| The
League of Provinces asked some governors the question, |
“WHY
AM I ENDORSING THE SENATORIAL BID OF GOVERNOR CHAVIT
SINGSON?”. |
These
are their responses: |
| |
 |
ATTY.
EDGAR RAMONES LARA
Governor, Province of Cagayan
Vice President for Luzon, LPP
Chair for Region II, LPP |
“A
man of clear visions, Governor Chavit Singson, will
provide the much-needed leadership support as we gear
towards a more competitive society. His experience shall
provide the necessary guide as we cross more assertively
to the demands of time. A known advocate of constructive
changes and a firm believer of the Filipino ability,
Governor Chavit will surely steer the Philippine Senate
in greater stead.” |
 |
 |
BENJAMIN
T. LOONG
Governor, Province of Sulu
Chair
for ARMM, LPP |
“Gov.
Singson deserves to be elected as Senator of the Philippines
because he is the voice of the local government officials
in Congress. Gov. Chavit, being also a local official
like us, knows the aspiration of the local government
units. Once elected as senator, he can further strengthen
and further promote genuine local autonomy in the country.”
|
|
 |
ATTY.
VICTOR F. ORTEGA
Governor, Province of La Union
Board Member-at-Large, LPP |
“I
am endorsing Gov. Singson as a Senator because I know
him to be a good person. Gov. Singson has been a big
help to the Ilocano people and the tobacco industry,
especially with the passage of the Tobacco Excise Tax
Law, a landmark legislation which he authored when he
was Congressman of the 2nd District of Ilocos Sur.”
|

 |
IMELDA
QUIBRANZA-DIMAPORO
Governor, Province of Lanao del Norte
Chair for Region X, LPP |
Gov.
Chavit Singson deserves to be elected as a senator so
he could be the voice of the local governments in the
Senate. He has been a governor for a very long time,
and knows the problems and concerns of the local governments
and he would be the best person to address them in the
Senate. He is unlike the other senators whom we fully
supported in the past, who, after winning the elections
would barely entertain us, and if they do entertain
us, there would be no action on our requests. |
|
 |
ATTY.
ERICO B. AUMENTADO
Governor, Province of Bohol
National President, LPP |
Gov.
Singson represents a no non-sense form of public service
and governance to improve the quality of life of our
people in the countryside. His long track record and
experience as a governor will provide renewed relevance
in the legislative agenda of the government for genuine
countryside development. Moreover, Gov. Singson can
immensely contribute in realizing the vision of the
present administration of President Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo
to build a stronger and more progressive republic in
the next six (6) years.

SALVACION
ZALDIVAR-PEREZ
Governor, Province of Antique
Chair, Regional Development Council VI |
I
am endorsing Gov. Chavit Singson as senator because,
among the candidates, he is one of the few who know
and understand the challenges being faced by the local
governments. Having been the governor of Ilocos Sur
for several terms, he knows what needs to be done for
the provinces to spur its development. I have seen what
he has done for Ilocos Sur, and I am sure that in the
Senate he can do more to help in the development of
the countryside.

TERESITA
S. LAZARO
Governor, Province of Laguna
Assistant Treasurer, LPP |
Gov.
Chavit Singson is a good governor, who helps not only
his province, but other provinces and local government
units as well. He has also maintained good linkages
with the governors and other leaders as well. He is
generous to all and does not discriminate on whom to
help. Gov. Singson is also a good friend.
|
|

RAUL
R. LEE
Governor, Province of Sorsogon |
I
am endorsing the senatorial bid of Gov. Chavit Singson
because he can best represent the total implementation
of the Local Government Code, unlike Sen. Pimentel whose
idea of devolution and local autonomy was only on paper,
but not in practice. Chavit in his long time experience
as a local chief executive can best serve the interest
of the LGUs, especially in championing genuine devolution
and local autonomy. This is aside from the fact that
he is my friend.

ROSETTE
Y. LERIAS
Governor, Province of Southern Leyte
Vice-President for Visayas, LPP
Chairperson, Eastern Visayas Regional Development
Council |
“I
am endorsing Gov. Chavit Singson because he will be
the voice of the Local Government Units in the Senate.”
|
|
 |
PEDRO
L. BACANI
Governor, Province of Quirino |
I
am endorsing Gov. Chavit Singson for Senator because
I believe that he can best carry the issues of the local
governments, particularly those relative to genuine
local autonomy and decentralization in the Senate.
|
|
 |
ATTY.
JOSE V. YAP
Governor, Province of Tarlac |
I
am endorsing Gov. Chavit Singson, firstly because as
governors, we have collectively endorsed him, through
the League of Provinces of the Philippines, to champion
the concerns of the local government units and local
government officials relative to reinforcing local autonomy
and ensuring local development. Both of them are likewise
my friends.

LORETO
LEO S. OCAMPOS
Governor, Province of Misamis Occidental
Public Information Officer, LPP
Chairman, Northern Mindanao Regional Development
Council |
I
am supporting the senatorial candidacy of Gov. Chavit
Singson for three reasons: first, because of his broad
experience in governance; second, he is the best person
to bring the concerns of local government units, especially
that of the governors, to the Senate; and, third, he
is a man of integrity and competence.
|
|
 |
BORROMEO
P. MELCHOR
Governor, Province of Benguet
Chairman for CAR, LPP |
I
personally endorse Gov. Chavit Singson as a senator
because as a long-serving governor, he knows the problems
that the LGUs are faced with. There is an urgent need
to amend many provisions in the Local Government Code
and he would be in the best position to propose them,
coming from the LGU himself. Gov. Singson has and can
still do a lot to support the development of the provinces.
|
|

LUISA
L. CUARESMA
Governor, Province of Nueva Vizcaya |
Gov.
Chavit Singson is a co-local government leaders, an
Ilocano, and will surely support local government units
in the Senate. |
