Alex Lacson Biography

Alex Lacson is one of the most popular and richest Celebrity who was born on January 5, 1965 in Kabankalan, Philippines. Lacson was born on 5 January 1965 in the Pinaginpinan barangay of Kabankalan, Negros Occidental, the sixth of eight children. His mother, Fe Tenefrancia Ledesma, was a public school teacher who taught second graders in the barrios of Kabankalan. His father, Jose Ramos Lacson, who had only a high school education, became a land surveyor and eventually a businessman. Lacson’s parents separated when he was in high school.

The second formative event for Lacson was a one-week suspension from his high school after he led a boycott of classes in 1982, around two months before his graduation. After a classmate was threatened and verbally abused by the husband of a faculty member, Lacson and the classmate’s parents demanded an apology, but the school authorities refused. After weeks of inaction, Lacson, as the class president, led a school-wide boycott of classes for several days. Until then, Lacson had been the valedictorian of his class, but after the boycott, his grade in deportment went down and he graduated as salutatorian.

As a student, Lacson was the leader of three campus organizations: president of the Association of Political Science Majors, chairman of the Independent Student Alliance political party, and lord chancellor of the Alpha Phi Beta fraternity at the UP College of Law. He was also a member of the UP Law debate team, which defeated the Ateneo Law School team in 1992 in a competition hosted by the Association of Law Schools of the Philippines.

Lacson married fellow lawyer Pia Peña in 1995, and they have four children: Theo, Angeli, Ally, and John.

After finishing high school in 1982, Lacson received a full scholarship at the Philippine Military Academy in Baguio. He studied there for three years before transferring to the University of the Philippines Diliman (UPD), where he earned a bachelor’s degree in political science in 1991. In order to finance his studies at UPD, he worked as a professor’s assistant by day and as a telemarketer by night. He also received help from his sister, who was working in Japan. When he entered the University of the Philippines College of Law, he decided to work full-time during the day and study at night; he graduated in 1996.
