HINDANG, Leyte  –  A new edifice symbolizing unity and progress now stood in the center of Hindang housing its town hall and Sangguniang Bayan and other municipal offices.

Leyte Governor Carlos Jericho Petilla together with Leyte 5th District Representative Carlos Cari, Baybay City Mayor Carmen Cari and Hindang Mayor Elpidio Cabal Jr. recently led the inauguration of the modernly designed multi-million multi-purpose hall that also serves the town hall.

Mayor Cabal said his administration opted to prioritize the rehabilitation of their old municipal hall for the people “to experience and feel the progress the town has attained”.

He said that with a better-looking and more modern town hall can ensure a better and effective service to the people.

“The town hall, although it may just be a building also reflects the personality of the town,” Mayor Cabal added.

The mayor likewise mentioned that the town hall’s inauguration is the fulfillment of a long-time dream to have a new municipal hall as the old one it replaced was already too old and dilapidated.

The mayor’s office for one, though was airconditioned, had its ceiling ready to fall any moment. Gov. Petilla said that having “a nice and spacious working environment evokes good quality service among the employees”.

“The work environment speaks so much of how one will conduct his work. It also helps to have a good working environment for the employees and staff to come to everyday and inspire them to work compared to working in a building that could fall on you anytime,” Gov. Petilla said during the short program held.
