DILG-9 bares LTIA winners

By Franklin P. Gumapon

PAGADIAN CITY – The Regional Awards Committee (RAC) for the Lupong Tagapamayapa Incentive Awards (LTIA) has recently proclaimed the winning barangays for the three categories representing the highly urbanized city, component city and 1st to 3rd class municipalities in the region.

 DILG-9 Regional Information Officer Lemuel Mejares disclosed that after evaluating the nominees for best performing lupong tagapamayapa (barangay justice), Barangay Pasonance of Zamboanga City emerged as regional winner for highly-urbanized city category while Barangay Olingan of Dipolog City and Barangay Poblacion of Manukan, Zamboanga del Norte were also proclaimed regional winners for component city and 1st to 3rd class municipality categories, respectively.

 There was no nominee for 4th to 6th class municipality category.

 It was also learned that the RAC had only received one nominee each for highly-urbanized city and 1st to 3rd class municipality categories.

 Dipolog City’s Barangay Olingan, on the other hand, wrested the award over Barangay Tuburan of Pagadian City in the component city category.
These regional winners will vie for the national LTI awards before the National Awards Committee (NAC).

DILG-9 Regional Director Paisal Abutazil served as RAC chair with the regional state prosecutor as vice chair, and the Regional Trial Court (RTC) Executive Judge, a representative from the Regional Peace and Order Council (RPOC), president of the Liga ng mga Barangay (LnB) regional chapter and two representatives from region-based non-government organizations as members.

The nominees were judged according to these criteria: efficiency in operations, effectiveness in carrying out “Katarungang Pambarangay” objectives, and creativity and resourcefulness of the “Lupong Tagapamayapa.”


DILG Memorandum Circular 2008-102 dated June 17, 2008 mandated its regional offices to provide technical support and serve as secretariat to the RAC in the selection and submission to the national committee the best performing “lupons” in the region. (FPG/LM/PIA9)
