VIGAN CITY– Re-electionist Ilocos Sur Rep. Ronald Singson was the first and only candidate to file a certificate of candidacy Friday when the provincial Commission on Elections office opened its doors for the first day of the filing of COCs.

A son of Deputy National Security Adviser Luis “Chavit” Singson, the congressman will run as a Lakas-Kampi-CMD bet.

His office said that among his accomplishments are the ongoing upgrading of the Vigan airport to make it accessible to commercial and international flights. It was partially reopened last Wednesday pending the release of P100 million from the national government to continue the upgrade.

In Sto. Domingo town, brothers Lito and Floro Tadena filed their COCs for mayor and vice mayor, respectively, Friday. Floro is on his third term as mayor and is sliding to the vice mayoral post.

Lito served as an executive of a multinational pharmaceutical firm and has been Floro’s chief supporter in past elections.
