Mayor James “Bong” Gordon Jr. extended his commendations for City Legal Officer Atty. Angelito Orozco at the flag raising ceremonies held last August 24, 2009 at the Rizal Triangle Multi-Purpose Covered Court.
This is connection with Orozco’s feat as 2009 “Most Outstanding Resident Ombudsman” given by the Association of Resident Ombudsmen in Government Agencies (AROGA-Philippines).
Atty. Orozco bagged the feat and was also elected as National Executive Vice-President of AROGA by the 228 resident ombudsmen and 104 chiefs of offices of local government units of the Philippines who convened last August 17-19, 2009 at the Grand Men Seng Hotel in Davao City .
Ombudsman Merceditas N. Gutierrez awarded the certificates of recognition to Orozco and presided the oath-taking ceremonies of the newly elected officials of AROGA.
“As a resident ombudsman, we are tasked to study systems and procedures vulnerable to corruption and make recommendations to improve them; report anomalies, irregular acts, unethical conduct or illegal activities committed by the officials and employees of the offices where they are assigned and in the gathering of evidence in the investigations of the same,” Orozco explained.
It can be recalled that Orozco also bagged the same award last year at the 1st National Convention of Resident Ombudsmen held at Baguio City. Atty. Orozco also authored the constitution and by-laws of AROGA-Philippines and served as the Executive Vice President for Luzon of the said organization.
