Isko Moreno Fødselsdag, fødselsdato
Francisco "Isko" Moreno Domagoso (Tagalog pronunciation: [isˈkɔʔ mɔˈɾɛ.nɔ dɔ.maˈɡɔ.sɔ]; born October 24, 1974) is a Filipino politician, actor, host and entrepreneur who has served as the 29th mayor of Manila, the capital city of the Philippines, since 2025. The president of Aksyon Demokratiko, he previously served as the 27th mayor from 2019 to 2022 and was the party's candidate for president in the 2022 election.
Born and raised in the slums of Tondo, Manila, Moreno spent his childhood in poverty. He rose to fame as a matinee idol in a minor role in May Minamahal (1993), before transitioning to mature roles. He entered politics in 1998 after being elected to the Manila City Council where he served until 2007. At the same time, he pursued non-degree postgraduate education at Harvard Kennedy School and Oxford Saïd Business School on the advice of his mentor Danny Lacuna.
Moreno was elected vice mayor in 2007 and served three full terms under the mayoralties of Alfredo Lim and Joseph Estrada. Upon being term-limited, unsuccessfully ran for senator in the 2016 senatorial elections under Grace Poe's Senate slate, placing 16th out of 50 candidates. Following his loss, President Rodrigo Duterte as an undersecretary of social welfare. He would hold the position May to October 2018 before successfully running for mayor of Manila in the 2019 election, where he defeated his predecessors in a landslide victory, becoming the youngest mayor of Manila since the People Power Revolution.
During his first term, Moreno was regarded as one of the top-performing local chief executives in the Philippines; he has described his leadership style as akin to that of his predecessor Alfredo Lim, citing their shared commitment to reducing crime and maintaining the cleanliness of the capital. Moreno is also noted for his streetwise public image due to his use of colorful language coupled with Manila street slang. As a result, he is colloquially referred to as Yorme. His political career has been met with positive-to-mixed critical reception, gaining praise for his political will, efficiency, hands-on leadership, people skills, non-partisanism on designations, and results-oriented performance, but criticism for his sporadic spontaneous outspoken remarks, over-the-top populist tendencies, and lack of permanence to a national political party, although he remained a constant member since the inception of Asenso Manileño until 2024, a local party he co-founded.
In September 2021, Moreno announced his bid for the Philippine presidency in the 2022 presidential election, in which he finished fourth out of 10 candidates.
Having served in the government for 24 years, Moreno has received numerous recognitions for his public service. He is widely credited for "restoring Manila to its former glory within a short period of time", despite disinformation against him by political rivals. He is generally known for his firm implementation of city services, beautification of derelict historical sites, and leading the establishment of city infrastructure. He announced his first retirement from politics after his mayoral term ended on June 30, 2022, and ventured into business, content creation, and television hosting. In 2024, Moreno announced his return to politics, running once again for Mayor of Manila in the 2025 Philippine general election. He regained the mayoralty through a landslide victory, defeating erstwhile ally and incumbent Mayor Honey Lacuna.
