March 27, 2025 – The Local Government Unit of Tapaz officially concluded its Women’s Month 2025 celebration today with a culminating activity featuring a short program, “Juana’s Got Talent” competition, and a recognition ceremony honoring outstanding women, offices, and partners who have significantly contributed to gender and development initiatives.

Mayor Roberto “Nonong” Palomar, represented by EnP Stephen Faeldin, delivered an inspiring message emphasizing the vital role of women in governance and community development.

“Ang mga kababaihan ang backbone ng ating institusyon. Ang kanilang sipag, talino, at dedikasyon ang siyang nagpapatibay at nagpapatakbo ng ating lokal na pamahalaan. Sa pamamagitan ng pagkilala sa kanilang kontribusyon, patuloy nating pinalalakas ang kanilang papel sa ating lipunan.”

Also present at the event were Vice Mayor Romel Somo, along with Sangguniang Bayan Members Hon. Karen Palomar and Hon. Regina Fancubila, who expressed their support for gender equality and women’s empowerment programs in the municipality.

The LGU also extended its congratulations and gratitude to the Municipal Social Welfare and Development Office (MSWDO) led by Josie Cambel, the Gender and Development (GAD) Office under Engr. Neriza Pacenio, and the Human Resource Management Office (HRMO)/MGDH led by Cristita Giner, along with the Tapaz Municipal Government Employees Association (TMGEA) officers for their dedication in organizing and spearheading meaningful activities throughout Women’s Month.

The culminating activity served as a tribute to the strength, resilience, and leadership of Tapaznon women, reinforcing the LGU’s commitment to promoting gender equality and fostering a more inclusive and empowering society.

Mabuhay ang mga Juana! Mabuhay ang mga kababaihan ng Tapaz!
