Mercado: Mamac: Our Man in Angeles

LIBERAL party (LP) leaders from Central Luzon Region will convene at the LP national headquarters March 28 to conduct a “Facilitators Training and Seminar on Liberal Democracy”; it was learned from Balibago chairman Tony Mamac who also heads the LP Angeles City Chapter.
Mamac perceived the regional workshop as a preparation for the next elections and as a commitment to President Aquino’s good governance agenda.
The former police major heads the city delegates to the conference and joins Central Luzon leaders in expressing confidence in the President’s reform policies.
San Fernando City Mayor Oscar Rodriquez leads provincial party leaders of Central Luzon Region and has his own plans of consolidating and expanding existing and future forces for Liberal Democracy.
During the Presidential campaign, Noynoy Aquino was overwhelmed by the mammoth crowd mobilized by Mamac upon short notice. Impressed by that spectacle, Mr. Aquino had no second thoughts in naming the Balibago chairman as head of the LP in Angeles. “He found great potentials in the former police officer as a leader and willing apostle to his future “matuwid na daan” program,” it was learned from a businessman-director of a state corporation, now in the hands of Aquino-Mar Roxas adherents.
“To us in the barangay level, we are impressed by President Aquino’s campaign to curb corruption and eliminate red tape,” Mamac reported. On the larger scale the President’s reform agenda saw discernible improvement in the national savings rate, the ability to manage inflation and increase the nation’s credit ratings by global financial institutions, he added.
He believes that the “liberal democracy” orientation will reinforce and give life to the “matuwid na daan” principle and vision of Aquino.
Mamac said even if he may not run for higher office in the 2013 polls, he would spearhead the movement of local LP forces to help confront underhanded tactics by local detractors of the President.

He said City Mayor Pamintuan and himself have no quarrel, nor intend to wage war against the city executive.
“I know his position and he knows mine. My beef is with the City Council which could not reasonably resolve or justify an ordinance regulating barangay clearance fees.
On the move concerning his barangay clearance fees, he said the Council has failed to accurately verify and properly validate alleged complaints and petitions received by the City Council and are, therefore, undocumented or classified as mere hearsay.
On the Ordinance creating a local motorized tricycle franchising regulatory board, he asked: Is this in consonance with the DOTC guidelines, specially its implementing sections? This issue covers transgression on the parameters of governmental powers and constitutional guarantees, he said.

In allegorical reference to a saying in the old world that all roads led to Rome, this Friday, March 23, all roads will lead to Barangay Cabalantian, Bacolor, where Pampanga’s Grand Dame, Lolita O. Hizon is celebrating her birthday. Her guest list is a “who’s who” in Pampanga.
Doña Lolita is the celebrated activist-business leader who was credited in helping bring Fr. Eddie Panlilio to the Capitol. Soon, heeding public outcry on the priest-governor’s governance style and performance, Mrs. Hizon steered up a storm to remove Gov. Panlilio by recall. “I committed a grave mistake and had to correct it,” she explained. The rest is history.
In Panlilio’s place is Gov. Lilia “Nanay Baby” who is No. 2 in my list of “Twelve Most Influential Women in Pampanga.” PGMA is the first placer.
Doña Lolita ranks next, not only by virtue of her wealth but by the strength of her persuasion and commitment to the ideals of her favorite saint, John the Baptist. She has a legion of adherents especially in her crusade against fraud and deceit. On this occasion of her diamond natal anniversary, Mabuhay Dona Lolita! May you continue to serve God and your beloved province.
