Ang resolusyon nga gipalabang sa konseho alang sa nasangpit nga katuyuan gipaluyohan sa Komite sa Barangay Affairs ni Konsehal Yan Lam Lim ug Komite sa Pamalaod ni Konsehal Edgar Cabanlas.

Through two separate ordinances, the 20th City Council led by Vice Mayor Bebot Rodriguez approved the application of Mr. Edison N. Aring of Canitoan-Pagatpat Cockers Association and Mr. Victor Cabeltes of Indahag Square Garden for a special permit to hold a 3-stag derby on November 20 and 22, respectively.


 

Both applications underwent the scrutiny of the Committee on Games and Amusement chaired by Councilor Roger Abaday and were found to have complied with and adhered to all relevant guidelines and regulations set forth by the city ordinance.

 

In their letter to Abaday, the event organizers emphasized that events such as cockfight not only contribute to the local economy but also attract visitors and tourists alike thereby promoting tourism.

 

It also enlivens the well-loved Filipino heritage sport, they added.

 

According to Abaday, the City Council will always back such activity for as long as health protocols are followed, and that the organizers coordinate with local law enforcement to ensure safety and security of all attendees.


           

The 20th City Council through Resolution No. 15109-2024 has commended the barangay mediation committee (Lupong Tagapamayapa) of Balulang, headed by Punong Barangay Edwin Micabani, for winning 1st runner-up in the 2024 National Lupong Tagapamayapa Incentives Award (LTIA) held on November 7, 2023 at the Manila Hotel, Metro Manila.


 

Councilor Christian Rustico Achas, in a special report during the 102nd regular session, said that the recognition given by the Department of Interior and Local Government (DILG) to Barangay Balulang is a huge feat, citing that it requires time, patience, and ideas to clinch such a prestigious award.




 

During the session, Vice Mayor Bebot Rodriguez asked Punong Barangay Micabani to address the City Council to share his initiatives in winning the award so as to encourage other barangay lupons to replicate.

 

Micabani said that only 3 out of the 80 barangays will proceed to the regional level after having gone through the evaluation done by the city.

 

In the regional evaluation, a candidate for the award is not only asked to submit documents but will also be interviewed by a panel of evaluators, he added.

 

Once the regional winner is determined, the winning lupon will be endorsed to compete in  the national level with 42,000 other barangays nationwide, he concluded.

 

Under the highly urbanized city category, Barangay Budlaan in Cebu claimed the top prize, Barangay Tibungco, Davao placed third.

 

The Lupong Tagapamayapa Incentives Awards was established in 1997 as a means to institutionalize a system of granting economic benefits and other incentives to the Lupong Tagapamayapa that demonstrates efficiency of operations, effectiveness in securing the katarungang pambarangay objectives, and creativity and resourcefulness of mediators in settling disputes at the grassroots level.
