MAR ROXAS: “ONE OF THE GLOBAL LEADERS OF TOMORROW WHO IS EXPECTED TO SHAPE THE FUTURE.”
MAR ROXAS BROUGHT INTERNATIONAL RECOGNITION TO THE PHILIPPINES
Noong 2004, Si Mar Roxas ay naluklok sa pagka-Senador ng tumataginting na 20 milyong boto. Ito ang pinakamalaking naitala na boto para sa isang kandidato sa kasaysayan ng Philippine election.
Owing to his record of accomplishments as a public servant and political leader, the international community like the ASEAN & the United Nations described MAR as "one of the young leaders in politics and business who will bring Asia and the Pacific to the forefront of world affairs.” At the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland, MAR was named as "one of the Global Leaders of Tomorrow who is expected to shape the future."
KARAPATAN NG MAMIMILI, MURANG GAMOT, TRABAHO, AT EDUKASYON
As a congressman, MAR espoused consumer protection, underscoring the right of every Filipino to affordable medicines, as his personal advocacy. His landmark laws include, among others:
• RA 8759 - establishing in all municipalities a Public Employment Service Office which serves as employment facilitation and information center, and links all job opportunities within the region;
• RA 8748 - amending the Special Economic Zone Act by directly allocating to the municipality or city 2% (out of the 5%) gross tax to be collected from the establishments operating in the ecozone and providing for disturbance compensation for persons to be displaced or evicted by publicly-owned ecozones;
• RA 8756 - incentivizing the establishment of regional headquarters to encourage investment and operation of multinational companies in the country and to generate more jobs.
MAR's stint in the House is most noted for his principal authorship of RA 7880, also known as the Roxas Law, which ensures fair distribution of the education capital budget among all the provinces. This gave life to his advocacy for fair and equitable access to education, free from regional bias and political patronage considerations.
