In 2016 he decided not to run, because of his low numbers which
translates to low chances of winning.
"When
people talk to me about the possibility of running in 2022, ang balik ko na
lang sa kanila, I have only one requirement. I’m not closing the door but I
have only one requirement - give me a clear chance of winning,” he said in an
ANC "Headstart" interview.
"I've
become more pragmatic because after all these years in politics as a senator,
I’ve won 3 times. I’ve lost one presidential campaign. You become more
practical, you become honed," the senator added.
