LGU recognitions during their term (2)

Awarded to the LGU while Arthur Davin was mayor. These are not personal awards: the seal or award goes to the local government unit, which includes the work of its staff, council and partners.

  • Galing Pook

    2005 · Magsaysay, Davao del Sur
  • Galing Pook
    Paglilingkod Abot-Kamay (PAK)

Each achievement is classified as an official award, a public recognition, an independently verified accomplishment, a self-reported achievement, or a campaign claim. Campaign materials are never treated as independent evidence.
