Angelo de Alban: Against All Odds in His Senatorial Bid
To many, he’s just the ‘David’ who waged battle against the ‘Goliaths’ in Philippine politics; and in fact, he’s accused of being a nuisance candidate for the senatorial slate; but the attorney by profession, an educator and a Journalism graduate from the University of Santo Tomas (UST), Angelo de Alban is all set to fight and run against the more established politicians this coming 2019 elections.
Despite the attempts to disqualify his bid for the legislative body, he just replied to those who launched an attack on him; placed him as someone who is not qualified to run due to lack of financial backing and political machinery. The towering, model-and-basketball player-like would-be politician who stands at six feet and six inches tall is determined to pursue his dream of uniting Filipinos for a better tomorrow via an integrated education system without any corruption and unnecessary workload, a comprehensive health service available that is affordable for everyone, and a nationwide agriculture structure to ensure quality and quantity for a growing population.
And being a journalism graduate, he is one in combatting FAKE news that continues to proliferate especially on the Internet. He is also bent in pushing for better status for the country’s educators; protecting their rights and providing them the right benefits as well.
Given his professional background as a lawyer, it allowed him to be exposed to varied abuses committed against the hardworking members of the economic sector. To know more about Atty. De Alban, log on to his official website.
