MAITUM, Sarangani (December 18, 2007) - Diana Ross Mayled, girl-member of the Sangguniang Bayan, stresses a point during the regular session Tuesday, December 18, with guidance from SB member James Ablog. 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.
