MANILA, Philippines–Running a country is tough and as proof, the President’s hairline is receding and he still needs to find a special someone, Senator Francis Escudero playfully said Tuesday.

“Hindi po kakayanin ni Pangulong Aquino nang nag-iisa [na patakbuhin ang bansa]. Nauubos na ang buhok nya at wala pang nahahanap na katuwang sa buhay,” Escudero said during Team PNoy’s proclamation rally at Plaza Miranda in Quiapo, Manila.

(President Aquino can’t govern the country alone. His hair is thinning and he’s still looking for a partner.)

Escudero said after two years, there is already an improvement in the country’s economy but sustaining the gains is needed.

He reiterated the need to have people in the government who can understand the President’s agenda.
