After a nearly six-year hiatus from politics, Maricel Morales, the former beauty queen and actress known as “Marang,” is making a comeback by running for councilor in Angeles City. She officially filed her Certificate of Candidacy on the last day of the application period, signaling her intent to re-enter the political arena.
Morales previously served as a councilor for nine years, earning recognition for her contributions to the community. In 2019, she sought to elevate her political career by running for vice mayor but faced defeat in that election. Her return is seen as a significant move in the local political landscape, as she aims to regain her foothold in public service.
Supporters are optimistic about her candidacy, highlighting her experience and dedication to the city. Morales’s journey reflects a broader trend of public figures transitioning back into politics, fueled by a desire to serve their communities once again. As the election approaches, all eyes will be on Marang and her campaign to see if she can reclaim a position of influence in Angeles City politics.
