Posted on July 2, 2007
Maribojoc - Newl-installed Mayor Leoncio “Boy” Evasco, Jr. spelled out his administration’s seven-point agenda as he was sworn in as this town’s chief executive in a ceremony held last June 28, 2007 at the sports and cultural center here.
Speaking before a mammoth crowd who witnessed the historic oath-taking rites, the clergyman-turned-politician stressed that livelihood tops his priority programs for the next three years.
Revival of arts and culture, sports development, effective waterworks system, mangrove plantation, planting of more trees, and public safety, peace and order comprise the new mayor’s core of his governance.

Mayor Evasco, mincing no words, dramatically extended his hand of reconciliation to Vice-Mayor Ben Redulla who ran in the opposite camp during the last electoral exercise, at the start of his well-applauded inaugural address.
