“Gi-strengthen nato ang atong mga programa para malikayan ang mga daotan nga mahitabo sa atong syudad” [We strengthened our programs (regarding security, peace and order) to avoid any unfortunate events to happen in the city], said PSI Masepequiña in an interview.

He also stressed that this is not only due to the MinBizCon but because this is their duty and responsibility to provide a liveable, peaceful and secured city for all Tagumenyos.
