Misamis Oriental Provincial Governor Juliette Uy has made a heartfelt appeal to the political opposition, urging them to put aside their differences and work together towards a common goal of serving the people. In her inaugural speech, Uy emphasized the importance of unity and collaboration in achieving the administration’s goals.
A Call for Unity
Uy, who won an upset victory against then-incumbent Governor Peter Unabia in the midterm elections, knows that her administration faces challenges with the Vice Governor and majority of the provincial board members not aligning with her party. Despite this, she remains committed to delivering public service that responds to the people’s demands for change.
Loyalty to Public Service, Not Politics
The governor’s message was clear: “Don’t be loyal to me. Be loyal to your work in order to achieve our goals as public servants.” This statement underscores her commitment to putting the needs of the people above partisan politics. By emphasizing loyalty to public service, Uy aims to foster a sense of shared purpose among government employees and officials.
Platforms for Progress
Uy outlined her administration’s key platforms, focusing on critical areas such as health, poverty alleviation, education, transportation, and economic development.
A New Era of Public Service
With her appeal for unity and loyalty to public service, Governor Uy sets the tone for a new era of governance in Misamis Oriental. By prioritizing the needs of the people and promoting collaboration, she aims to make her administration more responsive and effective in delivering public services.
