TAGAPUL-AN, SAMAR | July 27–31, 2026 β€” The Municipality of Tagapul-an conducted its Comprehensive Development Plan (CDP) Updating Workshop at the Legislative Session Hall, bringing together members of the Sangguniang Bayan, key municipal department heads and personnel, and representatives from the DepEd, PNP, and BFP.

In her message, Municipal Mayor Hon. Princess Kate E. Limpiado encouraged everyone to actively participate and contribute meaningful, sector-specific inputs toward the crafting of an updated, responsive, and risk-informed CDP that reflects the municipality’s needs, priorities, risks, and development potentials.

The CDP updating process is vital in ensuring that Tagapul-an’s development priorities remain aligned with current conditions and emerging challenges. It provides an opportunity to validate data, identify development issues, and formulate appropriate programs, projects, and strategies across the Social, Economic, Environmental, Infrastructure, and Institutional sectors.

As an island municipality, the process also highlights the importance of disaster and climate resilience, environmental sustainability, coastal and marine resources, livelihood development, infrastructure, and local economic growth.

The activity marks an important step toward a participatory, data-driven, and risk-informed development plan that will guide Tagapul-an in pursuing sustainable development and improving the quality of life of all Tagapul-anon.

TAGAPUL-AN, SAMAR | July 7, 2026 β€” The Municipality of Tagapul-an conducted a meeting to finalize the Municipal Poverty Reduction Action Plan (MPRAP) at the Legislative Session Hall, attended by key municipal officials and employees.

The meeting focused on reviewing and refining priority programs, projects, and interventions designed to address the needs of poor and vulnerable sectors and strengthen the delivery of essential services in the municipality.

The formulation of the LPRAP is anchored on Republic Act No. 11291, or the Magna Carta of the Poor, which declares the State’s policy to uplift the standard of living and quality of life of the poor and provide sustained opportunities for their growth and development. The law further calls for area-based, sectoral, and focused interventions and emphasizes the participation of Local Government Units in poverty reduction planning and implementation.

Consistent with Section 4 of RA No. 11291, the Plan is guided by the five fundamental rights of the poor:
1.Right to Adequate Food
2.Right to Decent Work
3.Right to Relevant and Quality Education
4.Right to Adequate Housing
5.Right to the Highest Attainable Standard of Health

The finalization of the three-year MCP-LPRAP strengthens the Municipality’s commitment to inclusive, participatory, and rights-based poverty reduction, ensuring that local interventions are responsive to the actual needs of Tagapul-an’s poor and vulnerable communities.

Through coordinated efforts among municipal offices and stakeholders, the Municipality continues to pursue programs that promote social protection, economic opportunities, access to basic services, and improved quality of life for all Tagapul-anons.

TAGAPUL-AN, SAMAR | June 30, 2026 β€” The Municipality of Tagapul-an conducted a Coordination Meeting with the Philippine Statistics Authority (PSA) Samar on the localization of the Community-Based Monitoring System (CBMS) at the Legislative Session Hall.
During the meeting which was attended by municipal elected officials and key municipal employees, Mr. Erniel Jude Lorenzo - Statistical Specialist II and Mr. Gil Brozas Jr. - Statistical Analyst, presented and discussed cost estimates and budgetary requirements as Municipal counterparts in the localization of the CBMS.

The CBMS is anchored on Republic Act No. 11315, or the Community-Based Monitoring System Act, which establishes a technology-based system for generating updated and disaggregated local data to support poverty analysis, needs prioritization, policy formulation, program implementation, and impact monitoring. The law designates the Philippine Statistics Authority (PSA) as the lead agency in the implementation of the CBMS and mandates the provision of financial and technical assistance to LGUs.

Notably, Section 11 of RA No. 11315 provides for the prioritization of assistance based on the income classification of cities and municipalities, with fourth-, fifth-, and sixth-class cities and municipalities given assistance during the first three years of implementation. As a fifth-class municipality, Tagapul-an falls within the LGUs prioritized under this provision.

The localization of CBMS is particularly important in strengthening Tagapul-an’s capacity for evidence-based and responsive governance. Reliable, community-level data will help the Municipality identify priority needs, target beneficiaries, formulate appropriate programs and interventions, and strengthen local development planning and budgeting.

Through the coordination meeting, the Municipality and PSA Samar reaffirmed their commitment to strengthening local data systems and inter-agency collaboration, ensuring that accurate, timely, and localized data will serve as a strong foundation for responsive policies, effective programs, and improved delivery of services to the people of Tagapul-an.

TAGAPUL-AN, SAMAR β€” The Municipality of Tagapul-an proudly celebrates its conferment of the Seal of Good Financial Housekeeping (GFH), a recognition from the Department of the Interior and Local Government (DILG) for Local Government Units (LGUs) that demonstrate compliance with key standards of fiscal accountability and transparency.

The recognition affirms the Municipality’s commitment to responsible financial management, transparency in the use of public funds, and accountability in local governance. It reflects the collective efforts of the Municipal Government, particularly its financial management offices and personnel, in ensuring that public resources are properly managed and financial information is disclosed to the public.

The Good Financial Housekeeping recognition is anchored on the DILG’s assessment of LGUs’ compliance with essential financial governance requirements. Among the key qualifications are the issuance of an Unmodified or Qualified Audit Opinion by the Commission on Audit (COA) and compliance with the Full Disclosure Policy (FDP) requirements.

The FDP promotes transparency by requiring LGUs to disclose financial transactions and reports, enabling citizens to remain informed about how public funds are managed, disbursed, and utilized.

This achievement is more than a recognitionβ€”it is a testament to Tagapul-an’s continuing pursuit of good governance and responsible stewardship of public resources.

The Municipality of Tagapul-an, under the leadership of Municipal Mayor Hon. Princess Kate E. Limpiado, extends its appreciation to all municipal officials and employees whose dedication and commitment contributed to this accomplishment.
