“We are thankful for the widening support. We will push for Filipinos’ right to be digitally connected as part of efforts to uplift the lives of our citizens,” Conti said.
“We will work to ensure that there will be better and more jobs that Filipinos can be part of. Online work is a viable alternative that can provide decent living wages,” he added.

“Let’s have new names in Congress — people who are really knowleadgeable and who will fight for the right of Filipinos,” a supporter posted on the Click party-list social media page.
