Forming own national party grounds to expel Pacquiao – PDP-Laban exec
In 2019, the senator had already said he planned to turn People’s Champ Movement into a national party

The PDP-Laban faction backed by President Rodrigo Duterte says Senator Manny Pacquiao’s intention to form his own national political party is grounds to expel him from the ruling party.
PDP-Laban secretary general Melvin Matibag claimed on Thursday, August 12, that Pacquiao’s regional party People’s Champ Movement (PCM) had changed its constitution and by-laws to turn itself into a national party to back the senator’s plans for 2022.
This, said Matibag, is a “major ground for expulsion from his membership in the PDP-Laban.”
