To serve as One-Stop-Shop for key nat’l gov’t agencies, Construction of Catanduanes People’s Center kicks off in CatSU
AdministrationThe construction of
Catanduanes People’s Center inside the campus of the Catanduanes State
University, which will serve as one-stop-shop for satellite offices of national
agencies, is set to start this week.
CatSU President Dr.
Patrick Alain T. Azanza, represented by Executive Vice President Dr. Bernardino
C. Abundo Jr., along with Congressman Eulogio ‘Leo’ Rodriguez, Department of
Public Works and Highway (DPWH) Assistant District Engineer Max Eleda and other
government officials, witnessed the groundbreaking ceremony for the P47 million
project on Friday, August 11.
“I remember the numerous
times Cong. Leo Rodriguez and I met with Senator Francis Tolentino in the halls
of Senate to seek budget for the People’s Center that shall rise inside CATSU
to serve as a one-stop-shop for processing important documents needed to be
able to study, work, travel, and for
other purposes,” the president recounted on how it was started.
“Surely, this is going to
help many Catandunganons and I wish to congratulate Cong. Leo for having turned
this into reality during his term of office,” he added.
The said one-stop-shop
facility in the island-province will help Catandunganons to efficiently secure
pertinent documents from the National Bureau of Investigation (NBI) for
clearances, Philippine Regulation Commission (PRC) for identification cards and
other certifications, and passports to the Department of Foreign Affairs (DFA)
to name a few.
It can be remembered that
in 2022, CatSU offered at least 1,000 square meters of its lot under a usufruct
agreement with the congressional office in order to house the facility.
Joining also the event
were Vice President for Administrative and Financial Affairs Engr. Benjamin
Hannycel Nuyda, Philippine Information Agency - Catanduanes chief Edna
Bagadiong, Radyo Pilipinas Station Manager Arlene O. Bagadiong, CatSU Information
Officer Anjo G. Tugay, and other officials. #AGC
