Francisco Moreno Domagoso (born October 24, 1974) is a Filipino politician. He is the 27th mayor and a former Vice Mayor of the City of Manila, the capital city of the Philippines; and a former three-term councilor of the city's first congressional district. He is also a former actor, using the screen name Isko Moreno, who started as a matinee idol and later became known for his mature roles in the "Titillating Films" genre that was prevalent in the country during the 1990s.[1]
Early life
Domagoso is the only child of Joaquin Domagoso (a stevedore at Manila's North Harbor) and Rosario Moreno (from Allen, Northern Samar).[2] He found alternative sources of income at the age of 10 by pushing a cart and going house-to-house to gather old newspapers and used bottles, then reselling them at a local junk dealer.[3] He also rummaged through restaurant garbage bins for leftover food, which his mother would recook for dinner.[1]
Acting
Domagoso caught the attention of talent scout Wowie Roxas in 1993 while attending a funeral in Tondo and was then persuaded to join show business.[2][4] He was part of That's Entertainment, a daily variety show featuring German Moreno's stable of aspiring teenage actors, under the screen name Isko Moreno.[1] His major break came in 1993 when he was cast in a cameo role in the romantic movie May Minamahal and became a leading man to Claudine Barretto in Muntik na Kitang Minahal a year later.[4]
He appeared in Siya'y Nagdadalaga, and has appeared in movies such as Exploitation, Mga Babae sa Isla Azul and Misteryosa .[5]
In 2005, during his third term as a councilor of Manila, he returned to acting as a kind-hearted priest in the television drama series Mga Anghel na Walang Langit .[4] He also had a brief appearance in 2007 in the television drama series Bakekang.[5] The following year during his first term as vice mayor, Moreno had a supporting role in the afternoon soap opera Ligaw na Bulaklak.
Politics
Moreno started his political career when he elected and sworn as councilor for Manila's first congressional district in 1998 and reelected in 2001 and 2004 respectively. In 2007, he later became vice mayor of the city. He took a crash course in Local Legislation and Local Finance at University of the Philippines.[2] He then studied public administration in Pamantasan ng Lungsod ng Maynila (University of the City of Manila) while fulfilling his alderman duties.[1] Moreno also attended in leadership and governance courses at the John F. Kennedy School of Government, Harvard University, and at the Said Business School of the University of Oxford. [6]
During his election campaign, he criticised what he called a "black propaganda" by opponents, but did not pursue any charges.[7] Domagoso eventually won the elections, beating the closest rival by about 80,000 votes.[2]
Moreno also serves as vice chairman of the Manila Historical and Heritage Commission and studies Law in Arellano University.[2][8]
In May 2012, Joseph Estrada, the former President of the Philippines, announced his intention to run for Mayor of Manila but only for one term in 2013. He intends to run with Domagoso, who is running for re-election as Vice Mayor.[9]
Estrada said, "I’m done with the presidency in Malacañang. Now, I will be moving to the city hall of Manila." He drove his famous “Jeep ni Erap” from San Juan to his new house at Altura, Sta. Mesa, Manila to ceremonially launch his candidacy. He was joined by his wife, former Senator Loi Ejercito and the Manila Vice Mayor. At least 25 of the 28 Manila councilors who were inducted last week as members of Estrada’s Pwersa ng Masang Pilipino, joined them in welcoming him.[9]
Domagoso said Manileños welcome Estrada and his wife, adding that they will try to make their stay in Manila comfortable.“We are humbled that the former president of the Philippines will live and stay in Manila,” Moreno said. “We are thankful he had chosen Manila,” he added.[9]
On February 16, 2013, Domagoso and other five councilors was arrested by the police, due to alleged bingo operations held in a public place, Moreno denied the bingo game is in the public place in Sta. Cruz, Manila, and he believe that Mayor Lim was involved in his arrest, and the bingo game is not illegal, the day before Lim and Estrada signed a "Peace Covenant" to prevent any election related violence in the City of Manila.[10]
In 2016, Domagaso announced that he would run for Senator of the Philippines. He lost in his bid placing 15th place overall.
On July 2017, President Rodrigo Duterte appointed him as the chairman of the board of the North Luzon Railways Corporation (NorthRail) until his resignation in October 2017.[11] In May 2018, he was appointed by Duterte as Undersecretary for Luzon Affairs at the Department of Social Welfare and Development. On October 11, 2018, he officially resigned from his post to run for Mayor of Manila in the 2019 elections.[12]
On May 13, 2019, Isko Domagoso Moreno won the mayoralty of Manila, over incumbent and former President Joseph Estrada via a landslide win of close to 150,000 votes more than the closest contender. Mayor Moreno was then officially proclaimed winner by the City Board of Canvassers the following day, 14 May.[13] Joseph Estrada conceded defeat also on the evening of 13 May.[14]
Personal life
He is married to his non-celebrity girlfriend, Diana Lynn Ditan since 2000. They have five children, Vincent Patrick (born 1998), Frances Diane (born 2000), Joaquín André (born 2001), Franco Dylan (born 2006), and Drake Marcus (born 2012).
