Davao Sur's top honchos benchmark Tagum's best govt practices


CITY OF TAGUM, DAVAO DEL NORTE - Stressing that this city's best government practices are indeed worth emulating, Davao del Sur Governor Douglas Ra. Cagas led a 37-man delegation in a one-day visit last September 25, 2012 anchored on the mission to take a glimpse of the programs and projects of the local government initiated by Mayor Rey T. Uy.

Uy personally shared his administration's achievements which Governor Cagas aptly described as the driving force that sets the bar of excellence in local governance.

Cagas, including some city councilors and barangay captains from Digos City, visited the Tagum City Engineering Services headquarters where the fabrication of the chairs are made at the Tagum City Motorpool, the renowned La Filipina Public Cemetery, the Tagum Public Market, the Energy Park, where the city nursery is located and ended at the City’s iconic New City Hall with no less than Mayor Uy playing as a tour guide.

Cagas said he was amazed and impressed by how far Tagum has achieved in its young age as a city.

In an interview with the Tagum City Information Office, the governor was very vocal in his intention to run as City Mayor of Digos in the 2013 election.

His one-day visit, he said, serves as a benchmarking activity to replicate Tagum's best practices once he will get the people's nod to lead his province's capital city.          

“Our vision is to make Digos at least equal to our pride Tagum City,” the governor concluded. (Louie Lapat of CIO Tagum)
