is an administrative aide of the Capiz Provincial Tourism and Cultural Aff airs Office.
“My congratulations and commendation do not end here because we still have a long way to go [as public servants]. If we stick to the same commitment and same vision, we will not fail [in serving the people],” said Castro.
