History
In June of 2012, the A New Hope party was formed. J Grey, its first ever candidate for the Presidential elections, won against KMP's Lacon Yan, 54 against 45 votes. It never ran a candidate for Presidential elections until it was renamed Sith Empire by August of 2012, which was the result of a merger between the Royal Philippines Party and A New Hope. That month, the Sith Empire supported Destroyer S87 of DPP in the Presidential elections. In November of 2012, it was again renamed into the New Philippines Party (NPP) by 27ist. It fielded a Presidential candidate for the first time since June when its former party president, Pinopinopino, ran for the Presidential elections in January of 2013. He only had 3 of 86 votes. On February 6, 2013, the NPP was renamed P.C.B. Filipino by juancda.
LAKAN-KBP
On February 17, 2013, the party was renamed again as LAKAN-KBP by Liana Paldrov. For the Presidential elections on March 2013, LAKAN-KBP endorsed Al Raposas. He only had 37 of 108 votes, the best performance of the party ever since the victory of J Grey on June 5, 2012. After the March 5 presidential elections, LAKAN-KBP reached the top five for the first time since August 2012.
