Tagum News: Rellon outlines vision for Tagum in rousing inaugural speech
8:11:00 PM
Tagum City Mayor Allan Lopez Rellon rallied for peace and unity in his inaugural address following his swearing in as this city's local chief executive for 2013 to 2016 held at the Christ The King Cathedral, Dr. Juan Gonzalez Avenue last June 28, 2013.
In spirit of good governance, Rellon promised to uphold public interest above anything else; stressing that he "recognizes no party but our city and no family but the great family of Tagumeños."
Mayor Rellon explained the importance of invoking God’s presence in the start of his administration, agreeing to what Bishop Manlapaz said as a way of promoting a culture of prayer and mutual cooperation between the church and the local government.
In perhaps what could be the best proof that Tagum is indeed the city in perfect harmony, outgoing Mayor Rey T. Uy turned-over the symbolic key of responsibility to Mayor Rellon after the former’s speech where he thanked the Tagumeños for the support they had extended in his three consecutive terms as Tagum’s top leader.
“The upcoming leadership of Mayor Allan L. Rellon will surely herald a new chapter of our beloved city. As we journey into this another trip with Mayor Rellon’s leadership, let us continue to support and help each other for the continuous progress of our great city,” Uy said in his speech.

"Let us mark this day with remembrance as the day when we all start to mark together toward the fulfillment of our dreams and together let us all be the strong and mighty wings that will bring our beloved Tagum City to greater heights."In his 18-minute speech, the 44-year old mayor delivered a rousing message whose theme evolved on good governance and being sensitive to people’s needs. He also sketched his vision of governance through his EAGLE WINGS Program that gives priority on education, employment, agriculture, peace and security, livelihood and tourism, economy and affordability of taxes, wellness, NGO empowerment, good governance and social services.
"On this day I pledge this administration to your service. I pledge that we shall extend the protection and the services of the local government to everyone, fairly and impartially—to the rich and the poor, the learned and the unlettered."
