The New Society Movement (Template:Lang-fil, KBL), formerly named the New Society Movement of United Nationalists, Liberals, et cetera (Template:Lang-fil, KBLNNL), is a conservative political party in the Philippines. A secular party, it was founded in 1978 as an umbrella coalition of parties supporting then-President Ferdinand E. Marcos for the Interim Batasang Pambansa (National Assembly) and was his political vehicle during his administration.[8] However, after ruling the country for most of the 1980s, the party lost the presidency after EDSA Revolution. It was reorganized as a political party in 1986.
Since 1986, the KBL has contested in most of the national and local elections in the Philippines but retained a single seat in the House of Representatives in Ilocos Norte, which was held by former First Lady Imelda Marcos until 2019.
History
Formative years and Marcos years
The Kilusang Bagong Lipunan was formed as an umbrella coalition of parties supporting then-President Ferdinand E. Marcos for the Interim Batasang Pambansa (National Assembly). KBL made a strong showing in its first elections in 1978, winning 150 seats. The party went on to win the 1984 elections, finishing 79 seats ahead of the UNIDO. The party lost 103 seats in the 1987 House of Representatives election. It was reorganized as a political party in 1986.
Party division
On November 20, 2009, the KBL forged an alliance with the Nacionalista Party (NP) between Bongbong Marcos and NP Chairman Senator Manny Villar at the Laurel House in Mandaluyong.[9] Bongbong was later on removed as a member by the KBL National Executive Committee on November 23.[10] As such, the NP broke its alliance with the KBL due to internal conflicts within the party, though Bongbong remained part of the NP Senatorial line-up.[9]
