AS A GESTURE of sympathy and support to the millions of victims of super typhoon “Yolanda”, the provincial government of Tarlac will forgo its traditional Christmas Party scheduled this holiday season.

   The capitol, has announced, in a department head meeting on November 20, that it would cancel its Christmas party and instead donate the entire annual festivity budget to the typhoon victims.

   In 2011, the Department of the Interior and Local Government granted the Municipality of San Manuel, Tarlac with the Performance Challenge Fund.  This is due to the municipality’s conferment of the Seal of Good Housekeeping (SGH), a program which recognizes LGUs efforts in advancing the principles of accountability and transparency in local governance.
