CALBAYOG CITY –
Samar First District Engineering Office (SFDEO) has once again
bagged the first place in the overall ranking of DEOs in Region 8
for the year 2018, under the Communications Development Program of
the Department of Public Works and Highways (DPWH).
Every month, DEOs are
given star ratings based on the quantity, content and timeliness of
public information materials they submit to the Regional Office as
well as items published in various media. Monthly ComDev ratings are
then tallied to produce the final rankings for the year.
Samar 1st District
Engineer Alvin Ignacio officially received the certificate of
recognition, which was presented by DPWH-RO8 Director Nerie Bueno
during the Regional Monthly Coordination meeting held last June 18,
2019 at the Club House, Pawing, Palo, Leyte.
The recognition is a
reflection of the tireless efforts of the SFDEO Public Information
Office under the leadership of Administrative Chief and then PIO-Designate
Ma. Nenita Gomez.
“We were blessed to have
had talented personnel under our wings, whose skills we could employ
to their utmost potential. Of course, we also had full support from
the management, so we had all the equipment and resources we
needed,” the chief says.
Through the DevCom
Program, the department awards DEOs that work diligently towards
keeping the public informed and maintaining transparency for all
projects they undertake. This is the sixth consecutive year that
Samar I ranked #1 among all thirteen (13) DEOs in the region.
