DAVAO CITY- FIRST Congressional District Representative Paolo Z. Duterte has again made a name this year as the “Leadership Achiever as Public Servant” in the Elite Business & Leadership Awards ceremony at Philippine Plaza Manila in Pasay City on December 18.
The Elite Business & Leadership Awards honors and acknowledges the distinctive, dedicated, and genuine leadership of accomplished leaders globally, providing them with a professional boost to strengthen their influence.
Rep. Duterte thanked the award-giving body and regarded his award as a shared success for Davaoeños and the Filipino people. He said the recognition of his office’s work is not their end goal; it is the improvement of the lives of the Filipinos they served.
“This [award] is for Dabawenyos and the Filipino people who have put their trust and confidence in our public service. This signifies the effectiveness of our partnership with our local and national leaders as we bring our programs and services closer to Filipino families,” Rep. Duterte said.
The power behind the ELITE awards is Triumph International Events Innovation and Marketing Co. Inc. (TIEIMCI), a business existing under the laws of the Philippines. The Triumph, registered under the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), delivers outstanding awards bi-annually.
Last month, Rep. Duterte was also cited as “Honorary Congressman of the Year” in the Nation Builders and Mosliv Awards ceremony in Manila. He received recognition for crafting several legislative measures that contributed significantly to the country’s sustainable development.
For the lawmaker, an unspoken qualification upon entering public service and throughout their tenure is the commitment to enhancing the public’s well-being and instigating positive transformations.
Rep. Duterte always underscores community service and ensures human security. His principles come from his upbringing in a secure family and his belief that having a blessed life must be spent well-serving others.
