“We are happy to be here and this will be an additional price to the MassKara street dancing participants,” she said.
Meanwhile, Duterte-Carpio also called on the Bacoleños for unity in choosing the local leaders.
“We need to unite in choosing our leaders from purok leaders, barangay captains, mayor, and councilors because the strength of the leaders is on their constituents,” she said.
She added: “if we move in one direction all of us will see a positive change, productivity, and development in the city.”
