In the past years, Naga’s economy has been bullish. New investments are coming in. New windows of opportunities are opening. In spite of this good news, however, ensuring the city’s growth is translated in uplifting every Nagueños quality of life is our primary concern.

Our efforts for a transparent and accountable government are our means to ensure a sustainable, inclusive, and people-centered development. By disclosing all executive issuances and legislative measures of the city government in this Naga City Gazette, the city government seeks not only to inform you, our beloved Nagueños, of our actions, but more importantly to invite you to engage with us.

On the last pages of this journal, the contact numbers of all the departments under the city government structure are published fir your perusal. Your city government is just a call away. Avail the privileges contained in our city ordinances, participate in our programs, or comment and give us feedback on how to further improve government systems and mechanisms.

Let us all H²ELP our CiTy become a happy and beautiful place to live in. Let us make Naga Smile to the World.

JOHN G. BONGAT City Mayor FROM THE VICE MAYOR

Empowered, responsible and productive citizens are the foundations of a progressive city. It is in this view that the City Government of Naga has been incessantly exploring means to engage the people, enhance their proficiencies and, consequently, uplift their quality of life.

The executive issuances and legislative measures contained in this Gazette seek to equip our people with the necessary competencies and means for meaningful participation. In particular, Ordinance No. 2015-012, otherwise known as the Education Code of Naga City, provides comprehensive programs in developing our city’s most important resource – the Nagueňos. From pre-school to tertiary, even for out-of-school, there are interventions aimed at improving the quality of education in Naga, as well as its accessibility, especially for the marginalized.

Good governance is not only a function of an open, transparent government, but more so of a participative, proactive citizenry. Education is a key in opening up opportunities, as well as a tool for empowering every single Nagueňo as development partners.

Edukasyon an solusyon. Through breakthrough recommendations and sustained involvement of the private sector in the city’s governance, we will be assured of continuous innovation in the city’s systems and processes. By making the best better for our Maogmang Lugar, we can reach new heights that are at par, or even beyond, other global cities. Naga will surely smile to the world.

As such, the Naga City Official Gazette will publish (1) all important LEGISLATIVE acts and resolutions of the Sangguniang Panlungsod which are public in nature; (2) all executive and administrative orders and proclamations, except those having no general applicability; (3) such documents or classes of documents as may be required so to published by law; and (4) such documents or classes of documents as the City Mayor of the Sanggunian shall determine from time to time to have general applicability and legal effect, or which they may authorize so to published.

The furtherance of transparency, accountability and unrestrained public debate and discussion as hallmarks of good governance and true democracy will be the primary goal of this publication.

“Gazette” comes from the word gazetta, a Venetian coin used to buy early Italian newspapers. The word later on was loaned into English to describe a newspaper.

In came to be used for an official goverment paper with the creation of the London Gazette, first published in 1665 under the title of The Oxford Gazette.

In the Philippines, the Official Gazette first appeared on August 23, 1898, ten days after the Battle of Manila when the Spanish surrendered to the Americans. Since then, it became an American era periodical. Today, the Gazette is traditionally referred to as the official organ of the Philippine government.

Naga City, for its part, is once more breaking through a new era where new city administration promises to make good governance even better.
