Bataan earns distinction at the 38th BLGF Stakeholders’ Recognition

The Provincial Government of Bataan once again earned national distinction after being honored at the 38th Bureau of Local Government Finance (BLGF) Stakeholders’ Recognition held on November 5 at SMX Convention Center, SM Aura in Bonifacio Global City. Bataan also received an award last year during the 37th BLGF Stakeholders’ Recognition.

The ceremony was led by Department of Finance Undersecretary Bayani Agabin and BLGF Executive Director Consolacion Agcaoil. Provincial Treasurer Alice Magpantay and Provincial Assessor Engr. Ricky Herrera received the following awards for the Province of Bataan:
• Top 1 – Ratio of Locally Sourced Revenues to Total Current Operating Income (FY 2024)
• Top 6 – Locally-Sourced Revenue Collections (FY 2024)

Also recognized were the municipalities of Mariveles, led by Mayor AJ Concepcion, and Limay, led by Mayor Richie David, for their outstanding performance in local revenue generation.
These recognitions prove that Bataan is financially resilient, accountable, and capable of sustaining development through its own locally generated resources.
