Mabuhay!

I would like to welcome you all to this website which we have put up especially for our fellow Manileños and Filipinos.

I have taken the liberty of including all relevant information about my personal life and my career in public service to offer you a glimpse into who Mayor  Lito Atienza is. This website gives details about my family’s history, my career, my humble beginnings as a poster boy for the Liberal Party during the ’50s, my years as a stevedore at the Port Area, dancing and touring the world as a dancer with The Bayanihan Philippine National Folk Dance Company and my foray into the world of politics.

This website also offers a journey into our very successful two terms as Manila Vice Mayor from 1992-1998, and three consecutive terms as Mayor from 1998-2007.

We have fought battles on other fronts as well, such as our fight to preserve the sanctity of life and the family as President of Pro-Life Philippines. Through all these, my wife Beng and our six children have always stood by my side and supported me. I could not have gone through what I did without them and the wisdom imparted to me by my parents whose faith in God and in their son molded me into the man I am now.

It is my hope that with this website, you will get a chance to know Lito Atienza as a dedicated public servant and family man, whose only goal in life has always been to follow God’s will and be of service to his fellowman.
