DEPARTMENT OF INTERIOR AND LOCAL GOVERNMENT

    Federalism is an integral quality that a government must have in order to ensure a fair distribution of power between the authorities and its constituents.

    In accordance with President Rodrigo Roa Duterte’s patriotic commitment to good governance, Local Government Units (LGUs) have a duty to compel to the Local Government Code of 1991 mandated by the Congress. This year, the Department of Interior and Local Government (DILG) celebrates the 25th Anniversary of the Code’s implementation with a theme “LGC@25: Pagsulong, Progreso, Pagbabago”.

    Pursuant to this celebration, the Local Government Unit of Taytay (LGU-Taytay) also commemorates its journey of local governance in building and transforming the town in becoming business-friendly and competitive; socially-protective and safe; accountable, transparent, participative and effective; and/or environment-protective, disaster-resilient and climate-change adaptive community.
