(ABS-CBN) - If she had her way, Jinkee Pacquiao would not want her husband, Filipino boxing champ Manny Pacquiao, to enter politics.
In an interview with ABS-CBN, Jinkee revealed that it has been her husband's dream to become a public official. She admitted, however, that she would rather see her husband focus on his profession as a boxer rather than enter politics.
She added that she will fully support her husband after he announced his intentions of running for congressman in next month's polls.
She also pointed out that Manny will not leave boxing even if he is elected congressman of South Cotabato's 1st district.
Manny had long toyed with the idea of running for office, largely due to his unmatched popularity in his homeland where he comfortably transcends the sport and attracts television audiences in the millions to watch his fights.
On Saturday, Manny will put his political aspirations aside when he faces unbeaten Mexican Jorge Solis in a super featherweight fight at the Alamodome.
