DILG Tarlac, under the guidance of Provincial Director Armi V. Bactad, actively participated in the national simultaneous clean-up drive on January 6, 2023. This engagement marked the launch of the KALINISAN sa Bagong Pilipinas Program (Kalinga sa Inisyatiba para sa Malinis na Bayan) of President Ferdinand R. Marcos, Jr.
The event witnessed the involvement of DILG Tarlac’s City/Municipal Local Government Operations Officers, who coordinated with all the barangays under their jurisdiction that simultaneously conducted the clean-up. Additionally, DILG Tarlac’s Provincial Office Personnel actively participated in the clean-up activities within their respective barangays.
Conducted concurrently with the Annual Development Day celebration, the KALINISAN Program signifies a dedicated effort toward environmental stewardship. The program mobilizes volunteers to proactively address cleanliness issues, fostering a collective commitment to environmental mindfulness. As TALAs of Tarlac, we encourage everyone to be mindful of our environment - to always sustain cleanliness and promote stewardship for the next generations to also enjoy.
