                    [Summary] => 

Kahit sa gitna ng kanyang maigting na preparasyon, nasa isip pa rin ni Filipino boxing hero Manny Pacquiao ang pagsabak sa pulitika.


Sa isang pulong sa General Santos City kamakailan, kinumpirma ng 28-anyos na si Pacquiao na itutuloy niya ang paglaban sa kinakapatid na si Rep. Darlene Antonino-Custodio para sa Congressional seat sa eleksyon sa Mayo.

"Medyo nagdalawang isip nga ako kung tatakbo pa ako (sa pulitika), pero gusto talaga ng mga kababayan ko na lumaban ako," sabi ni Pacquiao.
