for a reunion of families, or so it seems, for the second and third generation of politicians who were once allies, rivals, or protagonists in the Old Congress.
Lawmakers who represented the Lanao provinces in the Old Congress were once Nacionalista allies prior even to the first Marcos presidency in 1965, from the 1940s through the 1950s. Rep. Yasser Alonto Balindong of Lanao del Sur’s Second District is also Alonto’s grandson and is the son of 1971 Constitutional Convention Delegate lawyer Pangalian Balindong, a former Deputy Speaker of the House.
The old Alonto authored the law creating the Mindanao State University in 1959. During his presidency, however, Marcos Sr. granted the MSU stewardship to Congressman Muhammad Ali Dimaporo, a home political rival of Alonto and his brother in-law, Congressman Sultan Al-Rashid Lucman, a Liberal Party stalwart.
Marcos Sr. had dismissed political insinuations that dividing Cotabato was a political concession to his Nacionalista allies in Hilario de Pedro Sr., who was appointed the first governor of South Cotabato, and Mayor Jose Escribano of Tacurong.
