Trillanes Message to All Filipino Patriots
Philippines, May 16, 2007
To all our Volunteers, Supporters, and all Filipinos who believed there is hope for our Motherland,
The past 90 days had truly been an astonishing experience. At first, I had fears that my candidacy, platform and message would be unacceptable to the Filipino people. But as the campaign period went by it was apparent that such was not the case. In fact, by the first week of March, when our resources were about to be depleted, our campaign had been practically sustained and carried forth by an intense spirit of volunteerism all over the country and from all walks of life. This, plus the outpouring of goodwill and support from the different sectors of society, made our moral victory complete. Yes, there is hope for our country. YOU ARE THAT HOPE.
I admit that we still have a long way to go before we can claim electoral victory and, as I have said before, I expect this administration to cheat. Hence, we should not put our guard down. We must continue to be vigilant in the coming days to ensure that your collective will is respected and upheld.
To all of you, who participated or supported in any way in this campaign, I give my whole-hearted thanks. You will forever be my inspiration, my motivation and my strength.
May God Bless our Country!
