Congratulations LGU-Kapalong for being adjudged as the Most Business Friendly LGU 2022.
In line with the 48th Philippine Business Conference, with the theme: "The Philippine is ready and open for business," the Philippine Chamber of Commerce and Industry (PCCI) declared Municipality of Kapalong as the winner for the Most Business Friendly-LGU Awards-Municipal Level I. The awards for this year aims to showcase LGUs success stories and best practices in continuing, expanding, and starting new local business operations in collaboration with the private sector.
The PCCI, the country's largest business organization and the sector's representative, awards local government units (LGUs) for their outstanding efforts in implementing good governance reforms to encourage trade and investments, transparency, accountability, and efficiency in providing business services, in order to foster inclusive and sustainable growth and help accelerate local economic development.
One of the most important criteria for the most coveted awards is how LGUs accelerate sustainable economic development through initiatives to make doing business easier, as well as the most successful and effective collaborations between the LGU and the private sector to promote inclusive growth.
Mayor Maria Theresa R. Timbol personally attended the said awarding together with the Technical Working Group at the Manila Hotel, Metro Manila. The event was graced by no less His Excellency President Ferdinand Romualdes Marcos, as the keynote speaker.
