Meanwhile, Atty. Rochelle D. Mahinay-Sero, CESE, Regional Director, congratulated all the awardees and further stated the power of good governance as a tool for transformation.

"Good governance is not just a phrase; it is a powerful tool for transformation. It ensures that our communities are not merely administered but are nurtured, empowered, and uplifted," Director Mahinay-Sero said.

She further urged everyone to be guided by the following Pillars of Good Governance: transparency, accountability, rule of law, participation, equity and inclusiveness, efficiency and effectiveness, and integrity for nurtured, empowered, and uplifted communities.

The Pasidungog sa Dose is an annual event as part of the celebration of the Local Government Month held every October. This year's theme, "Local Governance Breakthroughs", celebrates the 33 years of the Local Government Code since its enactment in 1991.
