The Vice President also praised the city’s continuous progress, citing its iconic natural wonders and thriving industries as symbols of development and resilience: “This harmonious development, from the majesty of Tinuy-an Falls to your thriving aquamarine industry, shows our nation that the communities with the deepest roots and strongest character are those that have learned to thrive through every challenge.”

Looking forward, she expressed her hopes for sustained growth in the years ahead: “May the next twenty-five years see you continue growing—rooted in your values, reaching toward new possibilities, and always ready to be the lifeline others desperately need. Padayon sa pag-uswag, Bislig ug mga Bisliganons. Happy 25th Charter Day!”
