Yes indeed, Manny has officially declared to gamble in politics again. And this time it appears he has a considerable preparation since his first attempt when he ran and lost as congressman against his igso Darlene Antonino at 1^st District of South Cotabato. Now, he is vying the same position but unlike before he chooses his territory very carefully.

He is putting his stakes at Sarangani. Onto another province here in the southern part of Mindanao, though it is still in close proximity, in fact adjacent, to General Santos City where he was raised and has struggled to become an amateur boxer. Technically speaking, he might qualify running a congressional seat in Sarangani because he has been establishing residency in the area by buying real properties and occasionally attending important events where political friends and would-be allies welcome him with both arms open.
