CITY OF SAN FERNANDO – Unopposed Third District Rep. Aurelio “Dong” Gonzales, Jr. won his last term in office as he garnered 280,375 votes.

This is Gonzales' fifth term as Representative of Pampanga's third district, having served from 2007 to 2010, 2010 to 2013, 2016 to 2019, and 2019 to 2022.

Earlier this year, he pushed for longer terms for the President, congressmen, and local officials under Resolution of Both Houses No. 7.

Gonzales’ daughter Mica Gonzales won the highest votes for third district board member with

227,603 votes.

The lawmaker’s son Aurelio Brenz Gonzales is the leader councilor-elect of the City of San Fernando with 82,006 votes.

The two siblings are newcomers to provincial politics and have received massive support owing to their father’s support base.

Representative Gonzales said that the trust the people had given him and his children will be reciprocated with good governance and a lot of social service assistance.

THREAT. According to a Capitol consultant, the Cebu City Government is threatening to shut down the Cebu North Bus Terminal at the back of SM City Cebu (left) and the Cebu South Bus Terminal along N. Bacalso Ave. for operating without a business permit. The Province, which runs both terminals, maintains that it operates the facilities as a public service for passengers going to the province and vice versa. /
