Arnulfo P. Fuentebella (born October 29, 1945) was the Speaker of the Philippine House of Representatives from 2000 to 2001. He is a former representative of the Third (now Fourth) District of Camarines Sur, more popularly known as the Partido District.
Arnulfo "Noli" Fuentebella was born in October 29, 1945 in Camarines Sur to former Representative and Governor Felix A. Fuentebella and Rita Palma. He was educated in his home province and spent most of his life in scouting until he reached Life Scout. At the age of 15, Fuentebella was a Philippine delegate to the 50th anniversary of the Boy Scouts of America in 1960. He is also a member of Alpha Phi Omega, a fraternity with deep roots in scouting. He studied law at the University of the Philippines in 1970 and graduated being the 7th in his class and passed the Bar Exams in 1971.
After he passed the Bar Exams, Fuentebella pursued a career in law and banking. But after President Ferdinand E. Marcos imposed martial rule and called for elections to the Interim Batasang Pambansa (IBP), Fuentebella was chosen by the President to run in Congress to represent Partido. He subsequently won the elections and served as an assemblyman in the IBP from 1978 to 1984. However, he lost his bid for a seat in the 1984 Regular Batasang Pambansa and used the hiatus to practice law in New York, where he was admitted to the State Bar. Then the EDSA Revolution happened and President Marcos fled into exile. As the Fuentebellas had been identified with the Marcoses, hropted to sit out the Cory Aquino years.
In 1992, political allies asked Fuentebella to run again in Congress. He won three consecutive terms as Congressman (1992-2001).
