Come 2017, Tagum City is set to reach greater heights as the city government convened the members of various sectors and stakeholders for a 4-night series of appreciation, forum, fellowship and thanksgiving in its bid to strengthen partnerships with key community collaborators in the city.
Thousands of Tagumenyos gathered last December 13 until 16, 2016 at the New City Hall Atrium to participate in the strings of discussions and year-end celebrations slated by the city government. Among the participants are public security and safety providers, force multipliers, barangay governance service providers, members of the youth and the informal sectors, educators and literacy workers.
In his speech, Mayor Allan Rellon underscored that the citizens’ participation in the government’s works and programs is a critical factor regarded by the LGU in sustaining inclusive growth in the city.
He also acknowledged the contribution furnished by these local sectors in the series of success Tagum City has attained within this year.
It can be remembered that Tagum City received the country’s attention for many times after winning several national accolades including those that highlight business-friendliness, tourism, and efficient delivery of public services and for its successful hosting of huge events.
Given this triumph, Mayor Rellon urged these sectors for their continued alliance to the government in order to make 2017 more thriving thereby ushering every Tagumenyo toward better lives. (Roy Banias/CIO Tagum)
