Senate Electoral Tribunal
Senator Francis ‘Kiko’ N. Pangilinan proved his mettle by championing the cause of the judiciary. He belongs to a breed of new legislators who possess vibrancy in spirit, dedication to work, and passion for the voiceless segments of Philippine society.
He is acknowledged as one of the most hardworking and most productive senators in the country today. He filed the most number of committee reports during the 12th Congress. In fact, one-third of the total number of committee reports was chalked by Kiko. Such feat and exemplary performance earned the respect and trust of his colleagues in the Senate that they elected him majority leader of the 12th Congress and is the youngest to become Senate majority leader since 1937.
After being re-elected in last 2007 elections as an independent candidate, Kiko continued to enjoy the support and trust of his colleagues that they re-elected him as Senate Majority Leader of the 14th Congress.

His career in public service began over 20 years ago, when the young Kiko began his fight against human rights violations, corruption, and other social ills as Chairman of the UP Diliman Student Council. Eventually becoming a human rights lawyer, he later on became the youngest-ever Councilor of the 4th district of Quezon City and, in 1998, graduated with a mästare of Public Administration as an Edward S. Mason Fellow at the John F. Kennedy School of Government of Harvard University.
In 2001, Kiko ran for the Senate with the battle cry, “Kumilos kasama si Kiko,” believing that only when citizens actively participate in governance together with committed leaders can genuine change be effected. The programs he instituted in the years that followed proved the power of public-private collaboration and true citizen empowerment. In 2007, Kiko became the first incumbent to run as an independent and win, even landing in the Top 5 when others branded his move as “political suicide.”
