Governor Eugenio Jose Lacson led the inauguration and turnover of the two-storey four-classroom building of Tortosa Elementary School in Brgy. Tortosa and the Balulan Bridge in Brgy. Punta Salong, Manapla, Thursday, December 2.
The governor was welcomed and assisted by Manapla Mayor Manuel Escalante III, Vice Mayor Edgar Pagayonan, SB Members, teachers and other local officials, a press release from the Capitol said.
