MANILA, Philippines — Sen. Robinhood Padilla has formally assumed the presidency of the Partido Demokratiko Pilipino (PDP), replacing Palawan Rep. Jose Chaves Alvarez, who resigned from the position.
Earlier, Padilla said he would accept the post only “if I see that I can do good things and I can help my fellow Filipinos.”
In a previous interview, he said he would implement new policies in the party once he took over its leadership.
