35,000 Bulakenyos benefit from Sine Bulakenyo

CITY OF MALOLOS – Almost 35,000 Bulakenyos from 80 barangays in the province have benefited from Sine Bulakenyo, a program of the Provincial Government of Bulacan that aims to further disseminate useful and timely information.

According to Gov. Wilhelmino M. Sy-Alvarado, the program will help the public to increase their awareness with regard to the programs and projects of the Provincial Government as well as the important announcements and news about the province.

“Upang matamo ang kaunlaran, dapat alam ng mga mamamayan ang mga proyekto na maaari nilang mapakinabangan. Sa ganitong paraan, hindi na mahihirapan ang ating mga kababayan na makuha ang mga tulong na kanilang kailangan. Hindi na sila gagastos upang magpabalik-balik sa Kapitolyo  dahil sa kanilang barangay mismo ay ibinababa na ang mga impormasyon na dapat nilang malaman,” the governor said.

Provincial Information Officer Maricel Cruz added that the program provides games and trivia about Bulacan to increase their knowledge about the province and to add entertainment and joy to the residents of the community. 

 “Higit na nabibigyang kaalaman lalo na ang mga kabataan tungkol sa kasaysayan at kasalukuyang mga kaganapan sa lalawigan. Bukod dito, may premyo pa na mga souvenirs tulad ng payong, T-shirts, mugs at tumblers upang higit pa silang mapasigla na magsaliksik tungkol sa ating dakilang lalawigan,” Cruz said.

Meanwhile, Brgy. Captain Michael Aquino of Brgy. Lugam, City of Malolos expressed his satisfaction on the program as his constituents enjoy the film showing of the provincial government.

“Mapalad po ang aming barangay dahil isa kami sa mga nabiyayaan sa pamamagitan ng programang Sine Bulakenyo. Bukod sa mahahalagang impormasyon na aming natamo sa pamamagitan nito, nasiyahan din ang aking mga kabarangay sa libreng pelikula at mga grocery items na ipina-raffle sa mga dumalo,” Aquino said.

Brgy. Captain Natividad Iman from Brgy. San Roque, Paombong also admired the quick approval of their request for the construction and repair of their roads through the help of Sine Bulakenyo.

“Nang malaman ni Gob na may pending request kami sa Kapitolyo, agad niya itong inaksyunan kung kaya sa ngayon ay maayos na ang aming kalsada,” Iman said.

Prior to this, over 100 families have also benefited from “Pamaskong Handog ni Gob. Alvarado” last December 2014, which is also part of Sine Bulakenyo.

The program was made possible through the initiative of the Provincial Public Affairs Office and cooperative efforts of Provincial General Services Office, Provincial Engineers Office, Provincial Civil Security and Jail Management Office, Provincial Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Office and Bulacan Provincial Police Office.
