THE EAR - The Philippine Star
August 27, 2012 | 12:00am

WELCOMED REFORM. A Cebuano businessman who has opened a branch of his company in Naga City (Luzon) lauds the late DILG Sec. Jesse Robredo for a significant reform he introduced at the Naga City hall during his mayorship. “He made it easy for business people to secure business permits and much easier during renewal time,” he said.

UNLIKE IN CEBU. The Cebuano businessman told The Ear: “Kadyot ra ang pag secure ug pag-renew og business permit, unlike here in Cebu.” Robredo’s concern for the interest of business people has resulted in the rapid growth of commerce and industry in this city, according to this Cebuano businessman.
