Jejomar Binay, Mayor of Makati City, placed fourth in this year’s World Mayor Award. I’m not a resident of Makati, but I voted for him on the World Mayor site. John So, Lord Mayor of Melbourne, was at top spot.
The site’s description of him says he is an “…embodiment of a city leader who can inspire the masses and irk the national political establishment. As well as a hard-earned reputation for sound city management, he can point to a leading role in restoring democracy to the Philippines after two decades of dictatorship.”
A definite reason the present administration sees him as a threat.
