The Department of the Interior and Local Government of Zambales (DILG Zambales) headed by Dir. Armi V. Bactad, CESO V— provincial validation team chairperson, led the conduct of the Provincial Validation for the 2021 Pilot Testing of the Seal of Good Local Governance for Barangay (SGLGB) reviewing the entries of the thirteen pilot barangays from the municipalities of Zambales on November 16, 2021 via Zoom Meeting Platform. The activity aims to further assess, garner ideas and devise mechanisms in enhancing the SGLGB implementation.
PD Bactad, in her message, emphasized that the significance of the pilot testing is to provide inspiration and encouragement to all barangays. “We hope that with this pilot testing, ay mabigyan natin ng inspiration at encouragement ang ating mga barangays to exhibit their high level of performance in barangay governance. This is not a competition among the barangays, but rather a competition among themselves, para ipakita [kung] gaano kaganda ang lebel ng pag-gogobyerno, especially, mula sa ating itinuturing na first line of defense – ang mga barangays,” PD Bactad said.
The provincial validation team composed of the following members assessed and evaluated the documents submitted by the 13 barangays: LnB Provincial Chapter President Hon. Raedag A. Villamin, Jr., Provincial Planning and Development Office Representative Ms. Racquel Tacdoy and Civil Society Organization (CSO) Representative Rev. Rosalio I. Mendoza, Jr. Also present to provide technical assistance were DILG Zambales personnel: Cluster Team Leader Judith B. Romero, LGOOs VI Shieralyn B. Esteban, Nedricks P. Canlas, and Jonnel B. Edillor, and LGOOs II Rose Ann D. Agostosa, Paulin Johanne L. Reyes and Aljon S. Bautista.
