scenes from the Inauguration Ceremony - Ilocos Norte

Elected officials in the Provincial Government of Ilocos Norte took their oath of office during the Inauguration Ceremonies held at the Capitol, June 30. Along with the Mayors, Vice-Mayors and Board Members, all the elected members of the Marcos Family also attended: newly-elected Senator Ferdinand "Bongbong" Marcos, Jr.; his mother, former First Lady of the Philippines, now the new Congresswoman of the 2nd District of Ilocos Norte, Imelda Romualdez-Marcos; and Maria Imelda "Imee" R. Marcos who today took her oath as Governor, before a huge crowd of well-wishers. It is Imee Marcos' first time to be Governor, after having been a Congresswoman for the 2nd District of Ilocos Norte for three consecutive terms (1998-2007). 

There are two other Marcoses who hold office in the Provincial Government, they are: Angelo Marcos-Barba, new Vice-Governor; and Mariano "Nonong" Marcos II, who is a reelected Board Member. Both gentlemen are cousins of Imee and Bongbong.
