Through our collaborative efforts, we have been able to sustain and expand the gains of our programs in good governance. The strong partnership between the executive and legislative branches of the city government, as evidenced by the executive issuances and legislative measures published in this Gazette, allows us to provide an enabling environment for our businesses to grow rapidly and robustly, as well as to implement innovative and responsive programs for the benefit of our marginalized constituency.
A firm testament to our victory is us being hailed by the National Competitiveness Council as the Third (3rd) Most Competitive City in the Philippines and the No. 1 local government unit in government efficiency. The pouring investments in the city due to our enhancing business climate and improving public infrastructure, among them the revitalized Bicol Central Station and modernized Naga City People’s Mall, are facts that speak of the advantages of unfaltering cooperation between the public and private sector.
Hence, as we bare the city government’s programs and policies in this Gazette, we further seek the support, cooperation and comments of the people. On the last pages of this journal, we have published the contact numbers of all the departments under the city government structure for the public’s perusal. Let us sustain the good teamwork that we have exhibited in these past years and, together, H²ELP our CiTy, our beloved Naga, smile to the World.
Burunyog kita sa pag-uswag kan satong Maogmang Lugar.
JOHN G. BONGAT City Mayor FROM THE VICE MAYOR
The commitment of the city government to uphold the highest degree of competency, integrity and accountability is as firm and steadfast as ever. This Gazette is a testament to that fact, as well as the enacted ordinances and resolutions contained herein.
To advance further the gains of our collective efforts, the present administration has institutionalized mechanisms for stronger partnership and linkages with the private sector. We have also given considerable attention to the needs of the marginalized. Programs purposely aimed at helping our underprivileged constituency is necessary to cascade down to the grass-root level the growth we have experienced in these past years.
As we empower those who need the government’s support, we have consistently called upon and tapped the abilities and help of those already empowered. This is especially evident in the Sangguniang Panlungsod Student Participation Program, particularly in its newly-added mechanism dubbed SP Engage. In this program, we solicit the views and opinions of the youth in matters affecting the present and, consequently, the future of our city. Students of colleges and universities are tapped to contribute their knowledge and innovative ideas in running the city’s affairs.
Consistent with our H²ELP your City agenda, the City Government of Naga shall continuously develop and institutionalize programs and policies that seek to enhance the quality of life of the Nagueňos and, at the same time, make them proactive stakeholders in Naga’s development. Through our collaborative efforts, Naga will smile to the world.

Bongat ordered the publication of the city’s official gazette which shall henceforth serve as the journal of the city goverment.
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.
Additionally, official reports, researches, paper presentations, including copies of privilege speeches and official communication and correspondence, as may be deemed urgent for the public to know, may also be given space. 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.
