His political career did not soar high at the beginning. In 2007, he decided to run against then-incumbent Congresswoman Darlene Antonino Custodio but the boxing champ failed to win the position of South Cotabato 1st District Representative.

Three years after that, he aimed the congressional seat once again but this time it was in Saranggani, the hometown of his wife Jinkee Pacquiao, and he won. In 2016, he ran for senator and also won.

“Hindi niya pa iniisip ‘yun. Well, maraming nag-e-encourage. Pero ang lagi niyang sinasabi, ‘in God’s will,” Pacman’s business manager shared. Vegafria added that Manny also received several movie offers abroad, based on the article.

“May mga offer from other countries, dami eh, iba-iba. May Hollywood, may Hong Kong, may China, marami eh,” he said. According to Vegafria, most of the offers are for action films, however, the boxing champ is more focus now in his job as a public servant.
