HAPPY GENERAL MANAGER’S MONTH!


This month, we shine the spotlight on the inspiring leadership of our new steward at the helm — Engineer Collen Bacarro Tarcelo — as we proudly celebrate General Manager’s Month!

From the moment he stepped into MORESCO-1, Engr. Collen has carried with him the values, principles, and work ethic instilled by the trailblazing pioneers who came before him. Today, we don’t just see a new GM — we see a man molded by experience, sharpened by service, and guided by the shining legacies of those he followed.

But make no mistake: he brings his own spark.

His leadership is more than just strategic — it is visionary, anchored in purpose, and propelled by an unyielding drive to bring the cooperative to even greater heights. A leader not just in title, but in deed and in heart. Or, as we proudly say:


“Dili lamang siya GM sa buhat ug kasing-kasing, apan GM nga maka-Diyos.”

As we celebrate this special month, we also embrace the optimism of a new era — one that is grounded in our cooperative’s enduring mission, daring in innovation, and strong in the face of change. Under GM Collen’s leadership, may we all continue to move with excellence, lead with integrity, and serve with a heart for the people.

To our entire MORESCO-1 family, may this celebration inspire us to reflect on the values we live by and the leadership we support and grow with.

Here’s to leading with purpose, serving with passion, and building a stronger cooperative together.

Padayon, GM Collen! Lead us into the future with excellence, humility, and heart.

Happy General Manager’s Month!

A proud moment for the energy sector and rural communities! Former MORESCO-1 Board President Dr. Pedrito “Toytoy” Baculio was recently conferred the Outstanding Mindanaoan Professional Organization Leader Award during the 5th Mindanao Governance & Leadership Excellence Awards (MGLEA) by Mindanao Daily News Network (MDN).

Dr. Baculio, a veteran public servant and rural electrification advocate, has held some of the most pivotal roles in the electric cooperative movement — as Past President of MORESCO-1, President of the Northern Mindanao Electric Cooperative Association (NORMECA), and Former National President of PHILRECA.

In his heartfelt acceptance speech, Dr. Baculio dedicated the award to the 16 million+ member-consumer-owners empowered by the Rural Electrification Program, as well as the National Government and all ECs nationwide.

Throughout his career, he championed electric cooperatives’ autonomy in Congress, securing the support of 138 legislators to safeguard their independence. Today, he continues to contribute to nation-building as a consultant for San Miguel Corporation and NGCP.

This recognition affirms decades of tireless service, leadership, and dedication to energizing the countryside — a true embodiment of servant leadership Mindanao can be proud of.

Congratulations, Dr. Baculio! Your light continues to shine across the island and beyond.
