Edward Solon Hagedorn (October 12, 1946 – October 3, 2023) was a Filipino politician who was the mayor of Puerto Princesa, Philippines, and later the representative of Palawan's 3rd congressional district.
Hagedorn, also an environmentalist and anti-mining advocate,[1] served as city mayor of Puerto Princesa for two decades, only interrupted by a year since the Constitution set the limit at three consecutive three-year terms. He was first elected in 1992 and served until 2001 when he ran for governor of Palawan and lost; but was elected mayor again through the 2002 recall election, whose victory was later allowed by the Supreme Court,[2] and continued to serve until 2013.[3] He lost in his attempts in later elections, in Senate in 2013, as well as returning to mayorship in a 2015 recall and in 2016. In 2022, he was elected representative of Palawan's 3rd legislative district.[2]
Hagedorn's leadership was directed towards establishing harmony between the environment and development.[4][5] The mayor was credited with establishing the city as a model of eco-tourism for the country.[4]
His leadership was noted for Puerto Princesa, the capital of Palawan, being declared in 2007 a highly urbanized city, thus independent of the province;[4] and for the Puerto Princesa Subterranean River National Park being included in the New 7 Wonders of Nature.[2]
