Province reaffirms support to Arroyo administration, calls
for enlightenment of “dark forces”
Affirmation
of support and enlightenment.
These
were the two messages which the officials of the Province
of Mountain Province wanted to convey, the first to Pres.
Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo, and the latter to the so-called “dark
forces working against the administration.
In
a statement issued by Gov. Maximo B. Dalog, in behalf of the
officials and people of the province, he said that it is their
common position that Pres. Arroyo and her administration must
get the firm support of the entire country because she us
capably administering the affairs of the government.
“The
good governance is manifested in the robust economy and the
development programs’ efforts now being experienced
by our country.
Dalog,
who is also chairman of the Regional Development Council for
the Cordillera Administrative Region, pointed out that there
has never been a president before Arroyo who has been as supportive
to the province and the region.
He
pointed out that under Pres. Arroyo’s watch, almost
P3 billion has been poured into the region for the improvement
and concreting of its major road networks such as the Halsema
Road, the Bontoc-Banaue road, the Bontoc-Kalinga road and
the Ilocos Sur-Sabangan Road.
He
said that the completion of these major infrastructure projects
would impact on the province’s and the region’s
tourism arrivals, creating economic activities for the people
there, and consequently, graduating Mt. Province from the
list of the poorest provinces.
On
the other hand, the people of Mt. Province called on the “dark
forces” working against the administration to finally
realize that now, more than ever, the unity, solidarity, and
concerted efforts of the officialdom and the entire citizenry
is needed for the country to progress. (Angelica Sanchez)
