Speaker Dy mourns death of Quirino Gov. Dax Cua

House Speaker Ferdinand Martin Romualdez on Wednesday expressed his profound sorrow over the passing of Quirino Governor Dakila Carlo “Dax” Cua. “For those of us who knew and worked with Dax, we mourn more than the loss of a leader. We mourn a colleague and a kailian [countryman],” Romualdez said in a statement. Governor Cua was a prominent figure in Philippine politics, particularly in regional governance. His passing is seen as a significant loss not only for Quirino province but also within the broader political landscape of the Philippines. Leaders like Governor Cua often play a crucial role in local development and the welfare of their constituents, and his absence may have a notable impact on the communities he served.
