Where reforms take root
The Freeman
|September 16, 2025
In his November 30, 2024 column for the Manila Bulletin, Sonny Coloma described former Public Works and Highways secretary Rogelio "Babes" Singson as a person for others.
Coloma wrote the piece after Singson was named Management Person of the Year by the Management Association of the Philippines earlier that week.
The column went on to highlight Singson's life through excerpts from his acceptance speech, where he thanked "his parents, wife and family, and those who mentored him through an illustrious career that has spanned more than five decades." Singson is also known to be a member of Ang Ligaya ng Panginoon, a small family-based organization affiliated with the Federation of Trans-Parochial Communities in the Archdiocese of Manila.
Both Coloma and Singson served in the Cabinet of the late president Noynoy Aquino. Singson is now set to join the Independent Commission for Infrastructure (ICI), which will investigate the alleged corruption in flood control projects.
