PGIS, HALL OF FAME OF POVERTY REDUCTION PROGRAM IN REGION 1!

NOT ONCE, not twice but three times!!! The Provincial Government of Ilocos Sur did it again for the third straight year. The PGIS was awarded best LGU-Poverty Reduction Program Implementer for 2014 by the Regional Development Council Region 1.

The award is given to an LGU that had displayed exemplary performance in reducing poverty in their areas of concern. “If we work together, we can accomplish a lot. Let us inspire each other and believe in ourselves that we can eradicate poverty.” Gov. Ryan Luis V. Singson said. PGIS wowed the RDC 1 search committee again with the sustained implementation of programs such as Agricultural Poverty Enhancement, Quality-Affordable-Accessible Health Care, Adequate and High Quality Education, Assistance to Senior Citizens, Environmental Management, Tourism Development, Electrification Program, Barang-ay Demo Farm, Ilocos Sur Hotline, Search for Siglat Eskuela and Siglat Barangay, Kapitol Outreach, Livelihood Programs, Upgrading of PDRRMC Equipments, Handog-Titulo Programs, Social and Economic Infrastructure Projects. “I congratulate the whole Provincial Government of Ilocos Sur for their latest success.
