Ramon Ang, Chairman and CEO of San Miguel Corporation, has dismissed speculation that he is planning to enter politics amid widespread public calls for President Ferdinand "Bongbong" Marcos’ resignation over alleged government corruption.
In a Facebook post, Ang said, “Let me put things to rest: I am not entering politics.”
The statement comes as investor confidence in the country reportedly wavers due to ongoing issues of corruption.
In a report of RH Sophia Gans, Ang acknowledged receiving numerous messages and noticing circulating reports suggesting he might run for public office.
However, he emphasized that his expertise lies in business, project development, and supporting the government—roles he intends to continue.
“Our country is facing many challenges, and it is understandable that people want things resolved quickly. But moving forward will never depend on one individual. It will take government, private sector, and the public all moving in the same direction," Ang wrote.
"My focus is to support that effort. I will be a dependable partner in building our country, nothing more,” he added.
He stressed that the solution to the nation’s problems does not rely on a single person. Instead, he pledged to remain a dependable partner in national development.
Recently, San Miguel Corporation extended aid to communities affected by typhoons and severe flooding, providing support “at no cost to the people and no cost to the government.”
