To augment the infra-related operations of the municipal government, the administration of Mayor Ernesto “Tatay Erning” Evangelista has procured a hydraulic excavator through the Office of the Municipal Economic Enterprise Development and Management under the helm of MEEDMO Manager Gary Recto.

The heavy equipment pegged at P2.2 million was found to be compliant to the technical specification required by the Santo Tomas LGU.

On Tuesday, Jan. 18, Evangelista led the ceremonial blessing of the hydraulic excavator together with Rev. Fr. Edgardo Bonghanoy, MEEDMO Manager Gary Recto, and personnel from MEEDMO. Evangelista said the newly-acquired heavy equipment will help the municipal government improve public infrastructure and enhance accessibility through the creation of new roads, especially in remote barangays. READ MORE
