Pederalismo ng Dugong Dakilang Samahan

Pederalismo ng Dugong Dakilang Samahan (transl. Federalism of the Noble Blooded Association) (PDDS) is a national political party in the Philippines accredited by the Commission on Elections (COMELEC) on October 30, 2018. It was founded by Presidential Anti-Corruption (PACC) Chairman Greco Belgica. He says that the members are the original followers of Philippine president Rodrigo Duterte in the 2016 presidential election. The main thrust of the party is for federalism to be applied to the Philippines. The party sought accreditation from the Commission on Elections so that it can run candidates for the 2019 midterm election.[1]
