The provincial government of Zambales has distributed some P62 million in educational assistance to local students in the past four years under Governor Hermogenes E. Ebdane Jr.’s long-term capability-building program to improve “human infrastructure” in the province.
In a dialogue with the three officials at the House of Representatives on Wednesday, power distribution companies in Zambales and Olongapo City agreed to reduce electric billings by as much as two pesos per kilowatt hour in March, and to revert in April to the reduced rates agreed upon in September last year.
Governor Hermogenes Ebdane Jr. last Friday urged local stakeholders in the agriculture sector to embrace new technology in order to increase productivity and improve sustainable farming in the province.
Governor Hermogenes Ebdane Jr. clarified over the weekend that the reported “lapses and deficiencies” in the use by the provincial government of some P531 million for COVID-19 related programs and projects had already been resolved with the Commission on Audit (COA).
