MANILA, Philippines — Former Senator Leila de Lima is entering the political landscape by participating in party-list elections scheduled for next year. She announced her candidacy as the lead nominee for the Mamamayang Liberal (ML) party-list group on social media.

De Lima made the announcement on her Facebook page on Friday. She stated her intention to represent the interests of various sectors in the community. She aims to address the pressing concerns of the Filipino people through her platform.

The Mamamayang Liberal party-list group has positioned itself as a sectoral affiliate, focused on promoting liberal ideas and fostering social justice. De Lima believes that this smaller political arena will allow her to connect directly with constituents and advocate for critical issues.

De Lima has been a prominent figure in Philippine politics, known for her advocacy on human rights and social justice. Despite facing legal challenges and being imprisoned on charges of drug trafficking, she maintains support from various groups. Her participation in party-list politics reflects her commitment to continue serving the public by advocating for relevant policies and reforms.

As she prepares for the midterm elections, De Lima’s campaign is expected to highlight issues such as governance, women’s rights, and the need for accountability in public service. Being part of the party-list system allows her to engage with a wider audience and represent marginalized sectors in Congress.

Political analysts note that while the party-list system can be competitive, it provides opportunities for candidates like De Lima to have a platform independent from traditional political structures.
