The Quezon City government has bagged back-to-back accolades from the Galing Pook Awards and the Philippine Chamber of Commerce and Industry for exemplary
public services.
“We are thankful for such important recognition bestowed upon the city in the past few days,” Mayor Joy Belmonte said.“This recognition is a strong proof that we are delivering effective programs to our QCitizens while improving the city’s economy,” she added. Last Oct. 25, the Quezon City Birth Registration Online program was recognized as one of the 10 winners of the 2024 Galing Pook Awards in Malacanang attended by President Ferdinand Marcos Jr.
Belmonte said the program launched in 2022 eased the burden of families in securing their children’s identities at birth.On Oct. 21, 1993, the Galing Pook Awards recognized over 330 LGU programs from at least 200 LGUs in the country that have been promoted for replication to benefit more communities.
The mayor said City Ordinance SP-3198 of 2923 was passed to mandate all hospitals and birthing facilities in the city to utilize the QC BRO system, ensuring consistent and efficient birth registration.
