MANILA, Philippines — Presidential aspirant Manuel "Mar" Roxas II, the standard-bearer of the Liberal Party, said he does not believe that a parliamentary system of government will more effectively allow inclusive growth.

In this interview with The Philippine STAR in October, Roxas reveals his first executive order once elected president.

"Hindi ako papayag na pagsasamantalahan ang kahit sino ng malaki, makapangyarihan, malapit sa puwesto, nangingibabaw o maghahari-hari," Roxas said.
