he Magsingal Municipal Hall in my mind

A local government is identified and recognized through its seat of government, the provincial/city/municipal or barangay hall.  This is the primary landmark of every local government, anybody visiting a town or city would always ask or look for its seat of government.  Its physical structure manifests the kind of government working within and it best speaks of the qualities of local leaders manning the day to day affairs of the government.  This is primarily because this is where government functions and responsibilities are initially exercised.  This is where the development course of an LGU is decided upon and determined.  This is why, the first time I assumed office as Mayor of Magsingal, it has always been my dream to rebuild and refurbish the old municipal building constructed in 1676.  That dream has been very elusive, for seeing its fulfillment means setting aside a huge sum of money.  And my administration cannot sacrifice other services, social services especially, just to realize my dream.  Almost 9 years after, I am delighted to share with every resident of Magsingal here and abroad that my dream is about to realized.  The reconstruction and completion of the old municipal building highlights the many programs and projects my administration has implemented the past 8 years.  This is also my gift to my beloved townmates, a gesture to show my appreciation for your support and confidence in my administration.  Better local government services are assured as local government personnel are given suitable working environment, ensuring residents’ satisfaction for every government service required and availed of.

This is my legacy.
