Monday, July 2, 2012
CEBU CITY -- Mayor Mike Rama delivers his State of the City Address (Soca) at 4 p.m. today, Monday, at the Plaza Sugbu in this city.
Attending the event are City Hall employees and some members of the City Council. Members of the different sectors in the city, as well as former Cebu congressman Tony Cuenco and Governor Gwen Garcia are also around to listen to Mayor Rama's speech.

Among the updates:

- Tight security for Cebu City Mayor Michael Rama's state of the city address (SOCA), which is on going right now at the Plaza Sugbo. Aside from the uniformed and non-uniformed policemen deployed in the venue, two policemen from SWAT (snipers) were deployed at the rooftop of the MCWD building. Security cameras were also installed around the venue. Via DYLA on FB.

- ‎"Daghan og kwarta ang dakbayan sa Sugbo", Mayor Michael Rama declared in his SOCA

- Mayor Michael Rama announced that senior citizens will be getting P4,000 on December this year after the distribution of P3,000 each last month. Which means, that senior citizens can get a total of P7,000 this year. Rama announced that on 2013, another P3,000 will be added, so a total of P10,000 financial benefits. And in the following year, another P2,000 will be added or P1,000/month will be given to senior citizens. Earlier he said, the city will give out glasses to each of the senior citizens. "Nganong masuya man sila nga kitang tanan mahimo man nga senior citizens?"

- Mayor Michael Rama criticized the person (obviously referring to Tomas Osmena) who proposed for the closure of thge CCMC. "Asa naman paingon ang mga pobre? Then he asked the crowd "Uyon ba mo nga ipasira ang CCMC?" the crowd said "dili". Rama also criticized the plan that Guba Hospital will be co-managed by the Vicente Sotto Memorial Medical Center, saying the terms and conditions in the MOA are highly questionable. Though he only referred those responsible as the father and daughter , but he obviously criticized former Rep. Raul del Mar and daughter Cutie del Mar.

- Mayor Michael Rama announced that he did not agree on the anti-corporal punishment ordinance and will veto it. He said the ordinance is anti-poor.

Issue of the DAY:

Mayor Michael Rama declares in his SOCA 1) Daghan og kwarta ang dakbayan sa Sugbo 2) himoon nang P7,000 ang cash aid sa mga senior citizens karong tuiga; sa 2013 himoon nang P10,000 ug kung siya pay mayor sa 2014, himoong P1,000 per month, manghatag sab og glasses 3) Dili ipasira ang CCMC ug dili ipa-co-manage ang Guba Hospital sa VSMMC, 4) road widening maoy unahon, dili ang flyover. I-veto ang anti-corporal punishment ordinance kay anti-poor. (Sa inyong tan-aw, real state of the city address or political campaign speech?
