foreigners see when they come to our country, so I’m pleased that in the first weeks of his administration, Mayor Isko has already shown that the challenges of the city are not insurmountable and can be addressed with political will and commitment,”He cited Moreno’s clean-up of Divisoria and other major streets, waste-management program, clearing of water-ways and anti-gambling program as some of the city government’s most important initiatives.
“The City Government’s cooperation in the Manila Bay Rehabilitation Program is crucial because some of the most heavily polluted waterways are in the City of Manila so we look forward to working with him closely in order to return Manila Bay to its pristine beauty as directed by President Duterte,” he added.
He also reminded the newly elected young and dynamic local leaders that they are the face of change in the political landscape. He again reminded them to attend the 2019 Newly Elected Officials program for LGUs , which starts on Monday for provincial governors with separate schedules for mayors and councilors. “We will help them craft their first 100 days agenda or refine their executive agenda and align these with national programs,” he said.
