Raymundo Angulo Melliza (March 15, 1854 – November 11, 1945)[1] was a Filipino lawyer and politician who served as the second governor of Iloilo during the American occupation of the Philippines and was also an unsuccessful candidate for Vice President in the 1935 elections as a running-mate of former President Emilio Aguinaldo.
Prior to the Philippine Revolution, he worked as a judge in Bulacan and Ilocos Norte and was even appointed by the Spanish colonial government in Cuba to serve as secretary of the Real Audiencia de La Habana, the highest court in the island, in 1897, although it is uncertain whether he took up the post as he was replaced after just a few months.
[1] During the Philippine Revolution, he participated in the Comité Conspirador, which overthrew the Spanish regime in Iloilo in 1898, and became president of the Estado Federal de Visayas, a short-lived revolutionary government in Panay from 1898 to 1899.
[1] Reaching the rank of general himself, he helped support the installment of Martin Delgado as head of all revolutionary forces in the Visayas.
Recent studies however, have cast doubt on the claim, citing numerous discrepancies and factual inaccuracies.
