Negros Occidental Governor-elect Eugenio Jose Lacson said his administration will continue the projects and programs started by his predecessor, outgoing Governor Alfredo Marañon, Jr.
The incoming governor said he will pursue completion of the Negros First Animal Hub at the Panaad Park in Bacolod City, relocation of the Negros Occidental Language and Information Technology Center (NOLITC) to Talisay City, and development of Murcia’s Mambukal Mountain Resort.
Lacson said he would like to see the animal hub utilized to its maximum capability, while construction on the new NOLITC buildings will soon begin.
He also expressed interest in continuing programs on agriculture, scholarships, and crop insurance.
