Pag-IBIG opens branch in Bogo

CEBU, Philippines - Pag–IBIG Fund Cebu North Branch officially opened its new office, the Bogo Service Center in Bogo City, Cebu. Bogo City is 105 kilometers away from its mother branch, the Pag–IBIG Fund Cebu North, thus the new office brings the services of Pag–IBIG Fund closer to its members.

Villegas, Regional Trial Court Sheriff Ms. Eva G. Ventic, City Health Officer Dr. Minerva A. Millor, City Assessor Engr. Wenceslao A. Cañete, DepEd Officer Mr. Oswaldo M. Argawanon, DBP Manager Ms. Felicitas M. Ruñez, LBP Manager Ms. Sol Fernandez and staff of the Cebu North Branch.

On its opening day, the Bogo Service Center was able to serve 25 clients concerning printout of contributions, Multi–Purpose Loans, membership verification and receiving of Multi–Purpose Loan applications. 

The Bogo Service Center will serve not only members from Bogo but also those from the municipalities of Tabuelan, Borbon, Tabogon, Medellin, San Remegio, Daanbantayan including the three island municipalities of Sta. Fe, Bantayan and Madridejos.

In her speech, Cebu North Branch manager Jovelita V. Custodio said, “We are thankful to the City Government of Bogo through its Mayor, Hon. Celestino Martinez, Jr. for being generous and accommodating.” 

In response, Mayor Martinez, through Councilor Rodriguez, thanked Pag-IBIG Fund “for coming over so that our constituents will not travel far just to avail of the services they deserve.”  (FREEMAN)
