      1.   His association with a former mayor and son of big food manufacturing firm in Pamapanga;

      2.   A kababayan head of ABC in a city who was influential at SBMA

      3.   A kababayan who earlier did well at SBMA;

      4.   The 200 hectare of so property  that they could not touch in the said province

      5.   Business opportunity for a high value tree farming.
