 1. Identify and give some examples of political dynasties in your  respective
locality (City/Municipality/Provinces) – National/Local Elected Positions.

The Lone District of City of San Jose del Monte, Bulacan According to the 2020
census, it has a population of 651,813 people, making it the largest local government
unit within the province of Bulacan. As per the Local COMELEC Office, it has a total of
261,740 registered voters for the 2022 National and Local Elections or a roughly 5.7%
increase from 2019’s 247,567.

In my City here the one family that hold in a position in our City
we have one Political Dynasty which is

Arthur B. Robes Florida P. Robes

Mayor Lone District
(Husband of Florida P. Congresswoman
Robes) (Wife of Arthur B. Robes)

Oliver Robes
Running for City Councilor
(Cousin of Arthur B.
Robes)

Now Mayor Arthur B. Robes is running again in their last term as a City Mayor
also their wife Florida P. Robes running again in their last tem as a Congresswoman of
Lone District, and now the first time of running as City Councilor of Oliver Robes. Their
Party in the National which is PDP-Laban, in local is ARangkada San Joseno.
2. Take a sample photos of their campaign posters and include/submit
also the file photo as part of the task.
 3. Are you aware of the existence of a Constitutional provision against political
dynasties? Yes or No?

Yes

4. Are you in favor or not in favor of political dynasty? and Explain?

I am not in favor of the Political Dynasty because it is one of the things that
oppresses our countrymen, but we can still say that there are political Dynasty families
that are beautiful really what is being done in their area, but it's just sad because it's
already being done by the corrupt political business, and when it also doesn't have the
opportunity for others to govern and run, there's just something pending with the
congress about it but it's unlikely to pass because it's family those who study and also
pass it, but there is already a law in the SK- reform law act 2015 which prohibits Sk that
when his term ends and someone can run again from his family. But nationally and
locally there is still no such law, it is hard to imagine that they are one of the
beneficiaries of these positions as well, instead of helping other people. For me it does
not apply to our country which the International always lists as one of the corrupt
countries.

5. Does political dynasty effective in terms of development?

It always has two effects, it is not good or good management, but sometimes in
other places families are sitting in positions and sometimes there is no understanding,
so it has an effect on the development of a local, we can see that there are his -his
interest is the other family, just like when they build a business that should be another
investment that he enters here, having patronage in every department of this city, that
should be the ones who need the most first and given, this is just one to the effect that
was not good on the Political dynasty.
