DURING Monday’s flag raising program, Cagayan de Oro City Mayor Rolando 'Klarex' Uy expressed his commitment to bringing his government closer to the residents of Cagayan de Oro. 

Despite a change in name, Mayor Uy assured that the weekend program 'Suroy-Suroy Sa Baryo (SSB)' would continue to provide the same high-quality City Hall services, which were previously offered under the name 'Klarex Nga Serbisyo Sa Baryo (KSB).'

These services were established at the beginning of his administration and have been extended to every barangay in the city.

"Come with me, let's go on a village tour. We will visit different neighborhoods in the city to see what needs to be added or improved to help the people," said Uy in the Visayan dialect.

Mayor Uy's dedication to bridging the gap between the government and the people is evident through the implementation of the Suroy-Suroy Sa Baryo program. 

This initiative allows City Hall officials and staff to directly interact with the residents in their respective barangays.

By bringing government services closer to the residents, the mayor aims to make these services more accessible and responsive to their needs.

The Suroy-Suroy Sa Baryo program has been highly successful since its inception, according to Uy.

It has not only provided essential services but has also created a platform for open dialogue between the government and the residents. 

Through these interactions, Mayor Uy and his team gain valuable insights into the challenges and concerns faced by the community, allowing them to make more informed policy decisions and allocate resources effectively.

Under Uy's leadership, the Suroy-Suroy Sa Baryo program has become a symbol of transparency, accountability, and genuine public service. 

By ensuring that every barangay in Cagayan de Oro City receives the same brand of City Hall services, Mayor Uy emphasizes equality and inclusivity in governance. 

“Every resident, regardless of their location, deserves access to the same level of government support and assistance,” said Uy.

Through his commitment to bringing his government closer to the residents, Mayor Uy also aims to foster a stronger sense of community and partnership. 

By actively engaging with the people, he aims to build trust and create a collaborative environment where residents feel empowered to contribute to the development of their neighborhoods and city as a whole. 

The Suroy-Suroy Sa Baryo program serves as a testament to Mayor Uy's vision of a government that is truly responsive and accountable to the needs of its constituents.
