Mayor Vico Sotto is no longer a political star on the rise. He is the rock star of the moment, the upstart who defeated a long-entrenched dynasty, cleaned up City Hall, gave Pasigueños the services they should have received decades ago, and took on the Discayas, billionaire-contractors at the center of the swirling controversy over scandalous flood control corruption.
A shining star attracts both adoring supporters and unwelcome entities, players desperate to bask in reflected halo, eager to receive second or third billing, or just to be in the same bill as the young Sotto, to advance their political agenda. /Joey Salgado
