CITY OF SAN FERNANDO – In his first flag raising ceremony as Governor, Dennis ‘Delta’ Pineda ordered Capitol employees to strictly implement a “no delay” policy in paperwork, especially when it comes to salary and benefits.
“First order ko ngayon, ayokong magkakaroon ng delay ang salary ng mga empleyado. Gusto ko makilala ninyo ako kaagad sa first day ng trabaho ko. Kilalanin ninyo akong maigi, gusto kong ipakilala ang sarili ko sa inyo kung ano ako, magkakaroon tayo ng kaunting changes, tapatin ko na kayo, isa akong disiplinadong tao, gusto ko disiplinado ako, mga tao ko, at kayo gusto ko disiplinado,” he said.
The newly-installed Governor also told employees to observe the working hours and to wear proper uniform.
“Kung ano yung binabayad sa ‘tin ng gobyerno, gusto ko ibalik natin ng tama. Sa oras ng pasok natin, 8 to 5, ibigay mo yan. Ayokong may aalis ng mga post ninyo ng walang paalam sa department heads ninyo. Even yung mga department heads, h’wag na h’wag kayong aalis sa office ninyo ng walang abiso sa opisina ko. Also, Wear your IDs pagpasok ng Capitol, tandaan ninyo, maraming hindi naka-ID sa inyo, wear your proper uniform pagpasok ng Kapitolyo, Monday to Friday, dapat nakauniform kayo,” Gov. Pineda said.
Gov. Pineda also mentioned that every employee has the right to voice out their opinion, if there is something wrong in his administration.
“Open po ang opisina ko para pakinggan kayo, puntahan niyo lang po ako,” he added.
According to him, now as the Father of the province, he will not allow any abuse to reign at the Capitol. For him, to greet and to guide Kapampangans who visit the Capitol offices is a must.
“Please, alam ko hindi ninyo trabaho ito, pero kapag may pumasok sa Kapitolyo, mayaman man ‘yan o mahirap, always greet them and guide them kung may pupuntahan silang opisina na hindi nila alam,” he furthered.
For the Governor, every employee must have maximum tolerance when it comes to people who ask assistance from their offices.
“Maximum tolerance po tayo sa mga Kapampangan na lumalapit sa atin, please do not fight them, especially inside the Capitol, not here,” he said.
Moreover, Gov. Pineda asked everyone to be a role model to one another, particulary the elected officials and department heads.
“Bilang Governor ninyo, gusto ko sa akin magsimula, at sa mga leader, nang sa gayon, pamarisan tayo ng mga empleyado ng Kapitolyo,” he added. #
