MAYOR BENG CLIMACO has appealed to residents to help the local government in the campaign to keep Zamboanga City clean and maintain discipline and be partners in progress and development.
Climaco, who regularly went around inspecting different areas, noticed how people just threw away their trash on the streets and some even urinate on public walls and corners.
And these problems were being used by some people in demonizing the public by spreading fake news, false information and even disinformation campaign and hatred while playing deaf and blind to the efforts of the local government in maintaining cleanliness and discipline among residents.
Climaco said the local government can only do so much in as far as keeping Zamboanga clean with the cooperation of the people without complaining and comparison with other cities. “We love to complain. We love to compare, but what do we contribute? That is my challenge to the people. Contribute positively and I said that in my inaugural message. I said during the maiden session of the City Council and I will say it again, the City of Zamboanga will only be successful if we contribute positively our personal discipline,” Climaco said.
She said the people; the public in general, should also do their share to ensure the cleanliness of the city. “No mas buta basura areredor,” she said, stressing that the City Government has provided dozens of garbage trucks and employed trash collectors, but public cooperation is still needed to ensure cleanliness and discipline among residents.
Aside from cleanliness campaign, Climaco said motorists and public transport drivers can do so much to ensure traffic orderliness by strictly following traffic rules and regulations. (Zamboanga Post)
