Who Exactly Are We?
Some of us are here in Sta. Rosa a long time, and many years ago Manoy Alipon seemed to be what we were looking for. He was an ex-seminarian who persuaded us that his motives were to do the best he could for local people. We supported his quest to become Chairman of Barangay Balibago. Then his corrupt actions revealed the truth to us. He was not interested in local people at all. He wanted to make more and more money for himself. This was his real purpose in barangay politics. His greed led to his grafts and corruptions that soon became notorious in political circles throughout all of Laguna.
Like local businesses squeezed dry by Kap Manoy's abusive extortions, we the voters began to think again and eventually recognized our mistake. Manuel Manoy Alipon was not the right man for the job. But our awakening was too late. He was was one step ahead of us, because already he used the same fraudulent techniques at election time in 2007 to become Vice Mayor of Santa Rosa, Laguna, the most corrupt vice mayor in its history. His gang of illegally armed city staff became notorious for carrying out his evil orders without question.
OUR BACKLASH SUCCEEDED - CONGRATULATIONS TO THE MANY THOUSANDS OF GOOD PEOPLE OF SANTA ROSA LAGUNA ON USING THEIR VOTER POWER AND UNITING AGAINST GANGSTERISM IN MAY 2010 TO RID CITY HALL OF MANUEL MANOY ALIPON WHO WAS THE MOST CORRUPT VICE MAYOR IN SANTA ROSA'S HISTORY. TOGETHER WE REPLACED THIS EVIL CORRUPT GANGSTER WITH A YOUNGER MAN, ARNEL DC GOMEZ, WHO IS A CITY VICE MAYOR OF GENUINE FAITH, INTEGRITY AND HONOR. WITHOUT ALIPON'S GRAFTS, CORRUPTIONS, EXTORTIONS AND ARMED ROBBERIES, FAMILIES AND BUSINESSES WILL NOW FIND THAT SANTA ROSA CITY PROPER WILL AT LAST BECOME A HEALTHY PLACE TO LIVE, WORK, STUDY, PLAY AND PROSPER. GOOD VOTERS OF BALIBAGO, NEVER ALLOW CORRUPT MANUEL MANOY ALIPON OR HIS FAMILY OR CRONIES TO HIJACK AND CONTROL OUR BARANGAY AGAIN. VOTE FOR HONEST CANDIDATES WHO WILL BE FAR BETTER LEADERS THAN THEM!!!
For all of us voters it is important to examine how local politicians win elections. They win by one or more of 5 methods only. Either: 1) they have honestly and legitimately persuaded people to vote for them, or 2) they have dishonestly and fraudulently persuaded people to vote for them, and/or 3) they have bought votes for just a few pesos per vote, and/or 4) by bribery and other means they have falsified the election results, and/or 5) they have murdered their opponents. Manuel "Manoy" Gonzales Alipon was guilty of reasons 2, 3, 4 and 5. His motive was to make himself extremely rich by abuse of public office with graft, corruption, extortion, plunder, robbery and murder. Our city, our children and our grandchildren deserve better than this. Our National Heroes gave their lives for better than this. Now at last their dreams can become reality. LONG LIVE SANTA ROSA! LONG LIVE FREEDOM! LONG LIVE VOTER POWER!
