IBA, Zambales, Philippines — Reelectionist Senator Grace Poe said in a campaign sortie here on Wednesday that she would create more livelihood opportunities for fishers in the country. ADVERTISEMENTAlthough running as an independent candidate, Poe is an adopted member of the Nationalist People’s Coalition (NPC). She was joined by former Senator Lito Lapid, another senatorial candidate under the NPC, during the dialogue with the fisherfolk. Poe and Lapid also courted voters at a public market here in the morning. At the forum, Poe said she would seek to pass bills that will benefit school children like the “Masustansyang Pagkain Para Sa Batang Pilipino Act” or Republic Act No.
