KORONADAL CITY, Feb. 1 (PIA) -- Chona Mantilla, labor attaché to Rome, today begins her new assignment at the Department of Labor and Employment in Soccsksargen Region (DOLE-12). | |||
Mantilla takes the place of Atty. Ma. Gloria Tango, who is re-assigned as regional director of DOLE in Central Visayas in accordance to the order of Labor and Employment Secretary Rosalinda Baldoz for the department-wide reshuffling of regional directors and assistant regional directors to strengthen the delivery of services and to maintain transparency in all DOLE offices. | |||
Assistant Regional Director Joel Gonzales is also transferred as ARD Caraga Region (Region 13). In his lieu, former Zamboanga Peninsula ARD Yahya Centi now serves as ARD of DOLE-12. | |||
Mantilla, a graduate of AB Journalism and Bachelor of Laws from Silliman University and Master of Social Sciences from the University of Tasmania in Australia, was labor attaché to Rome from 2009 to 2011. | |||
She was regional director of DOLE in Caraga Region from 2005 until 2009. | |||
During the turn-over ceremony on Monday, Mantilla said, she is ready to immediately begin with her new assignment. | |||
“I am very fortunate because I am ushered into a regional office with veteran leaders like RD Tango and ARD Jong (Gonzales),” she said. | |||
One of her most immediate activities, she added, is to look into the work and financial plan prepared by the regional staff under the leadership of Director Tango. | |||
“We will try to continue what has been done before and with the help of the regional staff, as well as our partners in the agency, our private partners and the media we will be able to work out more development for the region,” she said. | |||
She assured that she will continue the agency’s focus on employment facilitation, labor relations, and welfare of the labor force. | |||
“I would also like to strengthen relationship with local government units as well as our private partners,” she said. | |||
Immediately after the turn-over ceremony, Mantilla scheduled a meeting with the Regional Coordinating Council, provincial heads and division chiefs to validate plans and programs. | |||
She said she will also meet with local officials in Soccsksargen Region, which covers the provinces of Sarangani, South Cotabato, Sultan Kudarat, and North Cotabato and the cities of Cotabato, Kidapawan, Tacurong, Koronadal, and General Santos. | |||
Regarding her predecessor, she said, Atty. Tango has been her role model. “An institution,” she described. | |||
“Mahirap pantayan ang previous leadership, talagang crème dela crème,” she said. | |||
In her stay as chief of DOLE 12, Tango was credited for leading in the promotion of industrial peace in the region as evidenced by zero strike in her entire five-year stint here. It was also during her leadership that DOLE 12 achieved ISO 9001-2008 certification for its quality management system. | |||
Mantilla is confident that her administration will succeed with the help of the regional team and the network of partners. | |||
“Let us help one another,” she asked the participants of the turn-over ceremony. | |||
Meanwhile, Carlito Uy, vice chairman for management of the Regional Tripartite Industrial Peace Council said Director Mantilla can expect full support from their group. | |||
“We are ready for whatever program that she will introduce in line with labor and management relationship,” he said “especially in the promotion of industrial peace.” | |||
“I am sure, given her experience as regional director of Caraga and as labor attaché, she knows what would be best for both labor and management,” Uy added. (DEDoguiles/PIA 12) | |||
