Carmencita de la Paz Ongsiako-Reyes (November 9, 1931 – January 7, 2019) was a Filipina politician and jurist who served as governor of Marinduque from 2010 until her death in 2019, a position she had previously held from 1998 to 2007.

She was also a member of the House of Representatives representing Marinduque from 1987 to 1998 and again from 2007 to 2010, and served as an assemblywoman in the Interim and Regular Batasang Pambansa from 1978 to 1986.[4][5][6][7][2]

Batasang Pambansa Assemblywoman

Reyes won a seat in the Batasang Pambansa in 1984 under the ruling Kilusang Bagong Lipunan of President Ferdinand Marcos. Reyes was a close ally of the Marcos regime. Her husband, Edmundo M. Reyes, was appointed by President Marcos as the Commissioner on Immigration. Reyes served as an Assemblywoman until the 1986 People Power Revolution, which drove Marcos out of power.
