A Vibrant Day in Puerto
The morning sun cast a golden glow over Barangay Puerto as the community buzzed with anticipation. It was no ordinary day. *KSB goes to Puerto*, a meaningful outreach led by Cagayan de Oro City Mayor Rolando ‘Klarex’ Uy, had arrived to make a difference. Through the beloved **‘Klarex nga Serbisyo sa Baryo’ (KSB)** program, City Hall’s departments converged in the barangay, offering essential services with warm smiles and open hands.
The air was infused with a sense of unity. Residents came not just to avail themselves of free government services, but to personally connect with the people working behind the scenes for the city’s progress. The **Klarex administration**’s commitment was clear: government is not a distant institution—it’s here, in the streets and barangays, standing alongside the people it serves.
Services That Touch Lives
From medical check-ups to legal consultations, the offerings reflected the city’s dedication to improving everyday lives. The initiative aims to provide free government services and strengthen the city’s commitment to bringing the government closer to the people. Transitioning between different service booths, residents discovered how accessibility transforms necessity into empowerment.
Moreover, the program reinforced trust. By showing up consistently each week, the **KSB program** nurtures a relationship between the government and the community that goes beyond policy—it builds connection and mutual respect. For Barangay Puerto, that Saturday morning became more than a calendar event; it turned into a story of service, compassion, and hope.
The KSB initiative is proof that when leaders step into the neighborhoods, they bridge gaps that statistics and speeches can’t. Puerto experienced not just service delivery, but a heartfelt reminder: the city belongs to its people, and together, they can flourish.
