Aquino III on his plan to synchronize barangay elections with the national elections and urging the Philippine Legislature for the immediate enactment of the desired enabling law.\u201d<br \/>\nPampanga FABC president and ex-officio Board Member Melchor Pingol said the resolution has been approved by the 21 heads of barangay associations in the province in a recent special assembly.<br \/>\n\u201cJust like our counterparts all over the country, we agree and support the clamor for the synchronization of barangay elections with national elections in 2016. That is why here in Pampanga, we are urging Congress to immediately facilitate the passage of a bill that will extend the term of office of barangay officials to six years with re-election, but in no case shall their term of office exceed two terms,\u201d said Pingol.<br \/>\nHe said that together with the national federation\u2019s two resolutions, the local Liga\u2019s plea will be submitted to President Aquino, Senate and the Lower House. \u201cWe also would provide the Department of Interior and Local Government a copy for their review.\u201d<br \/>\nMeanwhile, Pampanga FABC secretary Arnel Sicat of the City of San Fernando said that synchronizing the two polls would be advantageous to barangay candidates.<br \/>\n\u201cWe could save on resources if our term of office is extended. The only concern we see here is that barangays are non-partisan. If synchronized, there might be a tendency of partisanship since we will be included in the list of other higher candidates for selection and voting,\u201d said Sicat.<br \/>\nHe added that by the end of this month, ABCs in the municipal level will gather again to discuss such concern.<br \/>\nhttp:\/\/www.sunstar.com.ph\/pampanga\/local-news\/2012\/04\/17\/village-chiefs-want-polls-synchronized-216599<\/p>\n<p>Pampanga is an important province of the Philippines slated to be the next business and tourism center of the country.
