The Lakas ng Bansa (LnB;) is a defunct conservative liberal political party in the Philippines established in 1986, and folded until 1988 when merged with the Cojuangco faction of PDP–Laban to form Laban ng Demokratikong Pilipino (LDP).
In 1986, after the snap elections which made Corazon Aquino swept in power, House Speaker Ramon Mitra and some members of United Nationalist Democratic Organization (UNIDO) created a pro-Aquino party which supports the president, regardless of previous party affiliation.[2]
In 1988, Mitra, Congressman Peping Cojuangco, and presidential sister-in-law Paul Aquino (father of Bam Aquino) agreed to merge Lakas ng Bansa and PDP–Laban (Cojuangco faction) to form Laban ng Demokratikong Pilipino (LDP).[3] The Cojuangco faction was formed in 1988 due to Cojuangco's recruitment of former Pro-Marcos and Kilusang Bagong Lipunan (KBL) politicians.[4]
