CHRISTMAS
CHEERS – For Camarines Sur
Gov. LRay Villafuerte (center), the celebration of Christmas will
not be complete if he won’t be able to spread his good cheers to
his loyal and solid base of supporters in the different
municipalities and barangays in the province. As such last
December, he was given the opportunity to assemble his local
leaders (from barangay captains, municipal kagawads, mayors and
vice mayors, provincial kagawads, up to the Vice Governor) along
with his other trusted leaders and led them in a day full of good
tidings held at the SP Session Hall (photo above) at the
Legislative Bldg., Capitol Complex, Cadlan, Pili. This is Gov.
LRay’s way of sharing his blessings and showing his gratitude for
their continued support in all his programs and endeavours for the
province. JMTS/DRanera
