Triumph for Heritage Conservation


It's Final, we have been proclaimed winners in the 2007 Vigan Election by the City Board of Canvassers. It's a sweep for our team. We all won, from the Mayor down to the 10th councilor. In my case I defeated my rival, ABC President Constante Benzon by more than 3,540 votes for the position of City Vice Mayor. With God's help, I made it again!
The victory is a triumph for Heritage Conservation. Among others, our team has adopted CONSERVATION as platform of government. The group solidly stands for the protection of Vigan's rich heritage.

MAY 14, 2007 ELECTION DAY

Today is Election Day here in the Philippines, campaign is over and we are now on the stage of exercising our right of suffrage. The temporary disunity caused by the campaign will soon come to end, and the healing process will start. This is Democracy at work. Better said than done? maybe yes, under Philippine setting but as a politician for more than 20 years, I remain committed in making politics a respectable calling.

Here in Vigan, since the position of Mayor is uncontested, with Eva Medina having no opponent, focus is given to the position of Vice Mayor, being contested by yours truly, Franz Ranches and my opponent ABC President Constante Benzon. Recent survey shows that I am still leading comfortably over my adversary. Despite the encouraging results of two surveys conducted, I really campaigned hard in order to ensure my victory.
