Global City

“Ito po ay kabilang sa isang 67 hectares’ development projects natin dito sa Barangay Bani. At dito po natin itatayo ang Bayambang Global City,” she rabble roused in the night of March 26 on a high stage amid the cheering and applauding of supporters, politicians, and sea of spectators – drawn by two big Manila bands’ Side A and Rock Steady - that filled up the swanky immense area that hosted the Guinness record breaker taller than the Statue of Liberty the P250 million’s 50.23-meter statue of Saint Vincent Ferrer.

Quiambao's speech preceded the proclamation of the opposition party’s governorship and mayorship candidates and their slates in the forty-four towns and three cities of Pangasinan province.

Jose-Quiambao cited the gargantuan projects she and her husband will implement - when she will be catapulted to office after the May 9 election - like the Bayambang Global City that will host a town center, coliseum, super malls, villages, and government center.

“At sa pamamagitan po dito mas marami pong trabaho sa ating mga Bayambanguenos, mas maraming magbubukas at opurtunidad pa sa ating mga kababayan”

10,000 Jobs from the Quiambaos’ Bamboo Industry

Because of the family’s bamboo plantations in the four towns in Pangasinan, the Quiambaos need 10,000 workers to be part of them.

“Kailangan po namin ng sampung libong trabahante kasi pag may trabaho na po iyon po ang pangarap ng Team Quiambao –Sabangan (vice mayoralty candidate Raul-ic Sabangan) ang rebulusyon sa kahirapan”.

She said that in year 2028 each of the families here should be earning not less than P10,000 a month in case this town, where President Emilio Aguinaldo declared it as the 5th capital of the Philippines in 1899, which has a population of 129,011 (PSA 2020).

Protection Against Abuses to Women and Children

Jose-Quiambao declared too her pet project on the protection of abused women and children.

“Abong na Aro (House of Love) na mag huhubog sa ating mga kababayan na inaabuso. Ngunit sa tingin ko kulang pa tayo sa concrete na programa na ganito”.


Good Governance

She trumpeted the good governance passionately advocated and vigorously implemented by her mayor husband where entrenched and perennial corruption acts committed by the administration of his predecessors here have been eliminated in the last five years.

“Kitang kita ninyo naman po ang mga buwis ninyo. Di ba lalong umunlad ang bayan ng Bayambang at lalo pa po nating papaunlarin patungo sa mas magandang Bayambang".

New Town Owned University

This coming August the local government unit will open the Bayambang Polytechnic University. Quiambao said the free education given by the BPU to the youth here will be their pass for employment that can eventually help their family.


Spiking Agriculture

She crowed about the online computer application concocted by her husband and friends that can jack-up the stocks of the rice, onion, and other farmers here.

“Ibig sabihin noon dapat po ginagamit po natin ang teknolohiya para maka innovate ng mga bagong paraan sa pagsaka. Kaya po ang aking asawa at si Tito George Yulo at iilang pang team ay gumawa po ng isang application ng apps sa phone”.

She called it e-arrow ecosystem embedded in the android phones of the farm workers where its functions can be compared with those offered by online stores’ Lazada and Shopee.

“Sa pamamagitan po ng e-arrow at system na puwede na pong bumili ng (murang) binhi ang ating mga magsasaka at bumili ng fertilizer”.

She hoped the youth will have interest in farming after she will implement her programs in agriculture.

“Dahil naniniwala po kami sa Team Quiambao-Sabangan No. 1 force ng ating ekonomiya ay agrikultura kaya mabuhay po ang ating magsasaka”.


Hospital

Jose-Quiambao cited the being constructed Julius K. Quiambao Medical and Wellness Center that could treat the health problems of the people here.

Quiambao said the medical center will be the first hospital in Region-1 that has mental health facilities.
