The resolution affirms the City Government of Naga’s full commitment to join the first cohort of the Philippine Open Government Partnership (PH-OGP) Localization, a national initiative promoting transparency, accountability, and participatory governance. The invitation was extended by DILG Regional Office V, following a rigorous selection process led by CODE-NGO and the Coalition for Bicol Development (CBD), with endorsement from the Region 5 OGP RTWG. This move reinforces Naga’s longstanding leadership in open governance and its dedication to institutionalizing reforms that empower citizens and build public trust.
