Vice President Leni Robredo on Sunday reiterated she is open to run in any position in the 2022 election but she prefers to run for local post.
“Mula last year, sinabi ko na open ako sa lahat ng options. At ano yung options na yun? Tumakbo ako ng pangulo, governor, congressman, mayor. Or hindi na ako tumakbo at all – yun ang gusto ng mga anak ko,” Robredo said.
In her weekly radio program, Robredo admitted she’s not even sure if she will run for public office in the upcoming elections.

“Di ko nga alam kung kakandidato pa ako. Mas attractive sa ‘kin ang local,” she furthered.
The vice president said she is looking for more engagement with the people that’s why local post is more attractive for her.
“Ever since, sinasabi ko na kung ako may choice at ako lalaban, gusto ko ng lokal eh—governor, mayor. Kasi ‘yun talaga ‘yung gusto kong klaseng trabaho,” she said.
“Ang hinahanap ko kasi yung engagement sa ground. Despite that, naiintindihan ko may responsibilities ako. Kaya nga, hindi pa ako sarado na hindi ako magkakandidatong Presidente.”
Robredo, who serves as the chairman of Liberal Party, she is yet to decide regarding the 2022 elections.
