|September 29, 2025
Mayor Benjamin Magalong here apologized to his constituents for being busy in the past weeks due to his duty as Independent Commission for Infrastructure (ICI) special adviser.
"It’s been a long time since I saw each and every one of you. I have never been this busy in my entire life,’ he said in a speech during the Brand of Excellent, Extraordinary, and Zealous Employees (BrEEZE) Awards 2025 in Camp John Hay, this city, over the weekend.
“I would like to apologize if I could not fulfill my duties as your city mayor. Please forgive me!” Magalong added.
The BrEEZE Awards is dedicated to honoring valued employees of the Baguio city government, retirees, and families of deceased colleagues who dedicated their lives to public service.
