SENATOR Ramon Bong Revilla, Jr. has been declared an adopted son of the Province of Capiz during the celebration of Capiztahan 2025, held on Sunday (April 6), in commemoration of the 124th founding anniversary of the Civil Government of Capiz.

The honorary title was conferred by Capiz Governor Fredenil “Oto” H. Castro, in recognition of Senator Bong Revilla’s unwavering support to the province and its people through the years.

In front of an enthusiastic crowd gathered for the province-wide celebration, Governor Castro proudly proclaimed: “Sa ilalim ng otoridad na ibinigay sa akin ng mga mamamayan ng probinsya ng Capiz dahil sa kanilang paghalal sa akin bilang gobernador ng lalawigan, ngayong araw ay aking ipinoproklama [at] pinaaabot ko sa lahat ng kinauukulan – sa kabundukan, sa karagatan, sa kapatagan ng lalawigan ng Capiz – na ikaw Senador Revilla, ay hindi lamang senador ng probinsya ng Capiz, kundi ikaw ay ituturing naming anak ng Capiz.”

Bong Revilla’s hand was raised by Governor Castro in a symbolic gesture to show their bond and gratitude, highlighting the support and pride of the people of Capiz. During the event, Governor Castro also formally endorsed the candidacy of Bong Revilla for re-election to the Senate, further cementing their alliance and the trust he has earned from Capiznons.

The veteran public servant personally joined Capiznons in the Capiztahan 2025 to show his appreciation for the province’s enduring support. The bond between the solon and Capiz has long been evident. During the 2019 senatorial elections, Bong Revilla was among the top five candidates who garnered the highest votes in the province – a reflection of Capiznons’ strong confidence in his leadership.

In his brief remarks, Senator Bong Revilla expressed deep gratitude for the rare honor, saying he was humbled by the gesture and reaffirmed his commitment to serving not only Capiz but the entire Filipino people with dedication and compassion.

As Capiz looks back on more than a century of heritage and progress, the declaration of Senator Bong Revilla as its adopted son stands as a meaningful reminder of unity, shared values, and the continuing partnership between national leaders and local communities.
