PUERTO Princesa Mayor Edward S. Hagedorn expressed positive support to the Junior Chamber International Philippines 61st National Convention that will be held in October 2009 in the City to be implemented by the JCI Puerto Princesa Peacock, Inc. in cooperation and partnership with the JCI Puerto Princesa Oil and the JCI Puerto Princesa Kiao.

In a meeting last week at Badjao Seafront, Mayor Hagedorn said he is proud that there are organizations of young professionals in the City that are willing to contribute to its good image by doing respectable leadership and entrepreneurship.

Informed of the numerous awards that the JCI Puerto Princesa Peacock, Inc. has received from the recently held 27th Southern Luzon Area Conference in Legazpi City, Bicol and the 59th JCI Philippines National Convention in Cebu, Mayor Hagedorn said he can’t find it in his heart not to support the LOM when all it did is bring glory and achievements to the City.

“By 2009, many things have changed in Puerto Princesa. We would have more hotels and more restaurants to cater to the need of the delegates who will join the national convention. You can rely on the City Government’s full support on this project, and we promise to bring the Jaycees an event they will never forget,” Mayor Hagedorn said.

Initially, he has offered the free use of the nearly 10,000 sitting capacity Puerto Princesa City Coliseum for all the events of the forthcoming national convention. The place is located in Barangay San Pedro, and has been the venue of large concerts, graduation ceremonies, convention and other events.

Mayor Hagedorn said the City Government will be honored to welcome the Jaycees in Puerto Princesa to personally demonstrate to them what it is all about and why it is slowly becoming a model in sustainable development compared to other highly urbanized cities in the country.
