It is apparent that certain presidential, vice-presidential and senatorial candidates have withdrawn their candidacies from one party and/or substituted for a candidate from another political party. In the spirit of transparency, they should fully disclose when they resigned from their erstwhile party and when they took their oath as members of the new one. While Sara Duterte’s resignation from HnP and oath-taking with Lakas are publicly known, we cannot say the same for Rodrigo Duterte and Bong Go. If they are indeed transparent as public officials, they should fully disclose when they resigned from PDP-Laban and when they took their oath as members of PDDS.
