"GOOD GOVERNANCE MATTERS"
Award-winning mayor and good governance advocate shares his and his city's success story in the November 9 LNP

Naga City mayor and Ramon Magsaysay awardee Jesse M. Robredo offered his take on "Politics, Good Governance and Leadership" in a well-attended Learning and Nurturing Program (LNP) event held last November 9, 2007 at the SEAMEO Innotech in Quezon City. The special LNP was conducted as part of the 34 th anniversary celebrations of the Career Executive Service this November.

Mayor Robredo, who is serving Naga for an unprecedented fifth term, expounded on good governance and leadership principles that guided his day-to-day management of what is dubbed as the 'premier city' of the Bicol region. Robredo also shared practical advice to his fellow government workers on how to successfully maneuver the terrain of politics. He credits, among others, the professionalism and stability of Naga's local bureaucracy as a major factor in its success story. He encourages his fellow public managers to similarly invest in the development of their organization's own human resource.

Mayor Robredo was elected in 1988 -- the youngest ever in the Philippines at age 29. Under his leadership, Naga emerged as a model local government and a laboratory of governance innovations, earning recognition from 150 different local, regional and international awards in different areas of local governance. Robredo himself has been honored with 21 major individual awards including the 2000 Ramon Magsaysay Award for Government Service.

CESB Executive Director Tonette Allones, a provincemate of Robredo, introduced the mayor by sharing her own personal anecdote about the guest speaker. She also announced for the first time the winners of the Search for Outstanding CEO, all of whom graced the event. CESB Director III Bles Lodevico moderated the lively open forum.

The LNP is regularly conducted by the CESB to deepen awareness on contemporary governance and development issues among CES officers and eligibles. Another special anniversary LNP on "The Challenges of Being a CESO in Modern Times" is scheduled in Davao City on November 29 featuring DBP Chairperson and former CESB Chair Patricia Sto. Tomas.

For details on the upcoming LNP , please call our Anniversary Query Center at (02) 951-4981 to 88 locals 110, 108 and 127. Admission is free of charge.
