P’nan Prov’l Gov’t Hurdles ‘Good Financial Housekeeping’

 LINGAYEN, Pangasinan—Another feather has been added to the cap of the Provincial Government of Pangasinan (PGP), spearheaded by Governor Ramon V. Guico III, after being recognized by the Department of the Interior and Local Government (DILG) for its distinct and remarkable performance in administering its public funds for the year 2023.





The Seal of Good Financial Housekeeping (SGFH), formerly the Seal of Good Housekeeping, cites the compliance of the local government unit (LGU) with accounting and auditing standards, rules, and regulations.

The endowment of the certification by the DILG to the province aptly proved that the present administration has spent and audited its public funds completely and with full transparency.

Joining the PGP with the same feat are the LGUs in the province, which include the four cities—Alaminos, Urdaneta, San Carlos, and Dagupan—and the 43 towns.

SGFH is one of the core components of the Seal of Good Local Governance (SGLG). The other core components are disaster preparedness and social protection, which are responsive to the needs of different sectors like women, children, senior citizens, and persons with disabilities.

The essential components, on the other hand, are business friendliness and competitiveness; peace and order; and environmental management. (Ruby R. Bernardino/PIMRO)
