Franz Ranches for Vice Mayor


I'm seeking re-election as Vice Mayor of Vigan City. If re-elected, I will be on my third term and my passion to work for this heritage city remains ardent as ever.
My legislative advocacies are as follows:
1) Heritage Conservation - as a UNESCO World Heritage Site, Vigan's rich historical and cultural properties must be preserved;
2) Barangay Tourism - tourism promotion should not be concentrated in the poblacion alone. It must be dispersed to the barangays so that the economic benefits shall be felt by the people;
3) Job generation thru Micro entrepreneurship - small business must be encouraged to keep the economy moving in order to alleviate poverty;
4) Quality education - focus should now be given to improve the quality of education in the city ;
5) Rehabilitation of Vigan rivers - the on-going rehabilitation of the rivers of Vigan should be sustained. The rivers should not only be navigable but must become a source of livelihood for the people;
6) Institutionalization of accident insurance for tricycle drivers and operators - a legislation should be passed granting accident insurance for tricycle drivers and operators.
