President Benigno Aquino III is set to have a casual dinner at the Palace together with Interior Secretary Mar Roxas, Sen. Grace Poe and Sen. Francis Escudero either tonight or any day this week.
Reports linked all three national figures as possible runners in the 2016 elections for presidency and vice-presidency.
The president has not yet made up his mind for whom to endorse in the coming polls and said he will declare it come last state of the nation address.
According to a palace source, one has to give way for the two highest positions come elections.
Though, Aquino has been preparing his SONA, he squeezed the meeting with the three for the crucial decision he is about to make.
Poe has been sweeping the surveys in both presidential and vice-presidential positions.
Escudero was reportedly eyeing for the vice presidency.
While Roxas has been the expected standard-bearer of the Liberal Party.
While Vice-president Jejomar Binay has already announced his plan in the 2016 polls, the LP is yet to announce its big news.
