Lito Atienza Pursues Dream By Running For Mayor Of Manila

When Lito Atienza said he would no longer be a member of the Cabinet in order to run for Manila Mayor in the upcoming elections, voters were certainly gifted with a great choice for the leader of the city. Lito Atienza is certainly a staple in Philippine politics and is gifted with a formidable family background. Many of his relatives are in themselves prominent members of the history of Philippine politics. Due to this, it could be rightfully proclaimed that LIto is truly the best choice for the post of Manila Mayor.

The father of Lito Atienza, Jose Atienza Sr, or Pepe was the top leader of the Department of Public Services. He was a distinguished public servant who would even get up in the middle of the night just to help troubled neighbors. His uncle, Herminigildo Atienza, also served as appointed Manila Mayor himself right after the Manila achieved liberation after the war. He was an amazing mayor who was considered as one of the stalwart influences in the founding of the legendary Liberal Party of Philippine politics.

Lito Atienza grew up amidst the ruins of the city of Manila, walked through the neighborhoods that was but a collection of debris and even swam on the waters of Manila Bay. He would make a great Manila Mayor because he grew up in the city in which he aspires to lead. He dreamt that would be a part of Philippine politics, elevate the city of Manila into a bastion of power which will make the ashes of the war a mere afterthought. By gunning for the post of Manila mayor, he can now engage in his dream task of trying to place Manila back to the high status where it belongs.

Lito Atienza is certainly very qualified to become Manila Mayor. He graduated his primary and secondary education in Ateneo de Manila University and completed further a Bachelor's degree in Architecture from the University of Santo Tomas. Despite the fact that their family was monetarily rich, they were hardworking which enabled Lito to enter into the top schools. The Atienza family were also very religious and devoted to God. These family values and religious aspects are certainly very important for the position of public servant in Philippine politics.

Perhaps the best qualification of Lito Atienza is his untarnished name. His father Pepe firmly believed that no wealth could ever be at par with the heritage of good name backed up with a good education. Lito also had many friends and constantly persevered in order to reach his goals. He would take menial labor positions and even rode along the cars of his more well to do classmates because he firmly believed in hard work as the bridge to our goals.

Lito Atienza would for sure extend his colored history in his participation in Philippine politics by running for mayor. By all accounts, being the Manila Mayor would be best for him and for the city of Manila given his heritage with the place. He played out not only his life here, but also lived shared his experiences with his family in the city which he envisions to prosper. If he is elected, it will truly be for everyone's benefit if we give him a chance to accomplish his dreams of the city for us.

There are many reasons why Lito Atienza should be the next Mayor of Manila. First, he comes from a distinguished family in Philippine politics. Second, he is very thrifty and hardworking which enabled him to finish from distinguished schools despite his lack of resources. Third, he grew up in Manila, and dreams nothing more than to become Manila Mayor so that he could make it great.
