Danding’s son running for congressman in Tarlac
BACOLOD CITY, Philippines – The youngest son of business tycoon Eduardo “Danding” Cojuangco Jr. is running for congressman in the first district of Tarlac in the 2016 elections.
Carlos “Charlie” Cojuangco, formerly of the fourth district of Negros Occidental, said on Monday that he is running for a seat in Congress representing the first district of Tarlac, where he has been a resident in the last two years.
Cojuangco, who also stays in his family’s Hacienda Balbina in Pontevedra, Negros Occidental, said, “Negros will always be home for me, but it is time to also do something for the province of my paternal roots.”
Cojuangco’s mother Gretchen is from Negros Occidental, while his father is from Tarlac.
“I am moving on, proud and happy in the thought that I have done something for the fourth district of Negros Occidental, that during our watch, we improved things for the district and our people,” Cojuangco said in a statement.
