Three noted media practitioners in Aklan set their sights on becoming an elected public servant come the synchronized barangay and Sangguniang Kabataan (SK) elections on October 29.
Veteran broadcaster Conrado Sarabia Indelible and field reporter Mark Mitchell Celiz Sy of Rainbow Global Media Arts (RGMA) DyRU Super Radyo Kalibo and Radio Mindanao Network (RMN) DyKR Kalibo station manager Jerome Timtiman Vega announced their intention to run for public office a little more than two weeks before the scheduled elections.
DyRU’s public affairs director Indelible, who hosts “Parke de Libertad,” is eyeing a council seat in Brgy. Andagao, one of the biggest barangays of the capital town.
He joined the media industry in 1981 with DyKR Radyo Agong ng Kalibo before he was known as “Kaibahang Conrad” in RGMA DyRU in 1998.
Vega, the youngest station manager of DyKR and the current vice chairman of the Kapisanan ng mga Brodkaster ng Pilipinas (KBP) Aklan chapter, will give government service a try as he is being pushed to run by their community leaders in Camanci Sur, Numancia, Aklan.
Sy, better known as “Kaibahang Mark” of Brgy. Poblacion, Kalibo, started in 1998 as field reporter for DyKR. He later joined RGMA Super Radyo Kalibo in 2002.
All the three candidates assured they will undergo the mandatory drug test in accredited and authorized drug testing centers as stated in Comelec Resolution No. 8302.
The drug certificates of all candidates should be filed with the Office of the Election Officer not later than October 18. /MP
