close kami ni gov

i personally saw governor Joey Salceda of Albay for a couple of times now. i saw him once in BU during the opening of the regional SCUAA and a couple of time during the pinakaMAGAYON festival that i witnessed. thinking that i am a Darageuño by real birth by Polangueño by roots and by 'legal' birth, Albayano by blood but Nagueño by heart, i didn't hesitate to add his genuine facebook account wherein he is almost always 24/7 online and would give out comments and posts different things on his wall and other's wall. well, i would like to admit that among the politicians that we have today, governor Salceda belongs to the one i admire because of his pro-environment stand, his leadership style and the way he lead albay. i can say that albay is progressing much and that's because of him. Polangui, as an example, is almost a city kulang na lang sa legality because hindi pa nito abot ang population requirement and the size requirement stated in Local Government Code if i am correct. so yun, i add governor joey during the heat of Magayon Festival and upon responding to my request, he posted this on my wall"

of course, as courtesy, i heed to his request in helping him thus i posted it also on my wall hoping that my friends would like it. well, i would like to believe that some of my friends liked the festival page and also added gov. salceda. just like rokksi. gov also did the same thing and ask rokksi to help him promote the festival page. well, i'm amazed with the statement of gov which goes like 'si gov joey sarte salceda tabi ini'. for me, it's a statement of humility. that's why i commented (which was not inlcuded in the printscreen). sabi ko, napakahumble naman ni gov.

to my surprise, governor salceda posted on my wall and poof... friends na kami! joke lang. hm. we had a little conversation and my admiration to governor salceda ay dumagdag because it's very seldom for a governor to get connected to his constituents. sabi nga ni melvz nung nagsayaw si gov ng rapapa with dianne necio, hindi mo lamang makita ang governor namin na mangganyan (btw, melvz is from the ISLAmic republic of Masbate). haha. my bestfriend was also amazed and said that i was bigaten because the good governor commented on my wall. well, sabi ko friends na kami. close friends. haha.

my point in posting this is that, the accessibility of governor joey salceda is highly commendable. i remember secretary jesse robredo whose cellphone number is open to public and would reply whenever you text him. well, i guess public officials should be accessible for their constituents. pero, close na kami ni gov. haha. :D

btw, this happened way back april pa. may katagalan na. haha. :D
