PAGADIAN CITY, Sept. 22 (PIA) – Judges, entrepreneurs, and bankers who made significant contributions to the development of Zamboanga del Sur for the past year were cited recently in a simple but fitting ceremonies held at the Megayon Stage, Provincial Government Center, Dao, this city.

Institutionalized by the provincial government since 2010 to inspire individuals to seek greater heights and strive for success in the noble mission of propelling Zamboanga del Sur and its people towards economic growth and sustainable development, seven (7) individuals were recognized as Most Outstanding ZamboSurians 2015.

The awardees were: Regional Trial Court Judge Rolando L. Goan (Justice System); Retired City Prosecutor Reynaldo L. Goan (Justice System); Retired Judge Edilberto G. Absin (Justice Sytem); Leonila F. Tecson (Women Empowerment and Development); Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas Deputy Director Ernesto D. Dinglasa (Banking and Finance); Henry L. Tan (Entrepreneurship); and Clyton H.

The awardees were formally recognized by local government officials led by no less than the chief executive for their significant contributions in making Zamboanga del Sur a highly competitive and peaceful province.

Zamboanga del Sur Governor Antonio H. Cerilles in his message said the awardees will serve as role models in our society and worthy of emulation by the young generation, adding that they have contributed much for the betterment of the province.

“You are most honored and deserving to receive the kind of accolade that we bestowed on you because you have contributed a lot for the development of the province,” he explained.

“The award that you received is more prestigious because the province is admired, honored and respected by many people being adjudged recently as the 5th Most Competitive province in the country by the National Competitiveness Council (NCC),” Cerilles proudly announced.

“The NCC’s award to the province measures the local government unit’s quality of infrastructure, economic dynamism and government efficiency,” the good governor added.

He underscored the tradition of the provincial government to give awards to outstanding policemen, soldiers, teachers, farmers, businessmen/entrepreneurs and lawyers during its annual founding anniversary celebration.

Meanwhile, the chief executive attributed the success of the province to the political and institutional leaders who are united with one vision - to think whatever is best for the community.
