Quick Introduction: Mayor Niña Jose-Quiambao

Our Guest of Honor and Speaker, more popularly known as the former actress Niña Jose, is the very first female Mayor of Bayambang.  

She is a graduate of Assumption College in Manila, and finished Entrepreneurship in Emerging Economies from Harvard Business School.

Before becoming Mayor, she worked as the President of the Local Council of Women of Bayambang, President of the Agricultural Infrastructure and Leasing Corporation, President of Kasama Kita sa Barangay Foundation, Inc., and founder of Niña Cares Foundation. Through these companies and organization, her family has served the people of Bayambang by donating to and caring for the needy and vulnerable sectors using private funds.

As mayor of Bayambang since 2022, she is determined to continue the Rebolusyon Laban sa Kahirapan, the flagship antipoverty program of her husband, former Mayor Cezar T. Quiambao.

With her motherly approach to governance, she has endeared herself to the people of Bayambang through her clean-and-green program and various projects that reach out to marginalized sectors.

Beyond these accomplishments, she is also as a devoted, loving, and kind-hearted wife to husband Cezar and mother to their children.

Ladies and gentlemen, it is my honor to introduce to you the remarkable woman behind the progress and development of Bayambang. Please join me in warmly welcoming our beloved leader, Mayor Mary Clare Judith Phyllis Niña Jose-Quiambao!
