2 LGUs benchmark Tagum’s best practices

TAGUM CITY, February 9, 2015 - Two local government units from Luzon visited the city last week and its officials saw for themselves the best local government practices implemented by the City Government of Tagum.

The group from the Municipality of Gerona, Tarlac benchmarked the city’s economic enterprises, specifically how the local government was able to rehabilitate the city’s public cemetery in Barangay La Filipina.

The group was composed of the Sangguniang Bayan members and bigwigs from their Municipal Planning and Development Office and Municipal Engineering Office, respectively.

The group was welcomed by City Councilors Francisco Remitar and Oscar Bermudez, City Engineer Roosevelt Corporal, City Economic and Enterprise head Ms. Grace Terante, City Health Officer Arnel Florendo and SP Secretary Rey Buhion at the Sanguniang Panlungsod building.

"It's a good thing that chose us to benchmark for the rehabilitation of their public cemetery. This only manifests that we have done something good in the rehabilitation of our cemetery that other LGUs can also replicate,” Terante said.

On the other hand, another set of visitors from LGU Daraga, Albay was also here to benchmark the city’s Night Market Program, which was dubbed by the Philippine Daily Inquirer as the city’s longest dining hall and was recognized with a Galing Pook Award last year.
