ANC hosts leadership forum on May 11

The ABS-CBN News Channel (ANC), and the Ateneo School of Government will be bringing together four senators, a Cabinet Secretary, and a governor--all said to be eyeing a run for the presidency in 2010--at a leadership forum on May 11, a year before the scheduled May 10, 2010 presidential race.

Anchored by Tina Monzon-Palma and Ricky Carandang, the two-hour forum will be held on Monday, 7 p.m. at the Leong Hall of the Ateneo de Manila University, Katipunan, Quezon City.

It will be aired live on ANC.

The ABS-CBN news website, www.abs-cbnnews.com, will also be hosting a live chat during the event.

The confirmed guests as of May 8 are: Senators Francis Escudero, Richard Gordon, Panfilo Lacson, and Mar Roxas; Pampanga Gov. Ed Panlilio; and Defense Secretary Gilbert Teodoro.

As of posting, ANC is still awaiting confirmation from Vice President Noli de Castro, and Senators Manuel Villar and Loren Legarda.

The anchors will have a short one-on-one with each of them. Then the guests will be asked questions from a list submitted by ANC’s content partners and viewers who emailed and texted the issues that they want addressed.

The ANC Leadership Forum is part of ABS-CBN's multi-platform launch of "Boto Mo, I-Patrol Mo: Ako Ang Simula," the countdown to the 2010 presidential elections.
