Regional Director’s Message We offer you the testament of our unwavering commitment in helping the government improve the living standards of the Filipinos nationwide, the DILG XII Performance Challenge Fund Compendium covering the 2011-2017 projects. It features the best success stories and highlights how the projects brought significant changes in the lives of the people in SOCCSKSARGEN Region especially to those who are living in the far-flung areas. I am proud to say that PCF is a result of our LGUs’ good local governance performance as recognized through the conferment of the SGLG Award which is a requisite in the granting of fund. For many years the Department and the local government units continuously work hand in hand towards the attainment of Excellence in Local Governance, thereby reaping the gains. May the stories highlighted in this material inspire communities and will motivate other LGUs to perform well and become SGLG awardees every year. On the part of the DILG, rest assured we will continue to strengthen our efforts in fulfilling our mandate of improving the capabilities of local government units to ensure that the basic services extended to the public are effectively and efficiently delivered. On behalf of the Regional Office, I express my deepest appreciation to the DILG XII Project Development Management Unit (PDMU) in extending necessary technical assistance to the LGUs in the implementation of PCF projects. To the beneficiary LGUs, I commend you for a job well done. Your exemplary performance contributed much in making year 2011-2017 fruitful and fulfilling for all of us. Together, let us look forward to a more productive and successful PCF Project implementation in the days ahead. God bless and Mabuhay! REYNALDO M.
