City Government of Tagbilaran

The City Government of Tagbilaran celebrated the Children’s Month in style last October. The momentous event was graced by the First Lady of Tagbilaran herself, Dra. Sharleen Lim. She shared her heart towards the needs of the special children. She emphasized the fact that educating them need not be expensive. We really just have to reach them out and exert effort to understand their needs which are kind of different to that of a normal child.

Tagbilaran City celebrated its 45th Charter Day last July 1, 2011. The commemoration was signaled off by the ringing of bells and sirens at four in the morning, followed by the Run for Mabaw at 4:30.

Also, the proceeds of the run will be used to supply some of the logistics for the on-going conservation program. Then a Holy Mass officiated by Msgr. Jeffrey Malanog soon followed.

Selected City Hall employees underwent Technology of Participation training AT JJ’s Seafood Village a week ago.

The Mabaw Reef Conservation Program is a project of the City Government which is dedicated to sustain the Mabaw’s marine resources and productivity. At present, Mabaw’s Reef coral cover is within good to excellent condition.

To advance this pursuit, we will be launching an awareness campaign dubbed as “RUN FOR MABAW REEF” on July 1, 2011 as part of the 45th Charter Day Celebration of Tagbilaran City.
