MAR ROXAS
A U.S.-educated investment banker and the richest Philippine presidential aspirant, Mar Roxas, 58, is banking on his clean image in a country where two presidents have been forced out and a third remains in detention on alleged corruption.
President Benigno Aquino III has endorsed the candidacy of Roxas, who in turn vows to continue his "straight path" style of leadership and support most of his policies, including allowing U.S. forces access to local military camps amid the sea feud with China. Roxas, however, doesn't favor the Philippines joining the U.S.-led Trans Pacific Partnership, fearing it will adversely impact local agriculture.
