MAITUM, Sarangani (December 18, 2007) - Czarie Anne del Rosario, the town's girl-mayor, receives visitors Tuesday, December 18. The activity follows a municipal ordinance that boy or girl "officials" hold office to provide the youth insights on governance and to develop their potentials as future leaders and enlightened citizens. The "officials", elected thru secret balloting by the youth themselves, held the offices of the mayor, vice mayor, municipal councilors and department heads under the supervision of the true officials. Under the ordinance, every second week of December is a "boy/girl officials' week" in the municipality wherein youth ages 13-17 shall perform the duties and responsibilities of the positions they hold.
