Teddy Molina - The Philippine Star

LAOAG CITY, Philippines - – The city government will confer the Order of Lam-ang award on Cardinal Orlando Quevedo for bringing honor to the city with his elevation to the College of Cardinals.

The Order of Lam-ang is the highest award the local government gives to its people who bring honor to Laoag.

Councilor Joseph Tamayo, who sponsored a resolution granting the award to Quevedo, said the country’s new cardinal deserves the citation, noting the honor he brought not only to the city, but to the nation.

Quevedo was born in Sarrat, Ilocos Norte, but grew up in Laoag. He served as archbishop of Nueva Segovia in Vigan before he was transferred to Cotabato, where he is currently based.
