Jose "Joey" David Lina Jr., KGCR (born December 22, 1951) is a Filipino lawyer, politician, businessman, public servant, and radio personality who is the former governor of Laguna and former Senator of the Philippines.[1] The youngest Senator during his time at the age of 35.[2] He was the author of the "Lina Law" or Republic Act No. 7279.[3] He is currently the President of Manila Hotel. [4]
Lina attended the University of Santo Tomas and graduated with a Bachelor's degree in Economics in 1975. He would later attend the University of the Philippines College of Law in Diliman, where he would also join the Alpha Phi Beta Fraternity in 1977.
After Marcos was ousted, Lina was appointed acting Governor of Metro Manila, serving from 1986 to 1987.
During the canvassing of votes in the 1992 election, Lina was present with Ilocos Norte Rep. Roque Ablan Jr. as representatives of presidential candidate Imelda Marcos.[5]
From 1995 to 2001, he served as Governor of Laguna. He was also concurrently the National President of the League of Provinces of the Philippines from 1998 to 2001.[6] Months before the supposed end of his term as Laguna governor, he was then appointed in January 2001 by newly-installed President Gloria Macapagal Arroyo as Secretary of the Interior and Local Government, serving until 2004.
