MISAMIS ORIENTAL — Newly elected Governor Juliette Uy has unveiled her strategic vision for the province, emphasizing inclusive governance, economic revitalization, and sustainable development. With three terms under her belt as the Congresswoman for Misamis Oriental’s 2nd District, Uy brings a wealth of experience and a strong track record of public service to the provincial government.
“My goal is to translate experience into action and momentum into real, measurable progress,” Uy stated during her inaugural address. “The people of Misamis Oriental deserve a government that works with them and for them.”
Grounded in Service, Focused on Delivery
Uy’s tenure in Congress was marked by advocacy for healthcare, education, and infrastructure. Her familiarity with the province’s long-standing issues, combined with her legislative expertise, positions her to deliver local solutions with national-level impact.
As Governor, she plans to amplify this impact through a focused development agenda built around four key pillars:
Key Initiatives Under the Uy Administration
- Infrastructure Modernization: Uy aims to fast-track improvements in transportation and public utilities, focusing on roads, bridges, and transit systems to improve access and stimulate local trade.
- Economic Growth and Job Creation: The governor is prioritizing small business development, investment facilitation, and tourism promotion. These sectors, she believes, are critical to building a resilient and dynamic provincial economy.
- Accessible Healthcare and Quality Education: Plans are underway to expand healthcare outreach in rural areas and enhance learning outcomes through skills-based education programs that prepare youth for modern job markets.
- Environmental Sustainability: Uy is also launching a climate-conscious agenda, focusing on community-based conservation, responsible resource use, and climate change adaptation.
Unity as a Foundation
Governor Uy has placed strong emphasis on inclusive leadership. She intends to work closely with barangay officials, civil society groups, the private sector, and other stakeholders to foster transparency and accountability.
“Progress requires unity — across parties, sectors, and communities. This administration will listen, collaborate, and lead with the people at the center of every policy,” Uy said.
Looking Ahead
As Misamis Oriental turns the page toward a new chapter in its development journey, Uy’s administration is expected to bring a results-oriented approach to provincial governance. Early indicators suggest broad public support for her forward-looking agenda.
With a vision rooted in unity and a firm commitment to delivery, Juliette Uy is poised to lead Misamis Oriental into a new era of inclusive growth and lasting progress.
