Lapus said during the turnover ceremony of the newly renovated Gabaldon building at the Zamboanga (East) Central School, formerly the “Old Burleigh School,” lamenting that not all local government units in the country have done nor surpassed what Zamboanga has been doing for the education sector.

The city government of Zamboanga was adjudged as the Region’s most child friendly city for its outstanding implementation of programs aimed to protect children’s rights and welfare.

The Department of Social Welfare and Development (DSWD) and the National Economic Development Authority (NEDA) conferred the award during the culmination program of Children’s Month held at the Inland Resort in Boalan last week.

Zamboanga City is recognized as the 2008 Regional outstanding winner for the Presidential Award for the Child-Friendly Municipalities and Cities, Highly Urbanized City (HUC) category.

The DSWD cited the city’s “valuable efforts in ensuring child-friendly governance” which have been vital in preserving and promoting children’s rights to survival, development, protection and participation. 

Mayor Lobregat expressed jubilation over the recognition saying it is another achievement that is owed to the city government workforce.

The award included a plaque and a P50, 000 cash prize which will be used for the implementation of programs aimed at protecting children’s rights and welfare through the City Social Welfare and Development Office headed by Francisco Barredo.
