STA. CRUZ, Laguna. Laguna 3rd District Representative Loreto “Amben” S. Amante officially filed his candidacy for a second term this morning, October 7, 2025, at the Commission on Elections (Comelec) office in Sta. Cruz, Laguna. Running under the Lakas-Christian Muslim Democrats (Lakas-CMD) party, Amante arrived early alongside key supporters and local leaders to submit his Certificate of Candidacy.
Amante, known for his grassroots approach to governance, is seeking re-election to continue his programs to foster stronger community engagement and address local concerns. His Serbisyong Tama initiatives, which focus on strengthening ties with barangay leaders and providing timely solutions to community issues, have been a cornerstone of his first term. To enhance these efforts, he established satellite offices in Nagcarlan and Calauan and his main office in San Pablo City.
Amante’s Serbisyong Tama project is a comprehensive initiative designed to assist the people of Laguna’s 3rd District in vital areas such as health, education, livelihood, employment, and other basic services. Through this program, his office has facilitated free medical missions, scholarship grants, livelihood training, and job placement opportunities, ensuring that essential services are more accessible to constituents. “Our goal with Serbisyong Tama is to uplift the lives of every resident in the 3rd District by addressing their most pressing needs,” he emphasized.
“These satellite offices are crucial to our goal of bringing government services directly to the people. We want every barangay in the 3rd District to feel represented and supported,” Amante stated.
