Mayor Antolin “LenLen” Oreta III of Malabon City

The nephew of the late Hon. Canuto Oreta, the former mayor of this thriving coastal community, Mayor Antolin “LenLen” Oreta III took over his uncle’s post when the latter died in office. Under his leadership, the Malabon city government was able to complete 80 percent of its targeted goal in infrastructure projects.

Among these are the rehabilitation and construction of school buildings and child development centers, the upgrade of the public library, and the expansion of Concepcion Market along General Luna in partnership with private investors.

The complex now has 120 additional stalls, 13 eateries, four commercial units, and parking spaces.

Mayor Oreta’s battle cry, “Kaya naten,” has proven that optimism can fuel change for the better.
