'''Bulacan ranks 10th most competitive province'''.<br>
'''Another shipment of smuggled cigarettes seized in Zamboanga'''.<br>
CITY OF MALOLOS, Bulacan – Bulacan was ranked 10th among the country's most competitive provinces by the Department of Trade and Industry (DTI) in the Cities and Municipalities Competitiveness Index (CMCI). Governor Daniel Fernando, in a statement on Friday, said this is the third consecutive year for the province to receive such recognition. Bulacan placed eighth in 2020 and ninth in 2019, showing a huge improvement for the province that ranked 49th in 2018, 48th in 2016, and 44th in 2015. Fernando, however, expressed the belief that more than the recognition, the improvement of the provincial government’s competitiveness could be measured by the satisfaction the Bulakenyos received from his administration’s programs, plans, and projects.
