Sandoval’s leadership performance is anchored on her Lucky 9-Point Agenda which seeks to improve service delivery across the economy, healthcare, environment, infrastructure, livelihood, employment, tourism, and other social programs.
The first three priority thrusts focus on supporting businesses, boosting the economy and expanding livelihood opportunities.
Held at the Malabon Sports Center, Sandoval’s Ulat sa Malabueños’ showcased the progress on various programs she implemented including the Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises Trade Fairs, job forums which engaged over 5,000 participants and directly supported local producers, vendors, and entrepreneurs while strengthening market access for agri-food enterprises.
