00:00President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. did not mention senatorial bet Camille Villar in his usual stump speech during the Alianza para sa Bagong Pilipinas sortie at the Batangas City Sports Coliseum.
00:12Marcos usually introduces his bets by highlighting their experiences, however, he did not mention Villar.
00:18In Lucena City, Quezon, Marcos had mentioned and endorsed Camille Villar, even if she wasn't there.
00:24The last time Marcos did not mention a candidate, Alianza ended up losing one.
00:28Villar has also missed three Alianza events since getting endorsed by Vice President Sara Duterte.
00:34Rumors have been spreading that Camille Villar might also leave the administration slate, but Alianza's campaign manager, Toby Tianko, denies it.
00:41He says Villar is still part of the slate even after Sara Duterte endorsed her and Marcos ordered a probe into Villar-owned prime water.
