The Koalisyon ng Daang Matuwid (Lit.: Coalition of the Right Path) was the umbrella of the administration-backed presidential and senatorial line-up for the 2016 Philippine Senate election. It is composed mostly of supporters of Mar Roxas, who announced his presidential bid after the endorsement of Philippine President Benigno Aquino III during the event at the Club Filipino in July 2015. It is the remnant of Team PNoy which was formed by the Liberal Party along with Akbayan Citizens Action Party, Laban ng Demokratikong Pilipino, the Nacionalista Party, the Nationalist People's Coalition and the National Unity Party as its coalition members.
Their defeat in the presidential elections rendered the alliance nonexistent as they became the opposition bloc in the Senate, while most of the Liberal Party members in the House of Representatives joined the government-backed Coalition for Change. It was succeeded by Otso Diretso for the 2019 Philippine Senate election with 8 candidates announced in December 2018.
