PCCI cites Pangasinan as “business-friendly LGU”
LINGAYEN–Pangasinan was cited recently as most business-friendly LGU (Local Government Unit) by the Philippine Chamber of Commerce and Industry (PCCI) during the group’s 36th Philippine Business Conference in Manila last October 13.
The province was specifically cited for its “commendable efforts in adopting quality management services and instituting systems innovation, significantly benefiting its business community and citizenry.”
Provincial Administrator Raffy Baraan said the provincial government has been exerting all efforts to promote an over-all investment-friendly atmosphere in the province, particularly in the tourism front and priority infrastructure projects.
The provincial government’s aggressive tourism programs have propelled Pangasinan as Region 1’s top tourist destination from its previous position of third.
Several foreign investors, particularly from South Korea and Taiwan, have already committed to invest in several projects in the province.
Vice Governor Ferdinand Calimlim and Baraan received the award on behalf of Governor Amado Espino Jr. from Miguel Varela, chairman Emeritus of PCCI and Benjamin Philip Romualdez, chairman of the 36th PBC.
