MARAWI CITY, Lanao del Sur (PIA)--The provincial government of Lanao del Sur is ramping up good governance and public service of barangay local government units (BLGUs) through the Building Opportunities for a Meaningful Bangsamoro Inclusive Town (BOMBIT) Program.
The program scouts for functional barangays in the province that will serve as models of good governance and exemplary public service.
"Itinatag natin ang BOMBIT program noong 2019 kung saan anim na pilot barangays ang nabigyan ng infrastructure projects. Sa ilakawang pagkakataon, inlunsad natin itong programa kabilang sa First 100 Days Priority ng ating administrasyon upang kilalanin at parangalan ang kagalingan at kahusayan ng sampung katangi-tanging barangay na ginagampanan ang kanilang mga responsibilidad ng buong husay at katapatan," said Governor Mamintal Alonto Adiong Jr. during the awarding ceremony for 10 BOMBIT barangays Friday, December 16.
[We established the BOMBIT program in 2019 where six pilot barangays were given infrastructure projects. For the second time, we have launched this program as part of the First 100 Days Priority of our administration to recognize and honor the excellence of ten outstanding barangays who carry out their responsibilities well and with honesty.]
He said the program also empowers and recognizes the vital role of barangays which is the basic unit of government in the delivery of government services.
Adiong said the top 10 barangays were selected based on the presence of working elected and appointed barangay officials, the presence of government centers and facilities, the availability of mandated plans, good governance, environmental protection and sanitation efforts, economic activities, and financial management.
"Bagama't sampu lang ang hihirangin natin ako ay umaasa na magsilbing inspirasyon ito sa lahat ng barangays upang itaas nila ang antas ng pamumuno at paglilingkod," he said.
[Although we will only award ten, I hope that this will serve as an inspiration to all barangays to raise their level of leadership and service.]
The winners received plaques of recognition, P20,000 cash prize, and support for a priority infrastructure project needed by the barangay. (APB/PIA-10/Lanao del Sur)
