pagandahin po ang buhay ng Pilipinas."

The President also endorsed Alyansa Senatorial Candidate Camille Villar, despite failing to mention her in the previous two rallies in Batangas and Cebu.

Villar was absent during the rally in Malolos, Bulacan on Wednesday. 

The administration has opened an investigation on the complaints against her family-owned water utility, PrimeWater.

Alyansa's Miting de Avance, which will cap the campaign, is scheduled for this Friday, May 9, in Mandaluyong City.
