Emerson S. Carlos is a Filipino lawyer and was the Assistant General Manager for Operations of the Metropolitan Manila Development Authority (MMDA) from January 4, 2011 to October 1, 2015. He was the agency's officer-in-charge and acting chairman following the resignation of Francis Tolentino, who resigned from his post to run for Senate in the 2016 elections.[1][2][3] He was also the over-all chairman of the Metro Manila Film Festival organizing committee in the final year of Benigno Aquino III's presidency. His term ended on June 30, 2016.[4]

However, 8 days later, he was reappointed as the officer-in-charge of the MMDA under the new administration of President Rodrigo Duterte.[5] Following calls for the resignation of all presidential appointees in a major revamp of the executive department, Carlos stepped down on August 19, 2016 and was replaced by MMDA General Manager Thomas Orbos as acting MMDA chairman.[6]
