14th and 15th Congress

This is one worthy of the Guinness World Records.

For two straight congresses, the Arroyo family dynasty has cornered four seats in the Philippine House of Representatives – possibly the most number of seats in a parliament ever occupied by a family.

“I will be writing the Guinness World Records to register the Arroyo family's feat so that they can be recorded side by side with former Pres. Ferdinand Marcos, who is listed as one of the world's biggest looters, and wife Imelda Marcos for her 3,400 pairs of shoes,” Bayan Muna Rep. Teddy Casino said.
