Meta description: Davao City Mayor Baste Duterte advises newly-elected barangay officials to prioritize serving their communities and avoiding backlogs in their work. He emphasizes the importance of efficient service in the first year, taking action in the second year, and preparing for the next election in the third year. Officials are urged to fulfill their promises and lead by example, as the oath of office is a contract between them and the people who elected them. The DILG will conduct training to orient officials on their duties and responsibilities for the first 100 days.
