United Nationalist Alliance Political Party

The Filipino United Nationalist Alliance, often abbreviated as UNA, is a political party in the Philippines that was established to promote a platform based on nationalism and a pro-Filipino stance. It emerged from a coalition of two major political parties,…   Pwersa ng Masang Pilipino (PMP) and Partido Demokratiko Pilipino-Lakas ng Bayan (PDP-Laban), with the intent of creating a unified opposition against the ruling parties at the time of its formation. The alliance was formalized in 2012, ahead of the 2013 midterm elections, making it a relatively young political entity in the context of Philippine politics.<br /><br />The core values of UNA revolve around a deep sense of nationalism, with a focus on policies that prioritize Filipino interests, sovereignty, and the welfare of the common people. The party advocates for economic policies that aim to uplift the lives of the poor and middle-class Filipinos, emphasizing social justice, equitable distribution of wealth, and the creation of more job opportunities within the country. It also champions the protection of Philippine territorial integrity and sovereignty, especially in the face of external threats and challenges.<br /><br />UNA positions itself as a party that listens to the grassroots level of society, aiming to represent the voice of the ordinary Filipino. It seeks to address the issues of corruption, poverty, and inequality by promoting transparency, accountability, and good governance. The party believes in the power of unity and collective action as means to achieve national development and progress.<br /><br />Throughout its existence, UNA has been involved in various electoral contests, fielding candidates for national and local positions. While it positions itself as an opposition bloc, its stance on various issues can be seen as centrist, attempting to bridge the gap between the left and right wings of Philippine politics. The party's commitment to its nationalist and pro-people agenda continues to be the guiding principle behind its political activities and policy proposals.Les mer
