LOOK | HONORING A MINDANAOAN TRAILBLAZER
Outstanding Mindanaoan Professional Organization Leader Awardee
Dr. Pedrito “Toytoy” H. Baculio, PhD
5th Mindanao Governance & Leadership Excellence Awards
Limketkai Luxe Hotel, Cagayan de Oro City | June 25, 2025
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.
