The initial planning stages for this project have already begun, announced by the DILG today.

“This project is an initiative of the Regional Office. We seek to have a database that is not only limited to basic, socio-economic, environment, and administrative profiles of local government units but other vital information as well that can be used in crafting a programme or in providing technical assistance and other related services” DILG Regional Director Florida Dijan said.

According to her, a Technical Working Group has already been created that is chaired by Assistant Regional Director Abraham Pascua.

Data from the DILG showed that Central Luzon region has a total of 7 provinces, 14 cities, 116 municipalities, and 3,102 districts.
