Ronald Singson resigns as congressman

Ronald Singson has resigned as congressman of the first district of Ilocos Sur.

A one-page resignation letter was presented to Speaker Feliciano Belmonte Jr. by Ronald’s father, Ilocos Sur Governor Chavit Singson. He said that he was resigning not because of pressures from his fellow congressman but as a fulfillment of his promise to his father. Ronald was found guilty by a Hong Kong court of trafficking cocaine for his personal use and was sentenced to 18 months in prison.
