Arturo "Art" Acosta Borjal (April 15, 1938 – June 6, 2002) was a Filipino journalist, newspaper president and co-founder, legislator, and lawyer.
He had leg braces and crutches and went on to finish humanities and law studies at Ateneo de Manila University while tripling as editor-in-chief of The Guidon, president of the debating team and the Supreme Student Council.
[4] President Corazon Aquino appointed Borjal as a congressman for the disabled, one of its sectoral representatives in the 8th Congress.
Thus the petition of Borjal and Max Soliven was granted, and the Decision of the Court of Appeals of 25 March 1996 and its Resolution of 12 September 1996 denying reconsideration were reversed and set aside, and the complaint for damages against petitioners was dismissed.
[8] Philippine Permanent Representative to the United Nations Ambassador Alfonso Yuchengco described Borjal: "Art was not only a fine journalist, he was a humanitarian who used his popular column to give comfort to many people who needed help – the sick, the poor, the harassed and the oppressed."
