Given that it was the campaign season, I wasn’t given as much of a choice on how to spend my summer or at least a weekend of it. Now that the elections are over, I together with my wife are thinking of a little Rest and Relaxation to recharge and get prepared to go back to our respective work and careers very much prepared to give our all.
A lot of people now are probably thinking of enjoying the last weeks of summer season especially that it is extra hot nowadays given the El Nino phenomenon. Some are thinking of spending their time enjoying the beaches, going to cold getaways abroad or to Tagaytay, Boracay, Baguio, Palawan and other awesome destinations within the city, outside of the city or elsewhere.
The summer seasons gives students the time to unwind and be productive even outside of school, it gives families the chance to bond and have fellowship moments, it also gives employees the chance to have their own outings, it also gives groups, individuals and people in a relationship chances to make their lives more exciting and adventurous as well as spontaneous.
Let us take this opportunity to spend quality time with our friends and loved ones. As they say, no play and all work makes a person dull and less productive. Let us give time for everything including time to unwind and to getaway just for a time.
Ini liwat ang inyo amigo, abyan, primo kag sulugu-on, Iloilo City Councilor LEX Tupas, gasiling para sa padayun nga kauswagan kag pagsulong sang Syudad sang Iloilo, UGYON Iloilo. Ilonggos are worth working and fighting for.
To God be the Glory

With my wifey love together with COMELEC folks and friends
proclaimed as number 1 city councilor of Iloilo City with 92,227 votes. I am blessed and honored of such a strong support and a distinction.
Proof of voting
It's official. I was proclaimed this morning as number 1 or top City Councilor of Iloilo City with 92,227 votes. I was working and hoping to be given another chance to serve the city I love but I was given more than just another chance but a very strong and decisive mandate. Being number 1 is a blessing from God and a gift from the people of Iloilo City.
I am very excited to start on my 2nd term given the strong support and love of the people but I am also pressured given the apparently high expectations of people of me. What is certain is I will continue to give excellent and sincere public service or LEXcellence.
This strong victory is the victory of the people of Iloilo City. Without them, this wouldn't happen. I owe to them my post and it is incumbent upon me to truly show them that I deserve this much trust and I for sure will not fail them.
To God be the glory and this victory is of, from and for the people of Iloilo City.
Tomorrow is the day

One day to go and voters will cast their ballot and will hopefully make the best and most appropriate decisions.
I have always put city before self and the city's best interest before my own personal and political interests. I believe and know that the people of Iloilo City and the country in general love our communities and country that they will make well thought of decisions on who we will entrust our children's future to and what direction shall we embark on in the next 3 to 6 years.
Let us continue to work for progress. Let us work together. Let us think of our children and their future. Let us go to the right path.
I entrust my political fate and fortune at the hands of the people of Iloilo City with the blessing of God.
7 days to go...

I am very grateful, honored, privileged and humbled that even to the final surveys, we still retained our number 1 rank in the race for the seats in the City Council. Being the number 1 choice is a blessing from God and a gift from the people of Iloilo City. I will strive harder and work more and more to continue giving excellent and quality public service to the Ilonggos.
Thank you to everyone who believes in me and who are supporting me in my quest and journey to continue on being a man for others and a servant of the people. The gratitude will always be present.
Updanay kita sa padayun nga kauswagan...
Upod kita sa padayun nga pagsulong sang syudad...
Upod kita sa padayun nga dekalidad kag sincero nga pagserbisyo...
Ang kabaskog ni LEX Tupas halin kag bangud sa inyo...
Ululupod kita sa kadalag-an...
Lord, I offer my life to you and everything that I do, I do it all for your glory and for the benefit of the constituents that I serve...
On another note, just today, my wife had her first pelvic ultrasound and the doctor told us that our baby is normal, healthy but he's not yet quite sure of the gender. Thank you Lord. This is another awesome blessing and whatever gender our baby has, I'm glad to be an expectant father.
