THE United Nationalist Alliance (UNA) held their Visayas launching of candidates days ahead of the filing of candidacies.

Tarpaulins welcoming Vice President and UNA founder Jejomar Binay were displayed in every corner of the Cebu Coliseum while roads within the coliseum’s vicinity were closed as early as 6 AM to accommodate supporters who were fetched by City Hall buses and vehicles.

Three of UNA’s senatorial candidates–Sulu princess Jacel Kiram, former actress Alma Moreno and UP Prof. Harry Roque–were on hand to campaign while the crowd waited for Binay’s arrival.

He arrived at around 10:30 accompanied by wife Dr. Elenita Binay.

Cebu City Mayor Michael Rama opened the UNA launching.

UNA Sec-Gen JV Bautista described Cebu as an “UNA country” saying there are not less than 10,000 people who attended the launching.
