Pacquiao vs. Chiongbian or Dominguez for congressional bid - May 10, 2010 election

June 10, 2009

The Chiongbian Family, who has practically created Sarangani, has expressed confidence that they could maintain their hold on the province.

Sarangani was part of South Cotabato until 1992 when it was “fathered” by the late congressman James Chiongbian (father of incumbent Erwin).

Since then the province remained under the Chiongbian clan.

While the clan is confident of maintaining their hold through Gov. Dominguez, the governor seems to have apprehensions about facing Pacquiao inside the political ring.

A political clan in Sarangani said it remains unfazed even with Manny Pacquiao’s announcement of congressional bid in their province.

The celebrated Filipino boxer, who has just beaten 10-time world boxing champ Oscar de la Hoya, went to the Commission on Elections (Comelec) office in Kiamba on Monday to register as a voter in Sarangani.

The possible opponent of Manny Pacquiao was Roy Chiongbian or Gov. [Miguel Rene] Dominguez on  congressional race, while Rep. Erwin Chiongbian Sarangani  Province was already serving his third and final term.
