Mayor Ouano highlighted his administration's accomplishments, particularly in healthcare services, education, flood management, financial housekeeping, public safety, beautification, private sector partnerships, free transportation, disaster response, housing, and vehicle acquisition.
He shared these accomplishments with department heads and city employees, emphasizing that these were not his alone but rather a product of their hard work and dedication in making them possible.
"These first 100 days have been about action - but more than that, they've been about collaboration and pagtinabangay," Ouano said, also thanking Vice Mayor Glenn Bercede, the City Council, barangay officials, department heads, and private partners for their support.
In his report, Ouano highlighted significant strides in healthcare, including the distribution of ₱25 million worth of medicines to all barangays.
