II PROVINCE OF ILOILO Republic of the Philippines Message of the Governor At the outset I would like to thank the people of the Province of Iloilo for the support in the past eight years of my administration. It served as my inspiration to work harder in order to make our province progressive and globally competitive. The accolades we have earned from different sectors, both public and private, are clear manifestations of the good governance that I have institutionalized in the Iloilo provincial government. But more than the awards and recognitions we have receive, we have accomplished projects that helped uplift the lives of our people, such as, installation of potable water systems, rehabilitation of provincial roads, upgrading of our hospitals and rural health centers, etc. I am very thankful to the support of the Sangguniang Panlalawigan in making all our projects possible. Also, to the men and women of the Iloilo Provincial Government who do the legwork prior to the implementation of these projects. Let me also acknowledge the support of our foreign partners like the Korea International Cooperation Agency (KOICA) which have provided us financial support in our various health projects. Many other private and the non-government organizations (NGOs) had partnered with us in our thrust towards the development of our province. As I had emphasized, we intend to sustain what we have started and it is in this light that I usher all the provincial government employees and my fellow public servants to join me in this cause. ilo. Let us join hands and work together to achieve our ultimate goal – a progressive Province of Ilo GOV. ARTHUR D. DEFENSOR, SR.

This value and culture made to us by this administration will leave a legacy of good leadership and excellence between the executive and legislative branch of government. The enactment of several ordinances of the 12th Sangguniang Panlalawigan in support to the program of the Governor play a vital role for the success of all endeavour implemented by the executive. We are continuing to cross the road to harness development that will bring tremendous effect and opportunities to the people of Iloilo. The publication of 2018 Provincial Profile of the Province, will give us background of what we have achieved through the years by showing us the statistical data gathered by our Provincial Planning and Development Office. This book will help us to determine what programs of government we are going to focus and improve by looking the statistical data provided herein. This would also educate us on the background of General features, Demography, Economic Status, Social Services, Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Program and Local Development Project of the Administration of the Province of Iloilo. Looking into the general features of Iloilo we can say that: “This is your government which the primary concern is to give what is due to its people”. We can do a lot of possibilities to improve our services provided however, the support of the people will be significant to pursue what we dreamed and aspired for the best of Iloilo. We already reach a far high destination in pursuing our dreams and aspirations but we don’t stop on this level, because we want more, better and brighter Iloilo in the future. In order to inspire other people to do better for the government, it is important that the prime leaders should show sincerity and honesty in public service to gain trust and confidence to its people. Madamo gid nga salamat kag mabuhay ang akon pinalangga nga kasimanwa sa bug-os nga Probinsya sang Iloilo. VICE GOV. CHRISTINE “TINGTING” S.
