Four
bets for SK to perpetuate dynasty?
Are
local officials perpetuating dynasty by allowing their children
to actively join the Sangguniang Kabataan or is it just for
the noble desire to serve the public?
At
least four aspirants for Sangguniang Kabataan provincial federated
(SKPF) president have surfaced recently even before the municipal
level takes off.
The
latest to signify is the 17-year old Sandrena Naldoza Schreurs,
daughter of Garcia-Hernandez Mayor Myrna N. Schreurs. She
is slated to join the derby for SK highest post, said his
father Vim Schreurs in an interview yesterday.
"Ï
don't want to stop her personal ambition," said Vim,
saying he will support her and serves as her adviser.

But
Vim said that this could only happen if his daughter
gets elected in the SK municipal level. Schreurs counts
on the support of 26 of 30 barangays. Sandrena, 17,
a first year nursing student, is the fourth to have
an inclination to serve as SKPF president. She was uncontested
in the recent elections of barangay East Canayaon.
Earlier
on, Jean Cajes, daughter of Congressman Roberto Cajes,
reportedly wanted to become SKPF president, apparently
to follow the footsteps of her sister Frances Bobbith
Cajes-Auza, who served for five years after two SK polls
postponement in 2005 and 2006.

Also,
Maria Fe Cadelina, daughter of Bilar Mayor Fanuel Cadelina
and Rochelle Brigitte Imboy, daughter of Loay Mayor Mae Lim
Imboy, are eyeing the same post that may earn the lucky one
to be an ex-officio member of the Sangguniang Panlalawigan.
For
his part, Mayor Cadelina said in separate interview that his
daughter has not yet made up her mind but whatever would be
the decision it could be the family's collective decision.
Maria
Fe Cadelina, 17, a second year nursing student, was also uncontested
in barangay Cabacnitan, Bilar town, the mayor said. He added
that there is big chance for her to clinch the post in the
municipal level because she has with her 15 out of 19 barangays.
Vim
Schreurs said he and his wife Myrna are banking on the support
of the so-called Group of Ten mayors in 3rd district while
at the same time courting other mayors.
The
Group of Ten has not reached a decision yet whether to throw
support or not to his daughter after its initial meeting in
G-Hernandez last week, he said. (RVO)
