This is maybe week-late news but still, I am happy to share on this blog that my home city, Iloilo, has gained a batch of awards, in particular, the most improved Highly Urbanized City in the recent Cities and Municipalities Competitive Index Rankings for 2022.

Rankings of Cities and Municipalities are based on the sum of their scores on 5 Pillars: Economic Dynamism, Government Efficiency, Infrastructure, Resiliency, and Innovation. This was then our Standard basis for the city’s goals and objectives during our ISA workshop held last October 19 to 21, 2022 at The District 21 Hotel, Iloilo City.

A summary of the awards garnered by Iloilo City is as follows:

2022 Most Improved Highly Urbanized City
1st Place in Government Efficiency HUC Category
3rd Place in Resiliency HUC Category
7th Place in Infrastructure HUC Category
Top 7 Overall in CMCI Rankings

Congratulations Iloilo City, the Iloilo City LGU, and of course the City Mayor for the efforts in leading and inspiring both the citizenry and government offices in achieving this status in the CMCI Rankings for 2022. Me being part of the employee workforce of the city is an outlook to improve not only in my roles in the office but also become a more efficient, intelligent, and welcoming Ilonggo. You can check the rest of the details of the CMCI 2022 rankings here.

“Padayon sa pag-uswag, Iloilo City.”
