BACOLOD CITY, Negros Occidental – Gabby Concepcion formally endorsed presidential aspirant Sen. Grace at the Partido Galing at Puso’s rally in Bacolod City on Friday, March 18.
In front of the thousands of people who gathered at the Bacolod Plaza, the “Because of You” actor said he’s supporting Poe and the rest of her team in the coming May election.
He also took to Instagram to express his support to the lady senator.
He shared a photo of them together, which was taken on April 27, 1981, back when the actor was a popular matinee idol.
“GRACE POE is my personal friend. Mine is a personal choice. I have no political agenda. She supported me back in the days. She has my support…anytime,” Concepcion wrote.
The actor previously posted the same photo last 2014 and wrote: “I love this woman. She has my support! Pambansang throwback.”
According to an article published by Politiko, Poe was an avid fan of the actor back in the day.
Second airport in Negros Occidental
On the same day, in a rally held at San Carlos City, Negros Occidental, Sen. Poe promised Negrenses an airport in San Carlos City if she’s elected as the new president.
Negros Occidental has one international airport which is located in Silay City.
She said that an airport is not only a decoration and if the place would be more accessible, tourists and investors would be motivated to come to San Carlos City.
Rappler quoted her as saying: “We can do more developments here. Tourists can do a lot here.”
Poe’s adoptive mother, veteran actress Susan Roces or Jesusa Sonora in real-life, hails from Negros Occidental.
She belongs to one of Western Visayas’ most prominent ancestral clans, the Locsin family.
