Actions are more important than words.In the case of former Manila mayor Lito Atienza he had succeeded in doing both.One of the most revered leaders of the nation's capital, the former mayor was able to back up his strong words with actions.

He succeeded in addressing almost all the social needs of his people by creating programs for housing, healthcare, peace and order, education, sports, arts and culture, nature and environment and welfare of senior citizens.
Atienza provided livelihood programs and employment opportunities for the unemployed by reviving the city's economy. He launched training programs and vocational courses for the out of school youth and unemployed to provide them with a decent livelihood and a stable source of income. Atienza along with other non-government organizations have created affordable housing and land acquisition programs for the homeless, which benefited many of the city's poor residents and even the middle class.
The city's healthcare services and public hospitals were also enhanced during his administration.

Atienza was able to bring free medical services and medicines to far-flung areas and barangays.
Manila under Atienza's leadership has had the best peace and order situation in many years. In support of Manila's budding athletes and promising talents, Atienza promoted sports-culminating activities and free training and development programs to harness their skills and talents. In addition, Atienza also provided free access to education and school supplies to Manila's public school students. Manila's colleges and universities were also improved during his term, as part of fulfilling his promise of providing quality and affordable college education to Manilenos. Furthermore, many of the city's senior residents were also able to enjoy greater benefits under the former mayor's program for the senior citizens which included special services, big discounts and other freebies.
The former environment secretary also fought for the relocation of the oil depot in Pandacan which he believes is a serious environmental and safety threat. Manila was also provided with a major facelift as Atienza pushed forward for the beautification and enhancement of the city's old and deteriorating parks and other tourist attractions. One of the most remarkable projects of the former mayor is the improvement of the city's bay area commonly known as the "Baywalk", which has allowed city residents, as well as local and foreign tourists to enjoy alfresco dining and listening to fine music while watching the world-renowned Manila Bay sunset.
