After a brief tenure as the NHA General Manger, Atienza decided to join the 1988 mayoralty race of Manila where he lost to his then rival Mel Lopez who was supported by President Aquino. Despite the loss, his spirit and will to serve was never defeated as he would later run and win as Vice-Mayor in 1992 and 1995. <br /> <br /> In 1998 <a href="http://www.litoatienza.org/" target="_blank">Manila Elections</a>, Atienza finally won mayoralty seat and placed his name in history as the only Vice Mayor who got elected as city mayor As the <a href="http://www.litoatienza.org/" target="_blank">Mayor of Manila</a>.
