The event is part of a series of activities leading up to the celebration of Araw ng Laguindingan, the municipality’s foundation day, slated on July 12.

The State of the Municipality Address marked a significant moment for the newly elected municipal leadership, with Mayor-elect Macua outlining his administration’s vision, programs, and governance priorities for the next three years. MORESCO-1’s presence at the SOMA highlighted its active role not only as a power distributor but also as a vital development partner in its host municipality.

In his message, Mayor-elect Macua expressed his intention to deepen collaborative efforts with key institutions and service providers such as MORESCO-1, especially in addressing critical areas like energy access, infrastructure, sustainable growth, and grassroots empowerment.

MORESCO-1, which has been headquartered in Laguindingan since its founding, reaffirmed its support to the local government’s mission of inclusive development and vowed to continuously provide reliable and responsive electric service to all Member-Consumer-Owners (MCOs) in the municipality and beyond.

The SOMA and the week-long Araw ng Laguindingan activities serve as a testament to the unity of purpose between the LGU and stakeholders like MORESCO-1 in building a brighter, more progressive Laguindingan.
