5-POINT MAMBA ADVOCACY

We need to revolutionize our local economy to catch up with the improved local economics of other Laguna cities such as San Pablo, Calamba, Santa Rosa and Binan. We need to establish our own robust local economy by aggressively pursuing a production-based economy versus a consumer-based economy.

ECONOMIC REVOLUTION

ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AND SUSTAINABILITY

SOCIAL EQUITY

Growing up in the grassroots of San Pedro Resettlement Area, I have dreamed of someday influencing and leading a movement that will work for the formulation and implementation of public policies, programs and projects that will ensure fair and equitable management of public services, most particularly in the areas of health, education and employment.

By all means and at all cost, we shall protect our environment from the destruction and degradation, and ensure its long term sustainability.

Good and Corruption-Free Governance

Good Governance is on top of my advocacies. And I always believe that Government exists and functions primarily to address the needs of the poor and marginalized sector of society. As someone with grassroots beginnings, I advocate People Sovereignty: the rights of the ordinary people should be above those who are wealthy and powerful.

But this does not mean we abhor and will just leave the non-poor to themselves. The entrepreneurs among them, for example, should be adequately supported with favourable policies and programs to enable them to create jobs and lead the growth of the local economy.

The poor need the government to even just survive, hence, government processes and institutions should be able to meet their needs. Government can only justify its very existence if it succeeds in this primordial mission. To achieve this, it should make the best use of its resources. It should fight and resist corruption from taking these resources away from the ordinary people.

Our strategies to achieve this include:

1. Creation of a City Anti-Corruption Council to enlist citizens and stakeholders participation in the fight against corruption.

2. Stringent observance of legal safeguards and codes of conduct against graft and corruption in the local government.

3. Strict adherence to transparency provisions embodied in all national and local laws.

4. File cases against corrupt officers and employees and their private sector collaborators.

5. Encourage legislation for compliance-friendly regulatory processes in local government transactions.

MY FAMILY❤️

As a family man, my greatest joy comes from the love I share with my wife and kids. They are the center of my world, and every day spent with them is a blessing. Whether it's sharing meals together, exploring new places, or simply enjoying quiet moments at home, their presence fills my heart with happiness and gratitude. I strive to be the best husband and father I can be, supporting and nurturing them with unconditional love and care.
