ANGELES CITY – An advocate of Kapampangan arts and culture has expressed support to a city ordinance involving non-government organizations on local governance.
Robby Tantigco, executive director of the Holy Angel University (HAU) Center for Kapampangan Studies, supports City Ordinance No. 295, otherwise known as “The Empowerment Ordinance of Angeles City.”

The ordinance is aimed at leading a partnership between the local government and the various non-government and people’s organizations in the city.
The said ordinance has garnered positive praise for its objective to guarantee an effective and proper forum for the people of Angeles to participate in local governance.
One of the important provisions of the ordinance is stipulated in Section 19, which tackles “Educational Programs on Empowerment and Sustainable Development.”
Tantingco cited the said section of the ordinance, which stated that “the City Government and the People’s Council shall jointly create and provide for the composition of a City Council for Kapampangan Culture and Arts.”
As an advocate of the Kapampangan culture, Tantingco said that this is a welcome legislative measure coming from the City Government.
“It is unusual for a local government to provide support for its mother language. This will truly be a boost to the advocacy of promoting Kapampangan arts and culture in the city and in the province as well,” Tantingco said.
He added that every single effort is welcome to support our local arts and culture and more importantly the Kapampangan language.
“We all have the same aim to promote this, and it’s good to see that all of us work towards a common goal.” Tantingco said.
The Empowerment Ordinance was sponsored by Councilors Maricel Morales and Bryan Matthew Nepomuceno and seconded by Councilors Alfie Bonifacio and Alex Indiongco.
