The Hugpong sa Tawong Lungsod ("People's Party" in Cebuano), commonly referred to as Hugpong, is a local Davao City-based political organization, founded by Rodrigo Duterte, a former mayor in Davao City and former President of the Philippines. The political party is considered as a precursor of the newly established Hugpong ng Pagbabago. It was registered as a local political party on March 28, 2011 at the Commission on Elections (COMELEC).

History

During the 2019 elections, Sara Duterte thought of leaving her party Hugpong ng Pagbabago to head this party. Duterte stated “Thinking about leaving HNP, going back to HTL, where it’s calmer. No decision". She stated that she planned to leave after the 2019 elections.

In 2021, multiple members joined the party including news anchors Tek Ocampo and Tambi Sarenas. The newly joined took their oath on September 30, 2021.
