Baguio City: Ranked 4th Most Improved City in the Philippines in 2019

Cordillera - Baguio City was hailed as the fourth Most Improved Highly Urbanized City in the country this year, a huge leap compared to its previous ranking in 2018. 


The Department of Trade and Industry (DTI) - Competitiveness Bureau released the result during the 7th Regional Competitiveness Summit on Thursday October 24, 2019 at the Philippine International Convention Center.

Baguio placed fourth in the "economic dynamism" category behind Cagayan de Oro, Bacolod and Paranaque.

Economic dynamism measures the economic activity and productivity of the local government in a particular city jurisdiction. 

The rankings of cities and municipalities are based on the ratings of the four pillars which include economic dynamism, government efficiency, infrastructure and resiliency.

Hay naku. Ang daming pessimists sa mundo. Pwede ba let's be happy muna at least umarangkada ang Baguio. "Problema sa traffic?" Kung walang parking space huwag bumili ng sasakyan. May law tayo na ganyan if I remember correctly. At tsaka ang sabi tumaas ang "economic activity and productivity" kaya 4th most improved city hindi sinabing dahil "walang traffic" or something along that line. Gashung talaga. Maging masaya naman kayo huwag yung hihilain niyo pa pababa sarili niyong tahanan. Jusko!

The ttaffic situation is being addressed but if you think it will be an easy solution, then you are wrong. It will take years before a major solution can be achieved. Right now traffic specialist are on the job. Keep the faith. Hopefully a manageable solution can be provided.
