Moreno says not neglecting duties as Manila mayor to pursue presidential campaignMANILA, Philippines — Manila City mayor and Aksyon Demokratiko standard-bearer Isko Moreno denied criticisms that he was neglecting his duties as the capital city's chief executive to prioritize his campaign for the presidency. Speaking to reporters in San Andres, the presidential aspirant maintained that his campaign sorties across the country dubbed the "Listening Tour" do not necessarily mean that he has forgotten his duties as Manila mayor. I'm also lucky to have my vice mayor. My vice mayor was battle-tested...She really knows the job of being the vice mayor,” Moreno said in mixed Filipino and English. Moreno, who proudly refers to himself as a middle-class candidate, earlier said that his net worth is at P70 million.
