The Chairperson of the CCRBMC, His
Excellency Jose S. Palma, DENR
Undersecretary, Dr. Isabelo R. Montejo, and Office of the
Presidential Assistant for the Visayas
Representative, Engr. Ricardo Gaga Mendoza speak up
during CCRBMCs Organizational
Conference last July 21-22, 2016 as part of CCRBMCs 4th
year of existence.
Our gift to ourselves is the crafting of the
CCRBMC Executive Order and handed it to the OPAV
Representative with a corresponding covering letter signed
the CCRBMC Chairperson to be forwarded to
the Office of the President Rodrigo R. Duterte; with the draft
E.O. is the attachment the position paper for its objectives
and rationale.
How was it done? The Secretariat writes the
draft Executive Order and presented the draft E.O. to all the
members of the Central Cebu River Basins Management
Council; reviewed, corrected, and
packaged and handed it over to the OPAV Representative.
It will be a long journey and wait but the most
important thing is: the triggering first step.
The essence is in its sustainment of the lobbying
efforts of policy advocacy and the diligence of
coordination, feedbacking, and staff work. Initiating it is just
one step. Building the linkage and network of efforts is
another thing. It will be a rollercoaster ride till it is achieved.
