[edit]

[edit]

Governor Ricarte R. Padilla, the incumbent Governor of Camarines Norte. He known as "Dong" or "Kuya Dong". Prior to his current role, Governor Padilla served as the Mayor of the Municipality of Jose Panganiban in Camarines Norte for 3 consecutive years. During his tenure, Jose Panganiban was able to achieve a commendable performance in the Commission On Audit's annual evaluation. COA accorded J. Panganiban the so-called "unqualified" recognition, which means it had a perfect resource utilization performance.[1]

Governor Dong hails from a family deeply rooted in politics, with his mother having served as a municipal councilor and his father as the former governor of Camarines Norte.[2] In his inaugural address as Municipal Mayor in 2013, Governor Padilla emphasized the importance of unity, principles, and virtuous governance in driving the success and prosperity of a municipality.

As a man of faith, Governor Dong's commitment to serving both God and country, as encapsulated in his governance tagline "Alay sa Diyos, at sa Bayan", is said to be guiding his actions during his three consecutive terms as Mayor of Jose Panganiban from 2010 to 2019.[2][3]

While Governor Dong faced a setback in the 2019 elections when he vied for the Vice-Gubernatorial position under the National Unity Party (NUP), his public service propelled him to run for the Gubernatorial seat in the 2022 National and Local Elections.[4] Despite challenges such as limited resources and formidable opponents, Governor Padilla's was able to secure his victory as the new Governor of the province and was inaugurated in June 2022.[5][6][7][8][9]

Carrying forward his catchphrase of "Alay sa Diyos, Alay sa Bayan", Governor Padilla's vision for the province includes elevating its status to one of the premier First Class Provinces in the Bicol Region, with key initiatives focusing on enhancing healthcare, promoting education by ensuring college graduation for at least one member of every family, revitalizing critical infrastructures like the Sea Port and Airport, supporting local farmers, and generating employment opportunities for the populace.[10][11][12][13]
