In DTI Batangas, we make it a habit that we thank and appreciate the time and effort given by each team member. May it be small or big, each contribution is a puzzle piece, making up a year full of achievements. Some of the most relevant members of this workforce are the Negosyo Center Business Counselors (NCBC) assigned in their respective municipalities who act as the arms of DTI Batangas. They represent the provincial office in various local government units around the province, making it easier for micro, small, and medium enterprises to seek assistance and counselling for their entrepreneurial journey. NCBCs always deliver their best to accomplish the tasks at hand and to meet all the targets set.

With this, the provincial office planned and held a half-day recognition of all NCBCs last 14 December 2021 at Villa Belinda Resort, from 8:00 am to 12:00 pm. This event was graced by the OIC Provincial Director of DTI Batangas, Leila M. Cabreros, the Division Chief of the Business Development Division, Maria Carmen Garcia, and all the other account officers. Regardless of their years in service, they were still commended and applauded for encompassing all the DTI core values of passion, integrity, competence, creativity, synergy, and love of country. NCBCs who have served for two years and onwards are given plaques of appreciation and tokens for their loyalty and dedication in service.

The program was hosted by Pathy Joy Furto. During the program, OIC Provincial Director Leila Cabreros, DC Maria Carmen Garcia, Gregorio Ortizo Jr., Mark Ian Recio, Marlin Valencia, Bernadette Arenas, Sherlyn Gutierrez, and Cris Agdan gave their messages of gratitude and appreciation to all the NCBCs. ♦
