MANILA, Philippines — Makati Mayor Abigail “Abby” Binay sees no threat against her reelection bid, saying she would just “chill” her way through the 45-day campaign period.

“Mainit lang ang panahon ngunit hindi naman magiging mainit ang labanan,” Binay told reporters in an interview during her team’s proclamation rally at Lawton Avenue, Makati City, Friday.

The second-eldest of the Binay family also described her 2019 run as easier compared to her first try in 2016.

“Mas madali actually (ngayon). Nung 2016 ang kalaban ko nakaupo, ako pa-bakasyon na, paretiro na, wala akong plano na tumakbo nung time ng 2016 so parang ako’y naghahabol nung 2016 pero ngayon kumbaga sa ako feeling ko nakaungos naman ako sa tatlong taon na nakapaglingkod ako ng tama… so chill, chill lang tayo sa darating na 45 days,” she added.
