“It motivates me to continue striving for excellence in service.”

Ito ang reaksiyon ni House Speaker Martin Romualdez sa natanggap niyang “Outstanding Public Servant Year 2023” award nitong Miyerkules, Pebrero 7.

Ang naturang parangal ay iginawad ng independent at non-commissioned survey group na RP-Mission and Development Foundation Inc. (RPMD) kay Speaker Romualdez at kaniyang asawang si Tingog Party-list Rep. Yedda Marie Romualdez.

“I am profoundly honored and deeply grateful to receive this recognition. It is not just a personal accolade but a testament to the collective efforts and dedication of everyone who has supported and worked alongside me in serving our nation,” pahayag ni Speaker Romualdez nang tanggapin ang parangal sa seremonya ng RPMD.

“This award serves as a reminder of the responsibilities entrusted to me by the Filipino people, and it motivates me to continue striving for excellence in service," dagdag pa niya.

Ayon sa RPMD, ipinakita ni Speaker Romualdez ang kaniyang dedikasyon sa serbisyo publiko sa pamamagitan ng kaniya umanong paghahangad ng mga patakarang pinakikinabangan ng mga Pilipino.

Mayroo din daw siyang “strong political will” at “clear vision” para sa hinaharap ng bansa.

“Speaker Romualdez's achievements stand as a testament to his outstanding leadership qualities and his deep-rooted commitment to serving the nation,” pahayag ng RPMD.

Samantala, binanggit din ng RPMD na pinarangalan naman nila si Rep. Romualdez, chairperson ng House Committee on Accounts, dahil nilampasan daw nito ang limitasyon ng “traditional party-list representation” pagdating sa pagseserbisyo.

“Her efforts have earned her national recognition, consistently placing her as the number one-party list representative. Her work has resonated deeply across the diverse fabric of Filipino society, touching the lives of citizens across all social strata,” saad ng RMPD.
