Ala eh! Manny Pacquiao now an ‘adopted son’ of Batangas

Senator Manny Pacquiao can now consider Batangas as a hometown even if he grew up in General Santos City in Mindanao.
The provincial government on Monday announced that Pacquiao is an “adopted son” of Batangas.
“Mabuhay! Senator Manny Pacquiao. Kamao ng Pilipino, Ngayon Batangueno,” read the text on the photo posted by the Batangas Public Information Office on Facebook.
Pacquiao was praised for continuing to help and support residents of Batangas.
He was also lauded for remaining “true to his promise of easing the burden of the common people.”
