Many residents in Davao City’s hinterland barangays are eager to experience the governance of mayoralty candidate Atty. Karlo Nograles if he wins in the May 2025 elections.

A resident from Baguio District expressed his hope that Nograles would implement a faster and more efficient business permit processing system. He highlighted how the current process is costly and time-consuming, especially for those living far from the downtown area.

Aside from streamlining bureaucratic procedures, the resident also looks forward to potential development projects under a Nograles administration. He hopes to see progress reach the city’s rural communities, ensuring that economic growth and essential services extend beyond the urban center.

As the election approaches, Nograles’ vision for an inclusive and progressive Davao City continues to resonate with voters, particularly those in far-flung areas who seek improvements in governance and accessibility to services.
