From October 15-17, 2024, national validators conducted the SubayBayan Awards validation process in Region XII, visiting the Municipality of Magpet in Cotabato and the Municipality of Kiamba in Sarangani, both competing under the Municipality Category, as well as the City of Koronadal in South Cotabato, representing the City Category. This validation was essential for assessing the performance of these local government units (LGUs) in key areas critical to effective project implementation and management.

The Department of the Interior and Local Government (DILG) Region XII, through its Project Development and Management Unit (PDMU), participated in the turnover ceremony of vital infrastructure projects funded under the FY 2022 Local Government Support Fund - Support to Barangay Development Program (LGSF-SBDP) in Brgy. Lamfugon, Lake Sebu, South Cotabato on October 9, 2024.

Among the completed projects were the Health Station worth ₱1.5 million, and Level II Potable Water System worth ₱2.5 million. These facilities are expected to significantly improve access to healthcare services and clean water, addressing two critical needs in the community.
