Dingras, Ilocos Norte—Following closely to the selection of Laoag City councilor Handy T. Lao as national interim president of the Philippine Councilors League, another Ilocos Norte elected official, Dingras Mayor Joefrey Saguid, is elected as the League of Mayors of the Philippines (LMP) vice president for Luzon.

“It’s an honor to be one of the vice presidents in the LMP national level representing Luzon because it was unexpected that I will be given the chance to be elected, more so in the national level,” Saguid said.  

He thanked the Almighty for another position he now holds as he also acknowledged the support of President Ferdinand R. Marcos Jr. and the whole Marcos family

Saguid hopes that with his new position, he can help in securing help and projects for Ilocos Norte, with the assistance of Sen. Ma. Imelda “Imee” R. Marcos and the President, himself.

To further prove this point, Saguid has already lined up the plans, projects and activities for the next LMP-Ilocos Norte chapter meeting.

One of the most important topics for the meeting, according to Saguid, is the drafting of new by laws for the mayors’ group.

The newly elected national LMP President is La Paz, Abra Mayor JB Bernos.

President Marcos personally administered the oath of the newly elected LMP national officers at the Malacañang Palace on Sept. 30, 2022.

  1. I recently lost my passport while travelling and can't stress how much an Emergency passport helps. The officials handled my emergency passport request quickly and efficiently. It saved my trip and showed me the necessity of photocopying or digitising essential papers. Thanks to passport services for their quick response and fast emergency passport application procedure. This experience has demonstrated the importance of planning before travelling overseas.
