Ernesto Arellano has been fighting for workers’ rights for over half a decade
Now 83, he wants to bring the battle to the Senate as he seeks a seat in the upper chamber.
Arellano was one of the senatorial hopefuls who took part in Tanong ng Bayan: The GMA Senatorial Face-off 2025 and squared off with fellow candidates on various issues.
Asked why he was running, he said, “Sa buong panahon na yan, and lipunan ay isang tatsulok —six percent and NASA tuktok, 94 percent as baba.”
(Society is a triangle where six percent is on top and 94 percent are below.)
“We want to change this and build a society where everybody is equal,” said the leader of Katipunan ng Kamalayang Kayumanggi. —LDF, GMA Integrated News
