Lubao, Pampanga -- In a bid to bring government services closer to the people, the Municipal Government here conducted its first "Barangay Day" in San Roque Dau I on Tuesday, August 22. Mayor Mylyn Pineda-Cayabyab led municipal officials and employees in providing services to residents of the barangay.
Medical and dental services, as well as employment,
engineering and civil registration assistance were farmed out to residents.
Municipal health officers provided free medical consultations and medicines for
hypertension and diabetes. The municipal dental bus was also on standby for
oral health consultations.
Cayabyab also received various requests and answered queries
relevant to the services that the local government unit (LGU) is providing its
constituency.
Those seeking employment were also registered to be referred
to companies thru the public employment services office.
Since "bird flu" remains the hottest issue in the
province, Municipal Agricultural Officer Maria David shared information about
the disease to dispel public fear about the disease.
Planting of malunggay and papaya will also be part of the
next barangay visit to promote backyard farming among the constituency.
This was the first of a weekly barangay visitations that the
LGU will conduct until the first quarter of 2018. Cayabyab hopes to conduct the
same activity in at least one barangay per week.
She said all requests for projects and other services shall
be consolidated and included in the next budget deliberation of either the LGU
or national agencies concerned. (SunStar Pampanga)
