Escudero on Roxas: I wish him well


From GMA News

Despite their supposed rift during the campaign period, Senator Francis "Chiz" Escudero on Tuesday said he is wishing his colleague and Liberal Party vice presidential bet Sen. Manuel "Mar" Roxas II well.

Escudero said he hopes they can work for the country “in whatever capacity," regardless of how Roxas fares in the elections.

“I wish him well. Whatever the outcome of the elections may finally be, I hope we can work for the country and our people in whatever capacity," he said in a chance interview in Quezon City.

Although Escudero supported the candidacy of LP standard-bearer Sen. Benigno "Noynoy" Aquino III in the May 10 elections, he had campaigned for Pwersa ng Masang Pilipino (PMP) vice presidential bet Makati Mayor Jejomar Binay instead of Roxas.

Speculations are rife that Roxas and Escudero are both eyeing the presidency in 2016.

Escudero said Roxas has no reason to harbor ill feelings at him for supporting Binay, adding that Roxas should instead respect the decision of those who did not vote for him.
