MAYOR’S MESSAGE FOR THE ARAW NG BIÑAN

By Mayor Walfredo “Arman” Reyes Dimaguila Jr.

This year, as we celebrate Araw ng Biñan with the theme “Buhay ang Nakaraan, Sumasalubong sa Hinaharap,” we will highlight the historical milestones of this city: the 7th Cityhood Anniversary, the 72nd Liberation Day from the Japanese Imperial Forces, and the Foundation Day Commemoration. It will be celebrated in style with a wide array of cultural entertainments and presentations to enrich our knowledge more in the history of Biñan.

The American author Ernest Vincent Wright said: “A city is not an array of buildings, parks, and fountains. A city is a living thing. It is actually human, for it is a group of humanity growing up in daily contact.”

As we strive harder to give public the best, let us all look back on some of Biñan’s accomplishments since July 2016:

Purchase of garbage trucks to address the garbage collection problem in the city;

According to Jack Lew, who served as US Secretary of the Treasury and White House Chief of Staff under the Obama administration, “There’s no higher calling in terms of a career than public service, which is a chance to make a difference in people’s lives and improve the world.” We can still accomplish so much for Biñan.  A lot of programs are in placed because we are committed to make living in Biñan better, safer, and healthier.  The greatest good must necessarily come from the combined efforts of many in dedicated service to mankind.

Here in our city, there is a collaborative effort with the public as we share a common goal to succeed, because we believe that “Sa Lungsod ng Biñan, Mamamayan ay Maaasahan!”
