The Kapamilya star joined the growing number of Filipino celebrities who have already pledged their support for the presidential bid of VP Leni Robredo.
“Mga anak ng fuchsia, sama-sama tayong lahat on May 9, for Leni Robredo (Children of fuchsia, let’s go together on May 9, for Leni Robredo),” said Kapamilya actor, JC de Vera, in a short video where he officially endorsed the presidential bid of Vice President Leni Robredo.
De Vera appealed to Filipino voters via the video the film producer and talent manager Noel Ferrer posted on his Instagram account.
The Kapamilya actor already hinted about whom he will vote for as president in the 2022 polls when he denied earlier assumptions that the defeated 2016 vice-presidentiable, Ferdinand ‘Bongbong’ Marcos Jr. is his presidential bet.
On April 20, he officially pledged his support for the presidential campaign of Marcos Jr.’s political rival, Vice President Leni Robredo.

In the said clip that was shared by Ferrer, De Vera called himself as ‘Anak ng Fuchsia”, which is a popular alternative for ‘Kakampink”, Robredo’s legion of supporters.
“Sa ibang mga anak ng fuchsia na katulad ko, mahalaga ang ating boto sa darating na halalan (To my fellow children of fuchsia, our votes are important in the upcoming national election)” he shared, adding how each one of us hold the future of our country.
“Wag sayangin ang ating boto. Ito ay para sa ating bansa. Ito ay para sa ating kinabukasan (Don’t allow your vote to be get wasted. This is for our country. This is for our future),” he reminded Filipino voters.
The actor expressed optimism about what’s coming next for the Filipino people.
“I know that a brighter future for our country, is just around the corner,” he said, as he shared his faith in the Filipinos’ collective efforts.
“Madaming pinagdadaanang pag-subok ang ating bansa, pero sama sama tayong tumindig kaya alam ko na with strength, faith, and radical love, a better Philippines is in store for us. (We have confronted a lot of tough challenges, but we all stood up. This is the reason whyy I am confident that through our collective strength, faith, and radical love, a better Philippines in store for us).”
He ended his video by expressing his hope of seeing VP Robredo leading the future of the nation as the new President.
“I hope that together with our future president, Leni Robredo, we will finally live the future.”
