Aris inaugurates Cabul-an genset

ICE-COLD beer, anyone?

Residents in Western and Eastern Cabul-an – two barangays in the lone island of Buenavista town can now enjoy ice-cold beer or soft drinks and freeze their freshly caught fish to preserve them for the next day or week rather than just dry them or soak them in brine.

This after Erico Aristotle Aumentado, namesake and son of the late solon who died on Christmas Day last year, recently inaugurated a generator set in West Cabul-an.

Aris who is running for a seat in Congress as replacement candidate for his father representing Bohol’s 2nd District said the project is among the favorites pushed by the solon for which he had poured a P350,000 counterpart from his Priority Development Assistance Fund (PDAF).

The local government unit under Mayor Ronald Lowell Tirol and the Department of Social Welfare and Development (DSWD) through its Millennium Challenge Corporation-Kapitbisig Laban sa Kahirapan-Comprehensive and Integrated Delivery of Social Services (MCC-Kalahi-Cidds) also put up counterparts for the P2.5-million electrification project.

DSWD Region 7 Dir. Mercedita Jabagat attended the inauguration and turnover rites with Aumentado and Tirol, hosted by Cabul-an West Barangay Captain Alfredo Tagsip and his constituents.
